The Avenger
YHC rolled up at 0520 to set out the agility ladder on the court. Drove over to set up the flag. Parked the car and got out with 3 mins until go time. Belly was rumbling but knew it was almost go time. However, no one else was pulling into the lot. I knew it would be light today with some usual’s traveling and others going for the tasty turd. 0531 I went ahead and helped the open restroom smell better. 0533 YHC is debating on solo workout or go back to bed. After all, the canes game went into double OT and of course I stayed up to watch who won. With the last Avengers movie coming out today, I wanted to lead an inspired workout by some of the best superheros of our time. My middle kid was up before I left with a fever and my M wasn’t feeling good either. A quick text and she asked if I was going to lead myself in a workout. My response…
Warm Up:
Started some music on my phone and hit a quick lap around the track. Then over to the court.
Seal Jacks x25 IC
Iron Man take off x20 – deep squat down then back up, extend calf raises and hold for a 4 count
Peter Parker Peter x10 each leg – 4 count on right leg, then switch
Upper body stretches
The Hulk:
Grab a shmedium rock
Iron Hulk – 1:4 merkins to rock presses up to 10:40
– This was a mental game bc I had no one but myself to help hold me accountable. Once 20 presses came into play, had to break up the presses into two smaller sets to complete. Was happy to get through 10 merkins followed by 40 rock presses.
Hulk smash rock slams – switch out rock for a bigger rock x20, squat to lift, overhead press and slam
Hulk curls – grab a very large rock and AMRAP. Got to 35 reps and bi’s were on fire.
Spider-Man:
Spider-Man 7’s
WWII’s 4 ct = 1 (knees bent) on sideline
Spider-Man crawl from sideline to sideline
Peter Parker merkins on sideline
– The Spider-Man crawl was quickly modified after a down and back to a bear crawl. It was unrealistic.
Made it through and worked up a moist shirt.
Flash:
Using the floor agility ladder. Full sprint through with different movements down, burpee at end, same movement back, burpee. x5 passes for a total of 10 runs through and 10 burpees.
Thor (Mary):
Capt. Thors 1:4 to 10:40 – big boy sit up and american hammers
T-Claps (Recognition):
During Mary there was a guy in the back of the parking lot doing wind sprints by himself. After the workout I went over and introduced myself and invited him to F3. Antonio was running strong over and over. Hope he joins us soon.
Prayer:
Before pulling up the flag, I took a knee in front of it to thank my Lord.
So glad I didn’t leave. It felt good to get a workout in. I hope this helps the PAX know that you can do a workout solo. Don’t give in to the temptation of being slack. You get stronger when you put in work. The sunrise was beautiful this morning and glad I was able to witness the start of another day.
BS Out!
