Decks in the rain

It was wet. We hit the parking decks for 5 exercise stations, ramp climbs and some burpees.
FNG hung in there, but he was used to the Cross Fit 12 Min AMRAP and the 45 minutes did him in! He did bring the obligatory FNG water bottle so there is that.
Orange Whip with a great take out this AM.

3 Amigos avoided el Guapo…

Date: 2024-12-11 AO: anvil Q: Point Break PAX: lorax, Limey FNGs: None COUNT: 3 The Thang
Did some site prep ahead of launch to minimize the time the group would be out in the rain.
5:30, light/brief/non-existent disclaimer and we were off.
Mosey over to the covered walkways near the AstroTurf semi-circle.
Warm-Up Exercises in cadence: · SSH x 15 · IW x 15 · Mountain Climbers x 10 · Merkins x 10 · Some Broga Posing
The rest of the workout occurred right here under the canopy. YHC had set up four pain stations across the walkways to leverage for the workout. Originally, I had planned for 5 PAX so that we could have a runner as our timer. But with only three PAX to speak of, modifications were necessary. So rather than use a runner/timer, we opted to do circuits of 25 exercises at each station and rotate through.
Station 1: Merkins · ROUND 1: CCDs · ROUND 2: Wide Arm · ROUND 3: Regular · ROUND 4: Diamond · ROUND 5: Hand Release
Station 2: Abs · ROUND 1: LBCs · ROUND 2: American Hammers · ROUND 3: Big Boys · ROUND 4: Flutter · ROUND 5: Heels to Heaven
Station 3: Legs · ROUND 1: Squats · ROUND 2: Jump Squats · ROUND 3: Lunges · ROUND 4: People’s Chair w/ Arm Raises · ROUND 5: Calf Raises
Station 4: Cinder Block Work · ROUND 1: Curls · ROUND 2: Chest Press · ROUND 3: Triceps · ROUND 4: Bent-Over Rows · ROUND 5: Around the World
Ended up completing the 5 rounds and then another 3 before we mosey’d back to launch.

Hopefully they are feeling the same regret as YHC right now as I struggle to feed myself, walk, and type. Here’s how it went down.
WARMUP: SSH x 20 IC 5 x 1-handed swings each side IW x 15 IC 5 x high pulls each side Sharon Towers x 10 IC 5 x snatches each side Prying squats 5 x cleans each side
THE THANG: Partner doubles – 2 pax split the reps however they want with 1 working and 1 letting the bells rest (meatheads don’t rest, the bells do)
Double farmer reverse lunges x 50 Double swings x 100 Double snatch x 50 Double front squat x 100 60 (audible) Double cleans x 100 (thanks, Flipper) Double presses x 50

Mumblechatter – Golgotha, aka Calvary, the place of the skull. Sounds a lot like Goliath of Gath. There’s speculation that the place where Jesus went to the cross is the same place where David raised up Goliaths head before taking Jerusalem from the Jebusites

Zen

Date: 2024-12-10 AO: bagpipe Q: kirby PAX: Hawkeye, madison, wildturkey, Rudy, Roulette FNGs: None COUNT: 6 Wild Turkey asked if we were going to walk around and talk about our feelings so I felt I should do some counseling. WARMUP: Find the most Zen place in front of the AC hotel. Do some SSHs and lunges side lunges and more nonsense. THE THANG: Find Zen moments of 1 minute meditation in plank. Rotate to next level of deck and big boy and squats looking out over the beautiful skyline. Repeat to floor 7 and reverse on way down to 4th floor. Take smokey stairs to basement and pose with graffiti. Line up for sprints. 80% to rolling to 100%. Luckily 100 %of 80 is still 80% of 100. Repeat until yhc strained hamstring. Roulette just smashed it today doing 3 second planks. Wild Turkey felt better about his feelings. Hawkeye ain’t got time to listen complaining and only likes merkins. Rudy can blanking sprint. Madison wasn’t judging but was wondering if this was a good idea. Thank you all! MARY: yep ANNOUNCEMENTS: it was raining but still had Christmas party on 20th. Deck the halls this Friday! COT:WT took us out
