Not so Terrible Twos
Sparky and Dovetail in the house. Turned it into a good co-Q.
Warm Up:
Circles, working down the body; SSH, then seal hops, then cross-legs; Frankensteins, and a short mosey
The Workout:
Circuit:
Sparky named these “Poppy Squats” (poppin’ a squat). Wide legs, 4-count down, then back up, but don’t lock out the knees, so you stay in constant tension.
Pulse Lunges in cadence
Box jumps
Spiderman pushups with travel across the knee wall.
Sparkly took over from here, being considerate of Dovetail’s broken and torn wrist with some Homer to Marge, Hello Dollys, Freddy Mercury, and then some traveling squats in cadence, and finally some slow bicycles followed by side planks.
Dovetail led through the circuit for a second time, then to the parking lot for suicides, one person in plank hold while the other sprinted by two parking spots, then jogged backwards, and switched. Went 2-4-6-8-10-8-6-4-2.
Combatives:
Broke down wing chung punches and blocks
Mary:
We swapped off for Mary with Butterfly sit-ups, Not-quite-lazy-boys, and heel pulse-ups, then lying-down hillbillies, and ending with pushups while Dovetail modified by doing pickle pounders.
Prayer:
Our country, citizens, and eventual president.
Dovetail found a house in AZ, but we have to be out of ours in Fuquay by Nov. 18, but kids have school until Dec. 18, and so far no place to stay for the interim. Prayers that works out, as well as AZ school decision. Finally, Dovetail’s MRI came back and showed a torn ligament and probably also a fracture, so it’s a bad time for the wrist to be not up to par.
