5 of Zip’s dedicated faithful fan club weren’t discouraged by Cantore’s weather prediction nor the precipitation that blew in throughout the night and entered the gloom to make a downPAINment at the Matrix!
The Thang:
Before things get started Surprise Burpees x 5! (Chatter – it’s hard to bend down this soon so early so we kept it light….)
Mosey down to the soggy soccer field to examine the terrain:
– But Kicks
– Karaoke left
– Backwards mosey / run
– Karaoke right
The field resembled lake Erie Q as anticipated so Q calls an audible of what he previously had planned and we head for higher ground to the parking lot to the launch pad for COP:
SSH x 20
IW x 20
Merkins x 15
Peter Parker’s x 20
Get moving again and run to the back of the school for a “modified” Roger Waters (not quite wall to wall but – Wall to Tree Stumps)
Rinse and Repeat X 3
Jog across campus back to the front parking lot of the school for more PAIN on the jungle gym.
3 exercises followed by Sprints around the lot (200-250 yds)
– 1st exercise – 10 pull-ups followed by a Sprint.
– 2nd exercise – 20 dips followed by a Sprint.
– 3rd exercise – 20 air squats? (QIC needs confirmation here but it was something) followed by a Sprint.
Grab some wall, 1 minute standard – 2nd minute 30 air presses (in cadence)

Grab some wall, 1 minute standard – 2nd minute 30 air presses (in cadence)
Indian run across the lots to and around the track (with only a PAX of 5 this was good stuff with the additional reps and 5 Thoroughbreds). After completing the circuit around the track, jailbreak back to the main parking lot for some Mary!!!!
5 MOM:
Dolly x 20
Flutter x 20
Bicycle x 20
LBC x 20
Moleskin:
Another great day at The Matrix for Zip’s very own Fan Club Day and only the 5 strongest came out. I assume the rest were either fearful of what Z had in store and opted to a lighter w/out called the DMZ or they simply didn’t want to get grimy and mess up their manicures from their weekend spa treatment. Either way, it was a great day for such a strong PAX of 5.
Z tried to bait Tiger Rag on a few different occasions but he was having none of it. He and Uncle Leo were having some sort of 1:1 PT competition and were flying out there. A shout out to Young Love and Abacus who were right on their heels. YL just continues to get faster and faster and Abacus has become a beast on the pull-up bars and perfecting the “perkin” = perfect – merkin.
New workout DMZ started today Monday 6/3, 5:30 am at the Carmel Neighborhood Park & Carmel Middle School where Governator meets. Matrix faithful – DON’T GO THERE!!!! J
Area 51 pool party 6/8 at Candlewick Pool. Respond to your RSVP email before Bug Eater comes and tracks you down. Another evite went out last night……
Have a Good Week Boyz!
Zip – OUT
