Alcatraz was full of the normal Saturday chatter with the expected return of F3 Aquaman. In addition, F3 Prosciutto was visiting from Chattanooga, TN with an FNG in tow. His name, Heater, given based on his pre-workout ritual. On the Rocks led with the disclaimer and a lap around the field. Next, we ran several rounds on sprints and circled up for the following warm-up exercises:
SSH
Imperial Walker
Windmills
Squats
LBCs
Next, we ran over to the baseball field and split into two groups. The first group bear crawled to second base while the second group performed wall sits. We switched up after the completion of the exercises. Next, the first group ran to the outfield fence while the other group performed balls to the wall (switched when complete).
We then circled up for a merkin wave up to ten, followed by a crowd favorite, the grave digger. On the Rocks finished with the merkin caterpillar.
Next, we headed to the hill to reduce some of the chatter from the regulars. We ran to the bottom of the hill and waited for all to reach the bottom. The group was instructed to sprint to the top of the hill. After a quick ten count, we split into teams of two. The first person ran to the bottom of the hill and back to the top while the other person performed an exercise (merkins, squats, LBCs). Once complete, they switched.
After a couple ten counts, we moseyed to the landscape timbers for derkins, step-ups, and more LBCs. We finished up in the parking lot with some paver exercises (overhead presses, curls, burpees, and LBCs).
Great job by all. I mentioned during the workout that this time of year is very difficult for some people due to events in their lives, issues with depression, struggles with substance abuse. I challenged each person reach out to these family members or friends and tell them you love and care about them. These simple words go a long way.
