WARMUP: Lots of compliments about my Clemson hoodie especially from Assassin and Pusher. I think Backdraft wanted to punch me. JK. A little mosey after a few DIAs don’t ask. We did some dips, derkins, SSHs and various movements to get warmed up. All were warm with the hot air flying around from the mumble chatter.
THE THANG: pulled out the orange signs from the Yeti a while back. Lots of compliments on the visibility of them. NOT! 5 stations with 5 exercises at each stop. Stop 1. 25 reps – American hammers, mtn. Climbers, squats, SS hops, Rosalitas. Stop 2. 15 reps – merkins, big boy sit-ups, squats, LBCs, plank jacks. Stop 3 20 reps – monkey humpers, calf raises, sumo squats, seal jacks, weezy jeffersons. Stop 4. Reps 10 – flutters, SS hops, mtn. Climbers, American hammers, shoulder taps. Stop 5. Reps 30 – imperial walkers, Peter Parker’s, Parker peters, gas pumpers, hello dolly. Noted that @backdraft was concerned that the rep count didn’t increase as the stops progressed.
