Rockin’ to the beat

Leave a comment

Well… maybe not rockin. I searched for some good 80’s songs to get us thru the hour. I came across a few that were way too motivating (picture really big guys in a gym lifting really big weights) so I obviously couldn’t use those. The ones I chose where classics – and they are ranked on many lists as being the worst songs of the 80s. Now that’s motivation!

The third virtual Monterey beatdown brought out the first east-coaster and all that east coast banter I have heard so much about, too! It was a treat for sure.

Edison’s 2.0s appeared and one completed the entire workout! Props to him! Bill-E-Goat from Phoenix joined in with an awesome chalk wall behind him! And thanks to those from Hanger1 & Quick Silver who have attended all three of Monterey’s virtual beatdowns.

Thank you to everyone that attended today. You are helping make us stronger.

Warmup (All IC)
10 Cherry Pickers (Flea style)
20 IW
30 Moroccan Night Clubs
40 Copper Head Sqauts
50 SSH

The Thang
For the 80s songs we did 5 reps of two exercises adding 5 reps to each for the balance of the song. I thought we’d all finish (at 30 reps each) before the end of the songs but it turned out, to YHCs joy, we got to the end of the songs before the pax reached the 30 reps!

5 LBCs / 5 Shoulder Taps
Song Choice: Ricks Astly “Never Going to Give You Up”

1 min hopping Left / Right

5 Gas Pumps / 5 Hello Dollies
Song Choice: Billy Ocean “Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car”

Tabata style squats. Not an 80’s song but a great workout. Link to Tabata song / squat video Honestly one of my favorite things in life is coming out of the low squat to start another round. What does that say about me?

5 Merkins / 5 Seal Jacks
Song Choice: Men Without Hats “Safety Dance”

1 minute hopping front to back

5 flutter kicks / 5 plank jacks (YHC almost completed this one and was upset when the song ended.)
Song Choice: Nena “99 Luftballoons”

1 minute monkey humpers

Now on to another non-80s song but a favorite of YHCs. Chumbawamba “Tubthumping” Burpee when they are singing “I get knocked down” and SSH otherwise. Honestly it was more brutal this go around than it has ever been before. I think staying in one place adds a new layer of brutality to this F3 thing. YHC likes to run around during his normal Qs.

1 min high / low plank (Or for those on concrete squats, arm raises, etc.)

5 Mountain Climbers / 5 Aussie Burpees
Song Choice: Stacey Q “Two of Hearts”

And to finish it up “Bring Sally Up” push up challenge. YHC impressed by the east coasters vigilance to complete Sally. YHC switched to squats and air presses. I have to check the F3 rule book… if you can’t do it, don’t Q it?
