Bandersnatch 3/31/2021

Q: Beach

Disclaimer Given

Seven pax turned out, including guest Sunshine from out of town.

Warmup: Sidestraddle Hops, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Copperhead Squats, Bat Wings. Some mumble chatter and facial anguish was observed during Bat Wings.

The Thang: Interactive workout inspired by the movie Bandersnatch. Pax determine what the workout will be. Mosey to the beach. Two lines drawn in the sand. Repeated sprints from one line to the other. Fastest pax to the other line determines the exercise and reps. Each time you are the fastest pax, you increase your sprint handicap by one burpee. Exercises chosen by pax were Bat Wings, Monkee Humpers, Copperhead Squats, Lunges, Chilcutt Peter Parkers, 1 minute Plank, Merkens, Bear Crawls, Nipplers, Burpees, Mike Tysons, Sidestraddle Hops, Don Quixotes, and Groiners. This may not be a complete list, as Q’s memory relies upon an aging brain. Mosey back to flag.

COT, Counterama, Namerama. Quote from Theodore Roosevelt was read. Announcements: DPR wins the month of March prize for posting to every workout in March (challenge and prize initiated and provided by Cleveland Rocks). The Murph Challenge is coming up, on Memorial Day.

With Sunshine in The City Near The Painted Ladies

YHC had the honor of Q’ing for 5 pax in The City yesterday morning in the shadow of the Painted Ladies.

Disclaimer Given

Warm-up: Armies, cherry pickers, SSH, sun gods, all IC

The Thang: Mosey to the hill that you see above in the pic.

Start at top of the hill. Run to bottom and do 5 High Plank / Low Plank (Mahktar N’Diayes). Now run back up hill backwards and do 1 crowd pleaser. Repeat sequence adding 1 crowd pleaser each time. First one to 10 crowd pleasers calls it.

Start at the bottom of the hill. Bear crawl up the hill and do 5 squats. Crawl bear back down the hill and do 1 LBC. Repeat, adding 1 LBC until 1 pax member calls it after doing 10 LBCs.

Mosey around park doing last man sprints returning to the workout starting place. Most of the pax are runners and they set an aggressive pace for the last man sprinting. Add hills in the mix and YHC was in trouble.

Still some time on the clock and YHC didn’t want to let these city slickers down.

1 arm raise then 1 merkin, adding 1 of each until you reach 10 and then hold Al Gore until all have finished. YHC didn’t want to bring politics into the mix, but all that came to mind was to hold an Al Gore.

Still a little bit of time and the Pax said “Wow – no burpees in the workout.” So we had to do 10 burpees OYO. But time ran out and most only got in 2 or 3.

Count – o – rama

Name – o – rama (apologies to FNG toto. Is it too obvious to call someone from Kansas Toto? Toto does love dogs. But he also competed in a Funky Jesus contest (and got 2nd place!) YHC thought of so many better names after the workout…. YHC needs to think faster on his feet!

COT

Keep it up @sunshine. This AO is awesome and it is going to grow.

YHC and Q = Cleveland Rocks
