Ten fierce warriors fought back the gloom and made it to the top of Peak51. Here’s the thang:
Mosey around front of church to back and over to school bus lot.
COP:
- SSH-15
- IW-15
- Merkins-15
- LSS-15
Mosey to playground equipment and find a pullup or supine pullup bar
Up & hold 5 count then 5-count descent
10 recovery Merkins OYO
REPEATO minus 1 Merkin each round until 1 Merkin,
Mosey to parking lot, partner up (opposite speed)
Partner 1: SSH while P2 moves to opposite side doing following exercise: (mosey back then flapjack)
- lunge walk
- bear crawl
- frog jump
- “speed skate”
- sprint
Plank when done
Repeat: Switch out SSH with Peter Parkers
Mosey to the tundra and circle up for some Mary.
Pax #1 calls ab exercise and takes recovery mosey around ring. Remaining Pax perform called exercise OYO. Repeato until all Pax have gone. (YHC recalls: Flutter, Merkins, IW, Mountain Climber, Protractor, Freddy Mercury (variable speed), Sid-the-Kid, Russian Twist, Rosalita, LBC)
Mosey to benches by side of theater: 15 dips, 15 decline/incline Merkins, 15 step-ups OYO. Wall-sit when done
Mosey to cars. Time’s up.
Moleskin
- DT, Sensei and SlimFast arrived early to knock out a few miles before the main show. #Respect
- Missing brother found: Insomniac made an appearance after almost 2 months hibernation. With all the gloom this morning I’m pretty sure he didn’t see his shadow, so expect to see him posting at many future A51 workouts.
- Geraldo pulled the ruck out of his car before we got started. I didn’t see it come off until it was time for Mary. #Strong
- DT was a real beast: not only did the pre run, but also crushed the workout.
- The continuous activity back and forth across the parking lot winded me and I’m guessing a few others, yet a few Pax kept up a continuous mumblechatter. Geraldo and Simba maybe? YHC salutes your O2 resilience.
- The band had a little trouble with the key signature when it came to circle of Mary, with several Pax calling questionable ab exercises. IW, okay I get it. Merkins? Also, thought Sid-the-Kid was trademarked by Strange Brew. Not a crowd favorite.
- Nice take out from DT.
- Thank you for the honor of leading, gentlemen. And for graciously applying some form of modify to spare me penalty burpees at the end.
