Northeast Tennessee

A “Q” Designed for the Cold

Northeast Tennessee Arrowhead (Indian Trail) Johnson City

It was 260 degrees. It was -12 degrees. It was 9 degrees. Whatever scale you choose, it was cold enough for YHC to develop a Q with the temperature in mind. 6 brave Pax said they’d give it a shot, because as we all know, the worst weather is mid 30s and rain. So what does a Q with the weather in mind, mean? It means activate those big muscles with no touching metal, no grabbing coupons, no sprinting, and only short bursts of touching the ground. It also means a playlist of heat-related songs – we turned the Fire on High.

THE THANG
Great Balls of Fire, there are 36 available parking spots along the playground side of lot. With an entry ticket of 10 Australian Snow Angels and an exit ticket of 10 Freddie Mercuries (4-ct), Pax made there way through this Ring of Fire.

First time through – 1 rep at each parking spot. Complete the merkins, pay your tickets, and mosey back to the beginning to start squats. That’s some Burning Love.

  • Mountain Man Poopers

Pax needed to be reminded that they can stand back up with the other leg (if they wanted). Since 1 rep didn’t fully Light My Fire, Pax did a second round of each exercise Through the Fire and Flames and did 2 reps at each parking spot. That turned out to be a Fireball because 2 merkins around spot 27 started to feel like it was getting Hot in Herre. Bobber was ahead of the group, thinking This is Why I’m Hot.

Time expired as we worked through the parking spots, thinking about Summertime.

Take a break from screens. Read a book. Pull out an old toy or craft.

None, except for Jobs being disappointed by the Steelers HC hire. But if you’ve read this far, you may be able to feel your fingers again.
