Weather: hot. humid. What the heck October? How’s bout a little crisp in the air will ya? I gots some Uggs to wear for God’s sake.
Thang:
Full disclaimer: this was originally attempted about 6 months ago by Your Boy. The main idea behind this Q is to have as much mumblechatter as possible. There’s no counting, no running. You don’t even have to leave the warmup circle. Personally, I had a blast then so I felt a re-do was in order. Here goes:
- circle up. Start Bluegrass-only playlist. Do called exercise until song is over. The trick is to use ‘random’ for the playlist so the Q doesn’t know how long each exercise will last.
- there are coupons to share as well: 2 blocks, 2 rocks, 2 Bing Brick Things.
- If you don’t have a coupon in your hands, you did the following per song:
- Mtn Climbers
- Monkey Humpers
- Merkins
- LBC’s
- Slow Squats
- WW2’s
- Plank Jacks
- Jane Fondas
- Wide Arm Merkins
- Dying Cockroach
- Lunges
- Diamond Merkins
- Seal Burpees
- V Ups
- Plank
- Crossfit Situps
- Flutterkicks
- Hand Release Merkins
- Pretzels
If you had coupons, you did Curls, Russian Twists, Overhead Press, or Goblet Squats

1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have rec’d to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms
Dear Dairy:
The reason we use Bluegrass is several: 1) the songs are, on average, shorter than your typical song which allows for a greater variety of exercises 2) bluegrass is just damn good stuff 3) see #2 4) would you have rather me played Mountain Jam (Allman Bros) and/or Free Bird (you know who)?
Beaker tells us he hates shoes. Who hates shoes? Who does he think he is, Johnny Appleseed?
The order of exercises was called into question by Publix. I just so happened to call Seal Burpees when I rec’d a coupon (therefore excusing myself from having to do them)….this was fake news but we switched it up anyway so I could do the SB. News flash: they still suck bad
The thought of a constant exercise workout is appealing to me. Add bluegrass to that and it’s possibly the most perfect formula ever.
Dollars to doughnuts says that at least one of the Pax tuned in to 88.7 on the way home to hear some more of those sweet sounds
88.7 plays Mountain Mornings from 6 – 7 every AM. Your boy here listens to that on the way home each day. Good stuff. Get some.
There was one song that lasted about 45 seconds. It’s “Yall Come” by Bill Monroe. Sorta wish it would have come on for the seal burpees call.
Retread is the only other Pax that I know for sure listens to bluegrass and he’s fartsacked for both of these Q’s now. I’m getting a complex.
There was no Tub Thumping by Chubawamba – sorry to disappoint those that wanted to get knocked down
