Sneaky miles

Leave a comment

WARMUP: mosey to a church lot for 16 counts of various exercises including windmills, imperial and hillbilly walkers, merkins (s/c), Broga poses, should taps and mountain climbers

THE THANG: mosey to another lot for 16’s counting down or up by 2’s – flying squirrels at one end and squats at another

Mosey to another lot for 7’s – diamond merkins, run, lunges and nur.

Mosey back up the hill to the lot of exfoliation: 16’s but going up or down by 1 each time: merkins mosey two lights, LBC’s with exfoliation and mosey back – rinse and repeat. We got to 7 & 9 and 0600 was upon us and almost 2 miles under our belts.

MARY: no time for it
ANNOUNCEMENTS: happened
COT: happened too

The blessing of fellowship at every workout is a sustaining thing for all of us. I was grateful for that this morning in a small but meaningful group of HIM.

Dojo – thanks for the call out. You were missed. Bonsai & Short Sale – thanks for joining YHC. It was a pleasure to be in your company this morning in the gloom and go 1-0 on the day.

Gratefully,
Cyclops

BandCamp’s Revenge 🙄

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey to smooth pavement.  IW x 10;  WM x 10;  LSS x 10;  AP x 10

THE THANG:  Rugby Sprints – duh. 🙄 Ground exercise followed by hard sprint and back followed by quick recovery [TWSS!].   Times 5 reps times 3 sets.  

Talked about forgiveness (example – admit your sins to a trusted source – voice your forgiveness to others – get out of your head and on with your life).  

Move over to the Hill – you know the one 🤷🏻‍♂️.   5 Flying Squirrels followed by a sprint up and run back – x 3 times.  

MARY:  6-ish minutes of abdominal exercises – someone called them out – there – are you happy?!?

ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Give to the Dam to Dam fundraising – it’s the actual point where F3 hits community leadership.  For real!

COT:   @Sprocket took us out because he’s the kind of guy you want covering your back – we prayed for all of our souls and the souls of those we love. Aye!

Stairs are fun

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We got our getty up on right out of the gate with a mosey around the big church parking lot and back to COT. SSH we’re up next, cherry pickers, low slow squats, merkins, and finished up with honeymooners and down dogs.
THE THANG: took off from COT over to the church down the street where we paired up for some Dora. Partner one ran around the church but then up and down the big set of steps before tagging partner 2.

Dora 1 was: 100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 shoulder taps.

Moved to spot #2 which was the big parking lot across from the stairs that have all the steps and about 8 sets you can snake. We changed up Dora partners for Dora #2.

Dora 2 was: 100 lunges, 200 American hammers, 300 calf raises.

Changed to last set of partners where we made our way back to COT. On the way back we found the small set of stairs at the church by the ramp and snaked those with our partners, then over to Church of God big set of steps where we snaked all those sets of steps with our partners. Then back to COT.

MARY: Around the circle for Mary call outs. Pretty sure this was Hemingway’s first time calling cadence and he’s potentially got a career here. Unlike his old man, he called something other than gas pumpers.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2Dbar big pickups
COT: Prayers for Slash and his family
