Blimps are fun

Leave a comment

Another super humid morning but it was great seeing 11 other guys show up to get the day started right. Quick disclaimer then mosey around park stopping at each swing for 2 exercises. 10 counts of imperial Walker's, cherry pickers, tempo merkins, low slow squats, wide arm merkins, etc. Mosey down trail behind park to the grass hill for accumulating BLIMPS. 5 burpees, then either run up big hill or smaller side hill and return. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, nur up hill. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, 15 imp squat Walker's, bear crawl up hill (not my idea but someone really wanted to bear crawl). Same 5, 10, 15, then 20 merkins, run up hill. Same 5, 10, 15, 20, then 25 plank jacks and nur up hill. Last round 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 SSHs then mosey back to amphitheater. Partner up. P1 does flying squirrel while P2 holds plank. P2 drops to 6 inch plank hold and P1 jumps over. Repeat for total of 8 flying squirrels then flap jack. Yog around amphitheater then rinse and repeat. Yog back to COT for a few ab exercises then times up. Appreciate the opportunity @U08QLQH6J68

Don’t get lost

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Nope – it’s a running AO
THE THANG: Run into Massey for 4-5 miles – Neff Ct to Dudley to Felts to Kingsbottom and back.
MARY: Nope – it’s a running AO
ANNOUNCEMENTS: always
COT: 5th core principle

It was great to get a yog in on the east side and not get lost (thanks for the fellowship Time Machine).

Vuvu and Farmers Only are still fast and Grout has joined in their fast nonsense.

12 in the cold means choosing the tougher thing. Thanks for the opportunity Time Machine.

So this workout was one of many that remind me why we do what we do.
Unexpected FNG came out this am, dudes an ex marine and a solid dude. Knew we would be there. But really it’s because every single man made a decision they weren’t going to leave the next man hanging. That’s why we post in unpleasant conditions, wee hours of the morning and in some cases with little sleep the day after a birthday where it would have been nice to sleep in if I’m being honest. I wouldn’t have been there for my brothers, and I also wouldn’t have gotten to see Private Dancer who came up from Florida, Dear Abby from Chicago, Boomhaur on his second post, met Hershey and MP, and gotten to see DH do some DH ish, with an FNG onboarding and so and and so on….So all in all a great morning. Welcome Body Butter!

The workout itself, well that’s another story. I wouldn’t say I regret it but I am going to be feeling that one for a few days…
