Tha Thang:
YHC decided to bring an internet meme into the real world. Rickrolling was when you got someone to click a link that would play Rick Astley’s “Never Going To Give You Up” song from 1987. The workout below was completed before YHC revealed this theme of the workout, which was based on the key lines from the chorus of this classic Canadian symphony.
Give Cindy Up – 4 minutes of exercise with the burn on the up motion
Overhead Press * 25 IC
Squat Jumps * 25 OYO
Overhead Press while holding Al Gore * 15 IC
Let Cindy Down – 4 minutes of exercise with the burn on the down motion
Tempo Merkins on the block * 10 IC
Tempo Squats while holding Cindy Overhead * 10 IC
Tricep Extensions, slow on the down, *10 IC
Repeat those 3 exercises a 2nd time
Run Around
Do a lap around the bus loop
Desert You
YHC pretended to be pissed at the PAX for not picking up the 6 at the end of the run. So I stormed off in “frustration” and left the PAX too Q for themselves for 4 minutes.
Make You Cry
Last Man Standing of Al Gore while holding cindy overhead – FroZone won
Monkey Humpers Ring of Fire – Each pax would call 5 Monkey Humpers IC, all PAX in the ring would do them. FroZone and R12 started with a slow cadence, the rest of us picked up the pace. There was definitely some crying by the end of this, by YHC as well.
Say Goodbye to Cindy
By Murder Bunny-ing her to the second tree (about 50 yards) and then rifle carrying her back to her home
Tell A Lie
The pre-blast for last night was zero burpees. That was a lie. 20 burpees OYO.
Hurt You – finish up with H.U.R.T.
Hammers * 25 IC
Uggggh Groiners * 10 OYO (not a lot of great ‘U’ exercises in the exocon)
Repeat – Real original exercise here, 10 more Groiners
Ten More Groiners – this was originally gonna be Tie Fighters (lunges with baby arm circles), but Bogey tried to predict the T, and I liked his suggestion.
At this point I revealed the theme. Zip Drive called it after I described Give Cindy Up. A few PAX had no clue what was going on. I played the song at the end though, successfully claiming a Rickroll by the Pooler OG on Colosseum.
We finished with some Mary … Freddy Mercs, Gas Pumpers, and Dying Cockroaches.
