Taking the Conga Line Through Life

WARMUP: Bit of a mosey and short COP with mumblechatter from Bonsai on the Qs Disclaimer. No, it wasn’t perfect. It also wasn’t missed entirely (except you Bonsai).

THE THANG: Two sets of accumulator series 5x / 10x / 15x /20x / 25x with bear crawls or crawl bears in between. one series was all lower body, one all core. along the way we did a conga line mosey weaving through all the posts of the carpool awning at the school.

MESSAGE: Workout and message today were geared around life not moving in a straight line. it hasn’t for me in career, fitness, faith, marriage, finances, etc. there have been ups and downs and twists and turns. too often I fall into the trap of blaming myself or someone else for the downticks when in fact that’s just part of the journey. and in fact it’s those downticks when I have the most to learn and grow. so take the attitude about the #Suck from the Gloom and apply it to the #Suck in the rest of your life — Embrace It!

thanks for the invite Triple Lindy and the AKA spirit Funhouse and pax! always an honor to lead.

COT: It was Day 2 of AKA and we had a great showing and energy level. some new faces (FITS) and some welcome kotters (Naked and Afraid).

It’s cold, we are old

Circle up
Warm up
Light to light stuff, up to and including bear crawl
To the benches for dips, no derkins, not a fan
Over to four corners with burpees in the middle
Down the hill for exercises (accumulating), back to the top, 4 or 5 times
Back up to the school for the last few exercises

Good work by Sawdust and prob a couple others, maybe
Plenty of modify as needed
Plenty of piss poor counting
Plenty of questionable form

Thanks peanut gallery, I couldn’t do it without you.

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow
