HIIT Hits Hydra

YHC wanted to keep things moving at Hydra this morning, 14 other pax posted to YHC’s workout which was nice, they were instructed to modify as needed and then we all got at it.  Today’s workout was designed to help push pax and at the same time allow folks to push at the appropriate level for themselves.

The Thang:

Disclaimer

Run to Harris Teeter and back (pretty much a mile)

SSH x 25 while waiting for the six (the rest of the pack)

IW x 25 to stretch out the hammies, yes Gummy, that is what they are good for

Merkins x 5 IC but slow and proper like

The Jalapeno – Partner sits with arms extended, partner 2 hops over arms and legs x 10, hmmm that got a bit dizzying

Playground for modified (and half way through audibled) Cindy

Every Minute on the Minute (EMOM)

45 seconds on, 15 seconds off

10 rounds

5 pull ups

10 merkins

15 squats

However, modify the numbers to attempt to be consistent through all 10 rounds

It was originally announced that this would be 20 rounds but was modified to 10 due to poor math skills on YHC’s part

Over to the baseball field bleachers

Partner 1 runs around baseball field while partner 2 does

10 jump ups (or step ups)

15 dips

15 squats

Then flapjack then repeato x 2 for a total of 3 rounds

Over to the wall at the school for a 3 min break, otherwise known as a wall sit

Parking lot for Mary

10 oyo each way Sid-The-Kid (leg circles in the air)

Flutter x 20 IC

Dolly x 20 IC

Back scratchers x 10 oyo

Russian Twist x 10 oyo

Heels to Heaven x 10

Burpees x 5

NM:

Was fun to lead this workout this morning, it is dedicated to a dear friend of YHC’s who came up with most of the workout and whom had had a tough day yesterday, so here’s to thinking of you.  The less emotional part of the workout was that the intensity levels were attempted to be kept high, minimal planking or waiting around, wanted to keep the pax moving even while waiting for the six.  Daisy is working on a local EH, anyone can do this, you just modify as needed, the hardest part is showing up!  A strong effort by the pax, that Cindy was a killer.  Was nice to have Starfish visiting from Winston, welcome back anytime!

Announcements:

Day Zero Convergence on Sat

Metro Convergence on Monday

Thanks to Pudding Pop for the Hydra leaderhship and the takeout!

Great Q Brew!!

The Jalapeno was definitely interesting, an O2 depriver to be sure. My man told me a couple days ago that there’d be a lot of pull-ups, and definitely delivered.

Strong work going bareback most of the weinke too, even doing the Backscratcher on that cheese grater of a parking lot.
