Back in the Saddle

Woke upon 1/1 feeling healthy so I decided to just jump back in and take the Q at my home away from home.

Warmup was pretty basic

SSH
Windmill
Seal jacks
IW
Michael Phelps
Mount Climbers

Mosey to the hills past the apt complex.

Pendulum routine.

One side of the hills start at 20 reps then decrease by 4 each lap thereafter.

Werkins
Lunges
Flutters
Plank jacks

Run to the other side stopping in the middle for a squat… which increases by 1 rep each trip.

Other side start at20 reps decrease by 4 each lap

Diamond merkins
Calf raises
BBS
Shoulder Taps

Everyone got through it all with just enough time to get back to COT.

Thanks to all who showed. It was great getting back out there. Don’t take it for granted men. Being able to get out there and work is invaluable to your mental health as much as it is to your physical health.

See y’all out there!

3 Jolly Friends

WARMUP: Peta lead the group with a slow and steady warmup. Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walker, and SSH.
THE THANG: Half Shell took a mosey and we stayed near the original parking lot for a 12 days of Christmas session which included 1 location for merkins and another location for big boys with running between them. We missed 4 and 6, so we had to sprint those laps, and got to 9 before Grassy took over. We took a mosey to Walgreens for some reindeer games. Taken from F3 Cherokee from 2018, there was a list of all Santa’s reindeer and each one had a different exercise. We had already sung songs together and now the mumblechatter chatter really took over. We counted in Spanish, then German and there a lot of trivia about Home Alone 2. After getting through the reindeer games, we took a mosey back to COT
MARY: Peta took us through some exercises and finished up our workout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: OAs closed Tuesday for Christmas Eve workout and D2D
COT: Prayers for family, passing of loved ones, loss of jobs, travel, healing and kids.

Turn rain on 0515, turn rain off 0600’ish

WARMUP: Gathered before 0515 and no rain. 0515 hits and the rain begins. Why create an environment that makes things a little easier?

Disclaimer given and we took off on a little mosey to the corner of the parking lot.

Circled up for SSH, windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squats, merkins, Peter Parker.
THE THANG: Ran to the oil change place that has the little wall in the back. Once we got to the wall, direction was given. 10-20-30 was the idea.
– 10 step ups, run around building
– 10 diamond derkins, run around building
– 20 step ups, run
– 20 regular derkins, run
– 30 step ups, run
– 30 wide arm derkins, run

Run through the smell gauntlet and all the way through to the apartments with the round about at the bottom of the hill. 10-20-30 again but no running.

Alternating between CDD and lunges, do 10 of each, then 20, then 30.

Last we did 7s at the bottom of the hill to the fire station entrance. NUR up the hill, regular run to the bottom. Bottom of hill was bomb jacks, at the Fire station was 4 count flutters.
