The Workout:

We mossied down to the rock pile behind the soccer fields and grabbed 2 smedium rocks. We then ran back up to the soccer fields and gathered around the half field line circle. Excises with the rocks were as follows:

  • Curls for the girls (x10)
  • Plank slides with one rock (x20)

/in /by

Warm Up:

All exercises (x15)

Partner Dora was the name of the game:
1 partner ran to the stop sign and back

2 rounds
Wall Sits
Erkins / Derkins & Dips

As we over by the half wall doing erkins derkins and dips the mumble chatter started and Nemo got to talking about the cicada’s that are all over our neighborhood. He thought it was some of the construction trucks near by the cicads were so loud! I have to admit these cicada’s are pretty loud. Next, Gizmo chimes in with “you know The View said that Lunar Eclipse has something to do with the 2 different types of cicada’s that are emerging from the ground” I didn’t think to much of it besides the fact that it’s a weird coincidence.

Nemo quickly said, “On a side note, how long have you been watching The View Gizmo?”Ā  We all lost it and had a good laugh.
