Davinci 5 year anniversary – Part 1 – The Workout

Davinci 5 year anniversary – Part 1 – The Workout

This Saturday at Davinci marked the 5-year anniversary of the site.  It was YHC’s honor to be on Q for the special occasion.  The 13 Pax in attendance provided so much good mumblechatter and memorable things to call out that YHC needed to break the morning into two backblasts.  This is Part 1 which is the detail on the workout.  For the moleskin details on the morning tune in for Part 2.

YHC stole this workout idea from Tagalong who did a leg/core heavy workout a year ago when he was getting ready to go skiing.  YHC is going skiing in a month so time to get those legs and core ready.

The Thang:

Mosey to the 131 Main parking lot for a warmup:

SSH, IW, Potato Pickers, Mtn Climbers and calf stretches

Head over to the rock pile behind the lash studio on Ardrey Kell and grab a lifting rock.  The 13 Pax spread out abreast with clarification that half will be running down one side of the parking lot with the other half running down the other side of the parking lot (keeping it socially distant y’all).

10 lunges each leg with rock. Put rock down and jump over rock side to side 10 times (over and back = 1).  Then run down to 3^rd light and back.  3 sets of this.

15 goblet squats with rock.  Put rock down and 15 Bonnie Blairs (over and back = 1).  Then run down to 3^rd light and back.  3 sets of this.

20 calf raises with rock.  Put rock down and 20 monkey humpers.  Then run down to 3^rd light and back.  3 sets of this.

In order to even it out a little bit we did some 7’s with the biceps because curls for the girls.  3 sets of 7’s which equated to 63 curls with runs to the 3^rd light in between.

Mosey back stopping at the First Citizens Bank for some core work.  Partner up with P1 doing J’Lo’s while P2 runs around the bank doing 20 donkey kicks at the drive thru and then flapjack.  Next round is P1 doing backscratchers while P2 runs around the bank and does 10 burpees in the drive thru then flapjack.  YHC had one more core exercise on the weinke but cut it short in order to get in one of the exercises from the original, very first Davinci workout.

We headed over to the stairwell with the yoga studio at top.  This was affectionately named Nakatomi Plaza in the original workout and YHC is committed to bringing that name back.  Pulling from the original workout we did some “Welcome to the party, pal”s.  6 diamond merkins at the bottom of the stairwell up and over and down for 1 burpee at the bottom.  Then 5 diamond merkins up, over and down and 2 burpees, etc.  We made it through 3 rounds before it was time to head back to launch.

On the way back to launch we passed the Blakeney fountains.  Apparently these were named Niagara Falls at the original Davinci.  We will bring this name back as well.

Mosey to launch arriving at 7:31. Now, head on over to Part 2 for the Moleskin.
