Gumby turned 1 today, so to help celebrate, the founding site Qs and current site Qs teamed up for a triple dose of what makes Gumby awesome: breathing, stretching, and music.
Opening (Q: Swiss Miss) windshield wiper, hip stretch, Cat/Cow, Vinyasa (aka Sun Salutation)
Leg time (Q: High Tide) low lunge sequence, Cow Face, 1/2 Lord of the Fishes sequence
Hip time (Q: Tweetsie) Vinyasa, Warrior -1 -2 -Peaceful -3, Awkward Pose, (I forgot the rest . . . distracted)
Closing (Q: Swiss Miss) Dead Pigeon

It’s hard to believe a year has already rolled by since we officially kicked off this very different, but also very needed F3 workout. We spend all week hammering our bodies, but until Gumby, we never took time to lay down the hammer and . . . OK, probably best to stop trying to make that metaphor work. But you know what I mean.
We had a great group today, with High Tide’s uncanny ability to time music to the movements, and from the back row, a quick answer to Tweetsie’s wondering aloud about how the Awkward Pose got it’s name.
And of course, the stretching was so helpful. I really should be doing this every day. But weekly is still far better than never.
Thank you for coming out today, and to all the PAX who have come join us this past year. I hope to see some return to “regular” status (Booyah), and see other site FNGs. Be sure to share the good news that your brother PAX can hit an F3 workout that will leave them feeling tons better than when they rolled into the parking lot.
