Camels Love a Brisk Valentine’s Day

Camels Love a Brisk Valentine’s Day

We had a nice crowd of 18 show up at Dromedary on a brisk Valentine’s day morning.  Keeping with the spirit of the day, 14 was the go to number as well as working for better or worse along with your partner.

  • 14 LBCs at 2nd light pole, then 14 hop squats at 3rd light pole
• Mosey back to launch and a few rounds of Mary’s to finish up
  • * multiple rounds of planks mixed in throughout the workout for good measure as well

The Moleskin:

A nice mosey around the parking lot started the morning off right, that led into a nice warm-up of multiple exercises done 14 times to get the body heat rising.  Then the fun started.  We partnered up and hit the rock pile.  As in life, some of us picked our partners (and our rocks) wisely, others didn’t which they paid for later.  After a lot of moaning and groaning, we ended up cutting the final exercise of big boy rock swap sit-ups short and returned the rocks.  Then the rock returner got a free ride up the hill on the back of their partner.  We finished the morning up with a bear crawl and lunge around the world.  All of this was done with my trusty weinke on hand but rarely was it used.

Announcements:

• There is a spaghetti dinner fundraiser at the Waxhaw Fire Dept. on March 3rd to benefit the family of a longtime volunteer who was recently stricken with pneumonia.   The dinner will be served in the fire truck bays, various trucks will be on display for your kids to enjoy.
