Stranger Things

Date: 2024-04-29 AO: firestarter Q: Hippie PAX: kirby, war_eagle, das_boot FNGs: None COUNT: 4
WARMUP: I empathize with late comers. So we warmed up at the launch to watch war_eagle and das_boot whip their vehicles into parking spaces. (SSH, Hill Billies, potato pickers)
This would not be the last time we’d see a vehicle moving with speed during the workout…
THE THANG: Weights, Heart Rate, Mary
1. Weights – Cinder Blocks – Incline Push-ups – WWiii push-ups – Bench Press – Squat – Thrusters
2. Tabata – 3x – Plank Jack – Burpee – Lunges – Star Jumps – Mtn climbers
3. Mary – Rosalitas – LBC – Flutter – Box Cutter – Big boy sit-ups
Specials Notes:
– The Q was set on using some of the fancy features on his watch to run the Tabata timer. It was tested and ready to go but execution on game day was like the Phoenix Suns – absent. We completed the exercises but I’m not sure our heart rates increased as intended.
– We headed back to the front of the building when we found ourselves playing chicken with a big rig! We were able to get out of the way safely only to look back and watch the big rig do a donut in the lot. It was impressive. kirby and the Q sprained their ankles in the grass trying to dodge him. The good news – our heart rates are now up!
– The plan was to repeat these well defined routines a second time. So naturally we started running the course in reverse so that we’d end up where we started…but then we heard a strange sound that sounded like a dying deer coming from a human’s voice. Like actors in a horror movie we desperately wanted to investigate the strangeness but then remembered that the “B” in #sob stands for Ballantyne and at this point we were not prepared to do any sprinting so we turned around and headed to the front of the store.
– The Q figured out the Tabata timer and we conducted this 2nd set at the front of the store in a well lit area and in site of all CCT cameras.
– If you’ve not been to for firestarter in a while you’re missing a lot and we want to see you again.
MARY: see above ANNOUNCEMENTS: date night this weekend. To clarify teddyf3 is your Q not your date; reach out to him with questions. You’ll want to bring your M to this event.
