How to use a stopwatch

Leave a comment

Yes, it was raining at the ballroom. However, the most noticeable item was trying to figure out how to use the stopwatch on my iPhone. Through multiple failed attempts old Bass suggested that I ask Siri to do a timer for us which pretty much worked flawlessly.

We took a quick mosey to the only dry spot we could find down by the football field. Then moved into our series of Amrap exercises with a minute timer for each set. They started out as follows, wide arm merkins, regular Americans, mountain, climbers and shoulder taps all 10 reps each. The next set was leg exercises which included squats, sumo squats, calf raises, and monkey Humpers the next set included LBC‘s Weezy, Jefferson‘s American hammers and flutters. The final set side straddle hops jump squats overhead collapse, and Moroccan nightclubs did a few exercises in between, but mostly stayed with these four different sets. We stayed mostly dry until we had to head back to COT in it downpour on us we finished up with some abs and it’s about it.
