Whipped out a swampy sweaty wienke with a shable

WARMUP: It was warm and schweaty.

Run around the perimeter of the parking lot with butt kickers, high knees, side shuffles and then circled up. SSH, windmill, cherry picker, low slow squats, merkins, honey nooner, down dog. Back to COT to grab the 40 bag.

THE THANG: Took the bag and pax over to bubbles and bows because they need a trim. This wienke was originally used at the Swamp in June 2019…oldie but goodie.

In a circle we numbered off to determine our order as 2 would follow 1, 3 follow 2 and so forth. Pax 1 would run to the other end of the parking lot to do shoulder presses, min 10 and max 25, and then handoff to 2. While pax 1 was on the bag, the remaining pax were doing exercises and pax 1 would pick up at the beginning or where they left off.

Exercises were: 25 bomb jacks, 50 jump squats, 75 calf raises, 100 SSH, 100 flutter right leg only, 75 CDD, 50 merkins, 25 burpees.

After the shoulder press and all pax completed this, next was 10/25 of curls. Then was 5 squats, then was 3 merkins with bag in your back. So continued to rotate the back as pax completed the 25-100-25.

Ran back to COT for a shable (a story in the tale of a fable authored by shady, shable). False ending so did a full lap around the parking lot, then back to COT.
MARY: went around the circle with stretching exercises called out…it was great.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: heard about how awesome HIM camp was, 9/11 on 9/9 event, newsletter
COT: old school CSPAN prayers and praises

Backwards accumulator with a touch of Apache

WARMUP: Wegs said peace out and ran away.  The rest of us stuck around.  Warmup stayed local at COT: SSH, cherry picker, low slow squat, merkins, windmill
THE THANG: We ran away from COT towards the bus loop and stopped at the corner for our first exercise…of the backwards accumulator.  Started out with 10 bomb jacks followed by Apache 10 count from Mainframe.  Next took off through the entrance and up to the front of the school for some Al gores while we waited and then did 20 diamond merkins along with the 10 bombs.  Here is where Senator gave us an old school Apache 10 count where we learned about this redwood’s history.  Next was back down to the corner where we stopped for 30…30 hammers, then the 20, then the 10.  Undertaker picked up the 6 before we got started, because that’s what we do.  Got us an Apache 10 from undertaker at this stop. We then ran to another entrance of the school for 40 squats, then 30 down to 10.  To the back of the school we packed in 50 flutters down to the 10.  Then we stayed there for 60 calve raises down to the 10.  Then we ran back to COT.  On the way, there may have been some merlot deposits but I think that’s what happens sometimes when you work extra hard and push…so good on you pax.
MARY: had a little time for some Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter goodies
COT: Wegs came back and left us without a wave.  So prayers for him, lol.

Omaha @ Tallawah

WARMUP: There was a significant emergency response at the WEP parking lot so we moved our kettle bells over to an adjacent parking lot. We moseyed over to the new playground which as we learned, due to the lack of pull up bars, is not as good as the old playground. We made due by doing some warm up exercises and made our way back to the bells. Now, due to a woman now working out solo by our kettle bells, we moved again to the long Springs parking lot.
THE THANG: Murder Bunnies 1/2 way down the parking lot (~25yds)
