Tabatas w/ Cindy

WARMUP: BandCamp warmed us up well with Broga, so it was SSH in Cadence x 25 and we were ready.
THE THANG: Took the Tabata theme I Q’d earlier in the week @ Bushwood to Varsity. Sorry Bobber. Since we were at Varsity thought what the hell, let’s throw in exercises with Cindy.

1 Tabata Round = 3 different exercises, 2 sets of each exercise backtoback, and then 1 set of each exercise all the way through for a total of 9 sets. 30 secs on and 10secs of rest = 4 1/2 min of exercise w/ 1 1/2 min of rest.
In between Tabata rounds we went to the pull up bars to monkey around. The flow is below:

1st Tabata Round
1st Exercise: CurltoCleantoPress with Cindy
2nd Exercise: Dead Lifts w/ 3 Rows completed at the bottom of the dead lift before coming back up with Cindy
3rd Exercise: Alt. forward lunge with a full rotational twist ( twist to both sides while holding the lunge position ) with Cindy

1st Pull Up Bar Routine – Challenge to the PAX was to complete the routine without coming off the bar.
1 Pull up – 1 Knee to Chest
1 Pull up – 2 Knees to Chest
1 Pull up – 3 Knees to Chest
1 Pull up – 4 Knees to Chest
1 Pull up – 5 Knees to Chest
1 Pull up
Completed 2 Rounds of the above.

2nd Tabata Round
1st Exercise: Kraken Man Makers – Man Maker performed with 3 block merkins.
2nd Exercise: BigBoy Situp into an American Hammer with Cindy ( At the apex of your BigBoy Situp complete an American Hammer, then come back down )
3rd Exercise: Sumo squats w/ 3 pulses at the bottom with Cindy pressed overhead

2nd Pull Up Bar Routine – Challenged Pax to stay on the bar to complete 1 round.
3 close grip chin ups, walk hands out on the bar to shoulder width apart and then perform 3 reg. chin ups, walk hands out on the bar to a wide grip and then perform 3 wide grip chin ups.
Completed 2 rounds of the above

3rd Tabata Round ( only had time enough to complete 1 set of each exercise )
1st Exercise: Perform a Merkin but hold at 6 inches and complete a Peter Parker, then complete the Merkin.
2nd Exercise: KB swings with Cindy
3rd Exercise: Perform a straight leg lift and hold with legs at apex, with Cindy in hand perform a crunch in an effort to reach your toes, then lower and upper halves come back to rest position ( rest position for lower half is 6 inches – don’t let your feet hit the ground )

MARY: N/A
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Mens’ Shelter 8/4, Final Countdown CSAUP, and probably a few others I forgot
COT: All PAX were asked to give a praise, prayer focused on being grateful to the point that it impacts those around you.

Bobby Hurley Hell

We were joined by Deadbolt from the Raleigh area. Got to talk a bit before we started, but gave disclaimer at 0515 and got started.

WARMUP;
Downward dog/honey mooner
SSH (IC – sort of…apparently I had inflection that made Poppins think we were stopping at 10).

THE THANG:
Moseyed over to back of school, balls to wall while each person does 3 burpees
Then did wall squats while PAX ran around the loop (another Poppins shout-out, this HIM is sneaky fast #sprinter)

Next we headed over by the band room area. We got to see the horses and YHC learned that is why it’s called the Ranch (#themoreyouknow)

@bobber asked if we’d get to do Bobby Hurleys like I called at a previous Q…he was excited when he heard what I had next..a Dora with:

100 lunges (single count leg)
200 Carolina dry docks
300 Bobby Hurleys (audibled to 250 when I recalled how awful these were and my form was getting pretty bad)
400 Freddy Mercury
Bonus round of burpees for a few of us as the last group finished.

Headed to the playground for a Pull up/merkins series (5 OYO/6 IC, 4/5, 3//4)

Sasquatch led some mountain climbers at COT while YHC grabbed my phone from the car to do video namorama!

Announcements: read your newsletter
Prayers: lots offered up.

Thanks @poppins for the opportunity to lead

Running with Burpees

WARMUP: PAX were disclaimed.  That is all.
THE THANG: 3.5 Mile route with 10 burpees every 1/4 mile. X marked the burpee spots. Speedy PAX got 4 miles and change. Us mere mortals did not.
MARY: 4 minutes of stretching with Stang
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Were announced
COT: Prayers and praises were offered

YHC is grateful for a tremendous group of HIM to help in acceleration and staying on the right path. The cooler temps and lower humidity was a blessing to start the week. Thanks to Badlands for the Q spot. It is always a privilege to lead.

Honored,
👁
