Black Friday Hangover

Black Friday Hangover

Saturday is lifting day, so YHC came up with a weinke, loaded the bells in the car, and headed for the hot box at Calvary for another week’s edition of Olympus. It was cool and a little wet, so I expected numbers to be down. Unfortunately, the rest of the pax were apparently suffering from Black Friday hangovers and it was a beatdown for 1.. Not a problem when you’ve got a good playlist.

Appetizer: SSH, Sharon Towers, Arm Circles, Prying Squat

Main Course:

• Set 1: 25 swings (32), 10 deep merkins on bells, 8 goblet squats (28)
• Set 2: 25 swings (32), 5 double clean and press (24s)
• Set 3: 25 swings (32), 10 deep merkins on bells, 8 deadlifts (double 24s)
• Set 4: 25 swings (32), 5 double clean and press (24s)

Repeat 4 times for 400 swings, 80 merkins, 32 goblet squats, 32 deadlifts, 40 clean and press.

Load the bells back in the car and join the RockZero crew for some Mary and COT.

Announcements:

• While this is an extreme case of social distancing, please try to maintain 6′ at your workouts in accordance with the Governor’s Executive Order. While it’s frustrating not to be able to work out the way we like, it’s only temporary.

Moleskine:

• Thanks to Geraldo and the RockZero pax for stopping by the hot box on their way to McAlpine Elementary and inviting me to join them rather than work out solo. I had to turn them down since I wanted to focus on bells today and I already had my weinke planned out. While it stinks to work out solo, it was nice to have a choice.
• While YHC was rocking out to some AC/DC in the middle of my 3rd round of swings, I noticed that a woman with a yoga mat had appeared on one of the benches on the far side of the hot box. A little startled, I asked if she had a group meeting her and she responded that she was just waiting for her trainer. The trainer showed up shortly thereafter and we did parallel workouts until I wrapped up. Good thing I didn’t have Chipotle last night. #nocropdusting
• YHC will be the Q at Skunkworks on Tuesday. It’s been a while and I’m looking forward to getting back out there. SYITG!
