Depressing 12 Days of Christmas

Depressing 12 Days of Christmas

I made it to the parking lot close to 10 minutes early somehow and got my poster board, i-pad and speaker out for the workout and waited on the Pax. At first Squid was the only one in the parking lot and I thought we would be cancelling the workout and just going to get our weekly Dilworth coffee. Then the rest of the crew showed up, and we were off.

Mosey around the back parking lot and back to the cars for warm-up:
20 x SSH
20 x Chinooks
10 x Merkin

The Thang:
Mosey over to the rock pile and grab the biggest lifting rock you can handle, and head back to the cars. I got my tools out with the poster board, timer on the i-pad and Christmas music going on the speaker and we did the 12 days of Christmas below. After each exercise, run a lap in the parking lot.
1) 1 minute plank
2) Burpees with Rock
3) Pull-ups
4) Toes to Bar
5) Diamond Merkins
6) Greg Louganis
7) Tricep Extensions
8) Merkin
9) V-Ups
10) Squid Curls
11) Arm Raises
12) Crucible Merkin

Moleskin: For the first time every Lobsta Roll was late to the workout. We started off on the warm up as he was still pulling into the parking lot. And I think Squid fell asleep on the asphalt because he was still laying there when we took off. LR tried to blame me for starting to early, but I doubt my 12 year old Timex has the wrong time. I tried a new warm-up, the Chinook, and it was totally a Q fail. Then there was a lot of mumblechatter when we got the lifting rocks because the guys couldn’t handle running 150 yards with the rocks. They were very confused. And once we got started on the 12 days, Ocho started getting depressed from the Christmas channel I selected so we had to switch stations so he and LR didn’t got home depressed and start crying over Christmas. It seemed everyone was in a better mood once I found the upbeat channel. Great work out there by everyone. It was nice to stay together as a Pax the whole time. I enjoyed the workout and Merry Christmas everyone! Thanks for the take out Ocho.
