Hominy is tired, and he is improvising.

Leave a comment

I improvised this plan

Warmup exercises, slightly off from the normal warmup location.

Slow mosey around the grounds, around Lowe’s towards the Chick-fil-a parking lot. Stopped to do some extended planks, stopped to do a few exercises in cadence.

At the Chick-fil-a parking lot. Did an 80-160-240 DORA. Merkins. Squats. LBC.

I didn’t do burpees because I am fundamentally opposed to burpees in a moderate workout. However, before I finished explaining that, some PAX already cranked out a couple of burpees.

Bear crawl across the Chick-fil-a parking lot.

Mosey back to COT area.

Sevens. Calf raises on curb and merkins.

Mary. Peach Stand called Freddy Mercuries. Some others called a few exercises; I don’t remember which exercises anybody else called. I closed us out with an exercise right at 0600 on the dot.

COT. Peach Stand and Marty Byrde had to leave early. We were down to 5. What is said in COT stays in COT, but I can tell you that we shared some good stuff. Sometimes it’s easier to open up with a smaller number of PAX.

Never Forget

Leave a comment

Driving to the AO this morning, I saw @U014K6EAUFM running done 160 carrying a shovel flag to #C0A6CS739NW . Great reminder for the community to never forget 9/11. If you have ever carried a shovel flag for an extended period of time, you know this was not an easy task.
The workout began with the typical warmup exercises then a quick mosey to the far parking lot. We partnered up and began a AB Dora 100 V-ups, 200 flutters, and 300 LBCs.
Next, we did a few versions of the cocaine bear, merkins and CCDs. A version with lunges and squats.
I few minutes left to mosey back to COT and a few more Ab exercises

Keep it close

Leave a comment

WARMUP: windmills, cherry pickers, planks, down and up dogs, Peter Parker’s, shoulder taps – many in cadence
THE THANG: stations were marked in a row of parking spaces. In each was written an exercise. Pax selected a space and did the indicated exercise for the given count, and then moved one space to the left to do that exercise. Once the pax finished the last space in the row, they moseyed a lap of the parking lot and went to the first space to continue the circuit. Exercises in the spaces were LBCs, American hammers, gas pumpers, big boy sit ups, hello Dollies, flutters, Freddy mercuries, weezie Jeffersons, penguins.

Rep counts – first time through, 10, then 15, then 20, then 15, then COT
MARY: the whole workout was pretty much Mary. It seemed redundant to do more
