AO: Minor Complex
Pax: Slinky (Illinois), Noble Virus, House Arrest, Jorts, Hackface, Red Tees, Numbers, Scud Row, DeLorean, Bartman (QiC)
A brief respite from the gullywasher that was Sunday...10 pax defeated the sweet siren sounds of the fartsack and gathered to get better together. T-Claps to the 6 pax who took off for a mosey as a pre-party.
Some pleasantries and fist bumps were exchange, greeted our visitor Slinky from Illinois, and it is 0530...lets role...
Circle up for some warm-o-rama consisting of 20 SSHs IC, 10 slow ass merkins IC, 10 Mountain Climbers IC, BACs/Back BACs 20 IC, and 5 Good Mornings OYO (because Good Mornings in cadence are the work of the devil...fight me).
MC was insane during warm-o-rama...thank God someone was actually counting cadence.
The THANG
Mosey over to the larger parking lot...bear crawl 40 yards, every 10 crawls 3 merkins...10 burpees at the end. Crawl bear back, every 10 crawls 3 merkins, 10 burpees at the end. Definite crowd pleaser...MC died down a bit.
CONSTANT MOTION!!!! 1 min of politicians, sprint forward, karaoke right/left, and 2 burpees at "down", then 2 minutes, then 3 minutes.
Rinse & repeat...bear crawl 40 yards, every 10 crawls 3 merkins...10 burpees at the end. Crawl bear back, every 10 crawls 3 merkins, 10 burpees at the end.
Under the picnic area...40s with dips and derkins.
Mosey back to launch point for BEAR CRAWL RING OF FIRE!! Bear crawl around in circle till Q says stop, at stop...1 pax does 5 merkins while others hold plank, then next pax does merkins all else still holding plank...once all pax complete merkins, bear crawl begins again till Q says stop for next merkin variation. Continue the shenanigans till 5 diamond merkins, 5 werkins, 5 staggered left and 5 staggered right are done by all.
Time for Mary...50 LBCs OYO, 20 WWIIs OYO, 20 Alabama Prom Dates OYO, 20 Dying Cockroaches IC, 20 flutter kicks IC, 5 count Laney Lou's, and 10 burpees.
Count-o-rama, name-o-rama, BOM...we out!
Moleskin:
Grateful for the opportunity to lead and thankful for a downrange pax today. Hope you enjoyed it Slinky!
T-Claps to Noble for continuing to push through the shoulder pain with the near hit and run miss this past Friday. Grateful you are OK, brother.
Prayers being lifted up for Ray (Scud's dad) as he is going through some testing/bloodwork. Prayers for healing and peace.
Prayers for Arthur, Slinky's brother, who just moved here with his family to start a business. Prayers that the business kicks off successfully and that we get Arthur out with the pax.
Prayers from my perspective...son made the tennis team at Hillsboro (2nd year playing) and he has his first match tomorrow (doubles). Will be an intense 8-9 weeks with practice schedule and matches. Pray that he has fun, plays well and the weather holds.
Lock shields gentlemen...rely on each other. The world tells us that we can do all on our own. We can not. We are creatures that desire and need human interaction. I encourage you to get a shieldlock if you do not already have one. I encourage you to be vulnerable with others. We are here to help bring out our best selves in each other.
Grateful for all of you...yes, even you Bloodclot (my OG brotha from another motha)...
YHC,
Bartman
