Boulders, Breakfasts, and Banana Seats
After running the “old school” U-Turn loop this am, YHC decided to take the Q at Ground Pounder with a real focus on “muscle moves” and rep counts. 11 pax showed up for a lot of rock work and an impromptu photo shoot by Banana Seat. When asked if he was joining the workout, he responded he was only a spectator this morning, and this guy just stood there eating his breakfast….but got some great photos of the workout. There’s gotta be a name for this type of behavior in the lexicon. Either way, we all did 5 burpees in honor of our breakfast eating photographer/spectator’s arrival and departure in his “sweet” new ride.
