FNGs: none
Warm Up: SSH, Good Mornings, Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Hill Billies, Sir Fozio Arm Circles, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps
The Workout: PAX moseyed over to “That Hill™” and held squat at the bottom while YHC laid out the plan. PAX would run to the first intersection, perform an exercise, run to the top of the hill, perform another exercise, run back to the first intersection, perform and exercise and then run back to the bottom and squat hold.

Mary: Popcorn Mary and a little yoga to finish things up.
Announcements: 3 Alarm is back home. Send some encouragement his way.
T-Claps (Recognition): All of those that got up before the butt crack of dawn this morning to get it done. Keep the momentum going!
Prayer: Bobby Boucher’s wife’s job, Nemo and his son traveling.
Moleskin: I’ve yo-yoed a bit over the past few months, gaining momentum and losing momentum. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that it’s much easier to get up at 5am and go work out if you’ve built up that consistency. That means it takes a good week or two of dedicated fart sack avoidance to get in the groove. If you’re already in that groove, awesome! Keep it up! If you’ve fallen off the wagon (as I have), dedicate yourself to getting up and getting out there. Stick with it and you’ll be back in the groove before you know it.

An Ode to Tony Horton

/in /QIC:

PAX:  EC – YHC, Breach, LED.  ME – Pumps, Sunshine, 2 Dollars, Sprinkler, POTS
Warm Up:  Two laps around the building, SSH, Frankenstein, good morning, cotton pickers
The Workout:  The selfish streak continues.  I’m training for a mountain race with heaps of elevation and felt I needed a good old fashioned legs beat down, so I jumped on the open Q spot last minute to serve my needs.  The plan was to use a P90X legs routine that always left me with jello legs, with some filler modifications.  PAX were advised that quality > quantity, form here is paramount, and to focus on slow, controlled movements.  You’ll get more out of 4 proper reps than 10 sloppy reps.

Two leg sets, mosey for merkins/core, repeat-o.  These may have F3 names, but whatever:

  • Bulgarian split squats, 24 reps each side
  • Calf raise squats, 25
    • mosey for merkins/core
  • Super skaters, 25 ea
  • People’s Chair, 90 seconds
    • mosey for merkins/core
  • Step back lunge, 15 ea
  • Alternating side lunge, 15 ea
    • mosey for merkins/core
  • Dead lift squats, 20 ea
  • 3-way calf raises, Toes forward, toes in, toes out (15 fast, 10 slow ea)
    • mosey for merkins/core
  • 3-way lunge, 5 ea
  • Jump squats, 12

Mary:  None
Announcements:  Sprinkler’s basketball Q tomorrow, 3-Alarm successful surgery
