End of the Road

WARMUP: Yea, this is important.
SSH
IW
HW
Plank sequence
Included some dynamic stretching

THE THANG:
String of Pearls
5 burpees
10 merkins
15 squats
20 lunges
25 ……. something

added an exercises each stop. (e.g., first stop = burpees only, second stop = burpees and merkins, etc.)

the 25 rep count was one of the previous exercises. So, when we found the literal end of the road it was stop 5 and we did:
5-burpees
10-merkins
15-squats
20-lunges
25-burpees in cadence

Next end of the road stop was
5-burpees
10-merkins
15-squats
20-lunges
25-merkins

Ran out of time before finding all the ends of the road.

MARY: did imperial squat walkers at COT for the 6….that’s kinda a core exercise, right?
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Food Drive happening now. Thanksgiving Convergence at the Ranch
COT: was held

NMM:

When you find yourself at the end of the road, your left with the same resources that got you there. Gotta use them to get moving again!

I heard a reference to a “second starting” line in terms of my mammon (teaching music). That is: once we learn the notes and rhythms, there’s a second starting line. We’re finally ready to make art rather than simply craft.

When you hit end of a road, turn around and think of it as the second starting line. Ain’t nothing to it, but to do it.
