Thank you BooBoo for reminding me that I had the Q, as I’m not usually a regular Uptowner. But that prompt served as a much needed kick in the rear, as I’ve been quite guilty of repeated fart-sacking (aka “shorty-ing”) of late.

So – here we are, around a flag, shivering and shaking, looking at the puddles of mud everywhere. What better way to start a Friday am! 12 folks joined in the fun – so with a quick disclaimer, we were off to the rocks.

Quick warm up cycle – YHC finds that he *really* needs the sllloooowwww Windmills to get started. But lets grab a rock and head to the Gazebo – Mahatma style (no resting rocks on shoulders! carry ’em!)

The Thang:

Christmas Songs! Yay! YHC queued up his Spotify Playlist (including favorites like Destiny’s Child, Queen, Run DMC, Vonda Shepard and more). While we celebrate the coming holidays, we’ll run through 10 sets 3 times (yes, a total of 30 sets. PAX math skills need help early in the am). Each set: 45 seconds then 15 seconds of work (yes, 30 sets each for 1 minute equals 30 minutes of work).

Shoulder Press, Lunge, Curl, Big Boy Situps, Burpees, Rows, Squat Jumps, Bench Press, Box Cutters and finish up with the Irish Jack Ass (thanks, Screwtop, for introducing me to these – they really kick my ass. 45 seconds of them? Yeah right – something for me to strive for…)

Back to the Rock pile, and back to the flag.

Welcome aboard “Ring of Fire” (though I’m regretting not going with “Sunshine”. But such is life.).
