The Workout: Started at Womble park and hit the streets, we mastered the greenway around to heartbreak hill back up into Sugg for some more off-road action, took the scenic route back across the neighborhoods and flew by Tapline to check out the situation, back through the greenway to womble and then across Stinson, down Bass Lake rd and into Sunset Ridge. There was a John Deere sighting as we pushed out to Holly springs road as the rain started to catch us. The heavy stuff fell as we rounded the corner on Bass lake and headed back toward Womble.

Warm Up: So excited to see 10 PAX (Crosby joined later) for the warm-up. SSH, Seal Claps, O/H claps, Sir Fazios (F+B), Frankensteins
The Workout: PAX helped me bring dumbbells and kettlebells to the covered picnic tables. The idea was simple: grab something, do as many reps as possible of an exercise with a coupon until the timer is done. What was our timer? Rather – who? One pax ran to the playground and hung out for 30 seconds or knocked out 5-10 pull-ups and ran back to shelter. ROTATE. Special thanks for John Deere and Cancun for bringing their (wicked heavy) ruck sacks and Gump for setting up a TRX band. Exercises included, curls for the girls, flies, lawnmowers, overhead press, tricep curls, swings, cross arm curls, etc. YHC tried spicing things up with a poorly executed Indian run with a kettlebell around the pitch. Disaster. Got things straightened out after pausing for some plank jacks along the way. Returned to the shelter for some people’s chair and BTTW. YHC led 10c, 15c and 20c rinse and repeats. Finished with more work with the coupons using a 30 cc LBC Pax timer. All 11 pax rotated through.
Mary: Stretching. Mumble chatter. R-rated.

PAX: Woody, Dusty, John Deer, Pikachu, Kubota, Orca, RAMS, Cancun.
FNGs: None
Warm Up: RAM saved my butt by taking PAX through some life saving warm-ups before I arrived.
The Workout: A workout so terrifying that Chuck Norris checks for it under his bed every night.
Set up the toys in a row with a pax at each. Log #2 was pulled for a Hobbits Tale (there and back again) as a timer. When Log #2 left the station the pax started working. When the log got back the pax would stop and shift to the left to the next toy or plank, mountain climber, or murcan. I stole this idea from Pikachu when he did it at Possum Trot because theft is the greatest form of flattery.
Round 1 and 2:
Tire- toe taps
KB- swings
Ruck- Deadlift
Log 1- shoulder presses shifting from each shoulder.
Log 2- pull down and back
PAX without a toy held plank for round 1 and mountain climbers for round 2.
Round 3, 4.
Tire- John Cusack
KB- Romanian Deadlift
Ruck- Ground Pounder
Log 1- side to side hops over log
Log 2- log flips. Down and back.
PAX without a toy did Murcan’s. Added in Imperial walkers and LBCs before PAX started the next exercise.
Mary: Mary was quite contrary because we did LBC’s during the workout.
Announcements: SW Picnic on the 26th. Q-Swap with CarPex.
T-Claps (Recognition): John Deer for really trying to follow instructions and Pikachu for really trying to lift a spare tire over his head. Joking aside it was great to work hard with all these men and an honor to lead.
