Swingin’ in the rain
Date: 2024-02-12 AO: swole Q: voodoo PAX: Uncle Leo, MARTA, The Worm, voodoo FNGs: None COUNT: 4 With a rainy forecast, the Q wisely pre-blasted a meeting spot in the inVue parking lot. The 60 degree temps were a welcome change from the cold and we were able to get under some cover to keep the bells from slipping.
Warm up: SSH x 20 IC 10 swings IW x 15 IC 5 cleans e/s Prying squats x 2 5 high pulls e/s
Uncle Leo and I did all of the above, with MARTA and The Worm joining in upon arrival. MARTA was late because he was hoping to play ultimate instead of working out. The Worm was late because he didn’t want to work out.
The Main Event: Week 7 of High Tide’s Hypertrophy Plan
Rep counts: 3 sets of (3-5-8) + 3-5
Superset 1: Lawnmowers and Goblet Squats Superset 2: Heavy Swings and Explosive Merkins
Racked holds (20s, 30s, 50s) with recovery between sides
No time for Mary
Announcements: Blood drive (3/8), Madison’s daughter’s run, and Savage Race
COT: MARTA led us in a short and sweet takeout this morning.
Moleskine: 1) With our site Q snowboarding this week, he lit up the bat Q signal last night and I answered the call. Since the spreadsheet is a known commodity, it’s really not very hard to Q these workouts. Just warm the pax up and write a slackblast. 2) I don’t know about the rest of the pax (other than The Worm), but I definitely had thoughts of going back to bed if no one else had posted this morning. Thankfully, Uncle Leo was there to keep me honest. 3) MARTA isn’t on the text string for Ultimate because he doesn’t have an iPhone and they don’t like green text messages. I, for one, fully support this policy. Watch your back, Hoover! 4) The Worm is tired of pull-ups and said he only posted because it was raining. That’s the inverse of most pax’s position on posting in the rain, but it worked for us this morning. 5) Thanks to the pax for coming out this morning and keeping me honest. After a few days off last week, it was nice to get back after it with the boys.
