Love 2 the 9's


Date: September 1, 2021

AO: SouthernGrit

QiC: Import

Pax: House Arrest, Tuna, Winger, Flava, Burnt Ends, Vespa, Shocker, and Stirrups

Started with some SSH. Forgot plan to end all reps on a 9, to celebrate the start of September. Not a great start. Good thing I have my sleek and sexy Bluetooth speaker to excite the PAX (well, at least @Flava). Got some Falling Up pumping through the parking lot. Mountain climbers on verses, burpees on choruses, and high knees on the bridge. 10 slow-ass merks while I find my gloves that apparently shrunk to kid size. BACs and Back BACs (cadence count starting to fall apart, as Flava whines about how bad his son’s football team is). WMH, runners stretch, and a couple GMs. Ok, we're warm.


Thang 1 - Partner coupon work

Partner 1 starts on side A w/ coupon, Partner 2 on side B


Round 1

Side A does 30 curls, Side B does jump squats

Bear crawl to meet in center for 9 partner merks

Rotate 180 to crawl bear to other side

Repeat, with Partner 2 doing curls and Partner 1 doing jump squats


Round 2

Side A does 25 skull crushers, Side B does split lunges

Bear crawl to meet in center for 9 partner merks

Rotate 180 to crawl bear to other side

Repeat, with Partner 2 doing skull crushers and Partner 1 doing split lunges

Mosey (the long way) to the pond


Thang 2 - 9s (like 11s, but 9 for September)

Burpees at the top, jump squats at the bottom, mode of transportation bear crawl/politician


Flava kept a close eye out for the water moccasins. Fortunately, they were scared off by Shocker's anaconda arms. We had one near slide into the pond, thanks to slippery algae. Winger just about spilled some vacation merlot around the 5 burpee point.


Mosey back to parking lot

Flutterkicks holding coupon overhead. Called on PAX to take turns leading 10 reps IC. Renamed Tuna to Flava. In my defense, it looked like Tuna was passing gas.

Laney Lou: High plank, 9 plankjacks around

Laney Lou: Low plank, 9 J-Lo’s around

American hammers w/ coupon. Each PAX led 10 reps IC

More time left than expected. Time to make stuff up.

10 Supermans OYO. Called on a few PAX to lead 10 count for holding Superman.

Time to finish strong with merkin-plankjack ladder. We made it from 1 merkin + 4 plankjacks to 8 merkins + 32 plankjacks.


And that's a wrap. Time to number off. How many PAX on this 1st day of the 9th month of the year? 9!

Moleskin

Be intentional about what you say to others, and the attitude of your heart. Proverbs 17:22 teaches that a cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.


Import out.
