Sweatfest

Sweatfest

Pre-warm up: I was just about to tell the Pax that whenever we hear a train whistle, it’s an automatic 10 burpees, when the whistle blew. Checked my watch and was precisely 5:30 so – 10 burpees. Good news is that we were already warm from the heat and humidity so no problem.

Warm up:
HB mile to get loose

COP:
– SSH (25)
– Imperial Squat Walker (20) #Awkward
– Merkins (20)
– Mountain Climbers (20)

The Thang:
Island Hopping: Go to first roadside island do 10 Bomb Jacks, back to start for 20 LBC’s, second island, etc.
– Island 1 – lunge walk
– Island 2 – backward run
– Island 3 – karaoke
– Island 4 – run

Short Indian run to next station

Circle up in plank position for a Merkin wave – down one by one around the circle, up around the circle – repeat until we’re close to drowning in our own sweat puddles

20 Monkey Humpers OYO – face in, face out? We decided that as long as we all did the same, we’d avoid sights that might cause nightmares later.

Time for 11’s – planned to use the hill but decided better due to recent rain. The Pax were of course disappointed. Alternated between LSS and CDD with light pole run in between. Didn’t need the hill!

Mosey to somewhere near a Stop sign (not close enough according to some) for a Bear Crawl Inch Worm. Planks in a line with bear crawl from back to in front of the line until we get to the stop sign.

Mosey to picnic tables for 2 sets of Dips (20) and Step Ups (20)

Only time for a quick Mary – Rosalita Wip (20)

Moleskine:
Warm and muggy would be a severe understatement. We were dealing with truly sauna-like conditions so props to all for pushing themselves and pushing through to the end without a mutiny against YHC. Lesser guys would have been dropping like the British pound. We’re used to seeing sweat angels after Mary but not 5 minutes in. Great to see Hands Off and Lumberjack staying with it and for Dream joining us. Thanks to Glass Joe for taking us out and continued prayers for his wife and for HB. And thanks for the honor of leading today.
