Knocking off the Rust

11 at Disney this morning. YHC was back in action after a long 2 week absence for family vacation. Not many chances to workout on the road so was a great morning to start knocking off some rust.  Crab Legs also returned from a long family vacation to Greece so it was like having 2 FNGs out there.  Solo EC for Nemo.  Great work by 2.0 8-Bit.  The Dawg Pound dropped The HC but was a no show.

Warm Up: Jog around field, circled up in lot for Good Mornings, Windmills and arm/chest stretch. Indian Run to baseball lot for crazy feet, SSH ICx40 and Fazio Arms.

The Workout: Jog to The Abyss, partner up. Each pair completed 100 merkins, 200 squats and 300 LBCs. One partner doing the exercise while the other runs the stairs.  Focus on form and not a race.

Mary: Circled up in tight, shoulder to shoulder plank hold. One man backs out, calls a hold or exercise to be done from plank, and bear crawls around and back. Next man repeats and we went around the circle.

Announcements: Upcoming events follow on facebook, Crab Legs birthday the 14th – RESPECT

Prayer: Crab Legs friend Corey who is fighting ALS, for a strong start for resurrected AO Kenny’s Grave.  YHC took us out in prayer including all those unspoken.

Crazy Time Gets Legit

8 Pax said screw sleep and showed up at 4:30AM to get an extra beat down in on a humid Friday morning. Extra kudos to Yellow Card – YHC certainly wasn’t waking up at 4AM to work out at 15.

No FNGs, so we went off and did our thing:

1 mile

100 Pullups

200 Merkins

300 Squats

1 mile

Various set patterns per usual – shout out to Skidmark for doing the first 10 sets at 10 pullups/10 merkins/15 squats and then finishing from there. Getting stronger bro.

We had a quick CoT and then (most of us at least) went off to our regularly scheduled 2nd beat down of the morning.

Based on three weeks of good attendance in a row Crazy Time is now a thing!

Aye! ~ Pikachu
