10 PAX at Ivan Got Stronger Without Missing a Beat

Pax: Emeril, Java, Nemo, Peeping Tom, Pipe Dream, Double D, M4L, OCR, Dauber, Mookie

Warm Up:

SSH x20, GM x10, Imperial Walkers x10, Hillbillies x10, Fazio Arm Circles x10 F\B, Legs\Arms- R over L\L over R, Tricep stretches-L and R

The Workout:

For the 2nd Q in a row at Ivan, Mookie forgot to hit play on the Ivan playlist, which may have been a blessing for those PAX with an aversion to 90’s Old School Rap.

PAX grabbed kettlebells and John Cusack’d to the far section of the back parking lot, each occupying their own parking space for the following:

3 Rounds of 8 Kettlebell Swings- after each round PAX bear crawled to the opposite parking space in front of them and waited for the 6th and grabbed the curb for sets of 10 curb Merkins (both hands on curb, R hand on curb, Left hand on curb). At the end of each curb Merkin Round, PAX Lunge and Frankenstein walked back to Kettlebells for swings.

Mosey’d Cusack style to the end of the lot for a series of Kettlebell squats

Goblet Squats X10, Squat Thrusters X5 R\L, Goblet Squats w\ delayed down\up cadence X10

Mosey’d Cusack style across to the back of lot for Kettlebell Arm exercises

Hammer Curls x10 R\L, Curl Presses x10 R\L, Tricep Presses x20

Mosey’d Cusack style to middle of back lot for Rounds of Upright Rows, Bear Crawls to opposite parking space, and curb Shoulder\Tricep Work

3 Rounds Upright Rows x10

Derkins  x12 (In honor of Tom Brady’s Birthday)

Shoulder Tap Derkins x12

Dips x33 (for Larry Bird- drawing inspiration from earlier Murph mumble chatter about Lightning and Legends)

Mosey’d to playground varying Kettlebell Farmer’s carries R\L, Midget Love Handle bends R\L, and Tricep extensions.

Playground: Back\Lat Work

3 Rotating Rounds of TRX front rows x10, Pull Ups x10, Kettlebell plank rows x5 L\R

Mosey’d Cusack style toward picnic table shelter, dropped bells and performed 15 standard Merkins, picked up bells and proceed toward tennis court side shelter where we encountered a FIA workout. There were no ‘Gun Show’ comments this week. I have to assume Dauber was focused on what the Q would call next..Q proceeded with instruction to perform Kettlebell presses on the walk and alternated with various kettlebell exercises (tricep extensions in cadence, presses, farmer carries, Cusacks) on return to back lot for Mary.
