Eight gents walked into the Eagle’s Nest at Matthews UMC to see High Tide swinging a big assed kettle bell. I don’t know how heavy it was but it was green.
Anyhoo, we started with a breathing exercise and deep calf/hamstring stretches before moving onto a few pilates focused on abs. I think they were pilates. Who knows? I’m not a professional.
We did a few planks/merkins and moved onto the main event working to improve lower body flexibility. Starting with an extended wide legged bend we moved both right and left to ensure maximum hamstring extension. Once that was over we continued into a short merkin/plank series followed by my favorite pose .. pigeon. My IT bands always feel tight even when they aren’t and this pose works best for me so we held it on both sides for about two minutes adding an opposite leg bind towards the end. About that time I noticed a dude in a hoodie who’d been next to Crayola and crushing every pose. I then mentioned Witch Doctor always nails this bind(and every other pose really) and it was a shame he wasn’t here. Of course, it turns out the dude in the hoodie was indeed Witch Doctor. He was dressed for the weather outdoors and it was working for him so he kept it up once in the Eagle’s Nest. Maybe it helps him focus.
We finished pigeon and moved on to an LBC series followed by Happy Baby to close out the morning.
Moleskine : I battled the headcold/sinus infection like the rest of Charlotte the the last two weeks so I’ve missed Gumby and everything else. It was great to be back.
I saw Big Tuna at Base Camp Monday and he reminded me I was Qing somewhere this week. I
Mentioned Gumby and he hadn’t really heard of it but showed up today and seemed to enjoy it. It’s always nice to get a site FNG.
Massive Q Fail again forgetting a devotional/bible verse. I PROMISE I won’t forget again unless Swiss Miss and High Tide lock me out of the SignUp Genius.
Announcements :
Hey, speaking of SignUp Genius, Gumby is looking for Qs and it’s wide open! Sign up HERE. It’s really easy. Like I said last time, Qing Gumby is as easy as looking up some poses/stretches on the internet and picking out a horrible playlist!
Thank you for letting me Q, I always enjoy it.
