Normageddon, Part 2

Norm Strikes Back! There was no letting up the day after week 2 of the Iron Pax challenge and the day before the 9/11 star climb. Accelerate or get left behind!

6 HIM got after it Disney-style and it was YHC’s distinct honor to lead part 2 of my 2 year anniversary Q. > Part 3 is coming tomorrow at The Nest!

FNGs: None
Warm Up:

Mosey around the lot
SSH x 20 IC
Daisy Pickers x 10 IC
Sir Fazio Arm Circles x 10 Fwd IC/ x 10 Rev IC
Overhead Claps x 15 IC
Seal Claps x 15 IC
Windmills x 15 IC
Good Mornings x 10 IC

The Workout:

Once we were sufficiently warmed up, we engaged in an Indian run en route to the big parking lot where we circled up and instructions were given.

Although YHC does not personally subscribe to the Big Bang Theory (nor ever watched the show), a whole different type of Big Bang was introduced.

Here’s how it worked: the default starting position in the circle was the plank and prior to starting the first round, we kicked it off with 15 Merkins. Each round consisted of a number of lunge walk steps followed by and exercise with the same number of reps. Bear crawl back to the starting position, do 6 Turkish Get Ups (3 each side), and return to plank position to wait for the six and start the next round.

Round 1: 10 steps/ 10 reps – burpees
Round 2: 20 steps/ 20 reps – WW2’s (IC)
Round 3: 30 steps/ 30 reps – squats
Round 4: 40 steps/ 40 reps – LBC’s

Rinse & Repeat back down the pyramid > 30, 20, 10

Winded from the beatdown, the PAX proceeded to Indian run back to the SP for some stretching and MARY…

3 man wolfpack at U-turn

Where’d everybody go?  It was a light U-turn on Saturday as most of F3 Southwake was engaged in a BRR of some sort, either in person or virtual.  McNugget and Alpine rolled into make it a trio or runners this am.  After a brief warm up consisting of good mornings, daisy pickers, SSH and some hammy stretching the trio set out for a short jaunt.

Unfortunately no showings today of the dynamic duo from a few weeks ago including Lipstick’s dump darling.  Just a few dudes grabbing some miles.  PAX stayed relatively together with the group picking up YHC a few times along the way.  We did have a fly by from Bernie a few times along the path.

Rolled back into the parking lot for some stretching and second F at Panera.

Announcements: mulch sign up; Prayers: BRR team safety
