  • 7 of Diamonds

    Kickin’ it old school on a Tuesday morning at Tsunami

    A quick disclaimer about not being a personal trainer and we were off to the circle of power for a brief warmup:

    Sidestraddle Hops x 20, Self Love x 10, Peter Parkers x 20

    Then a run to the newly softened grass at the Tulane quad for a true 7 of diamonds:

    At each corner of the quad:

    7 burpees

    14 Murkins

    21 Tin Snips

    28 Squats

    21 Tin Snips

    14 Murkins

    7 Burpees

    Somehow we were done with plenty of time for Mary:

    15 LBCs, 15 Penguins, 15 Dying Cockroaches, 15 Hello Dollys

    A run back to the benches by the circle of power for Right leg step ups x 15, Dips x 20, Left leg steps x 15.

    Count off and prayer.

  • 610 Nutria?

    In preparation for the Gnarly Nutria, Tsunami took to the run.

    After a brief warmup of Side-Straddle Hops it was 10 burpees at the St Charles entrance of Audubon park. From there we ran to the Magazine entrance where 10 pull-ups (or to failure) were performed. We ran back to the top of the park for 10 more burpees and then repeated this for another lap. In all it was 30 burpees, 20 pull-ups (unless you can’t do 20 pull-ups like me) and 3.8 miles.

    A balmy morning greeted us on the final day of April 2019.

    8 Pax gathered for a leg workout on the Mountain.

    We ran up the stairs to the top of Wolfpack Mountain for a warmup:

    25 Sidestraddle Hops, 10 Grass Grabbers, 10 Windmills, 20 Peter Parkers.

    Then it was on to the M-I-L-F-S workout.

    We began by running down the stairs to the 1st floor and then back to the top of the Mountain. At the top 50 monkey humper’s were enthusiastically performed.

    Back down the stairs to the 2nd floor and up to the top for 50 imperial walkers.

    Back down the stairs to the 3rd floor and up to the top for 50 lunges.

    We continued this with 50 Freddy Mercury’s and finally 50 shoulder tap murkins.

    With energy to spare, Quarterpipe went for a solo bear crawl while the rest of the pax sucked wind. Strong!

    Then it was time for Dora 1-2-3.

    50 Burpees, 100 Plank Jacks and 150 LBCs.

    Next a circle of Mary:

    15 WW2 Situps, 20 Penguins, 20 Hello Dollies, 20 Low Country Crabs, and 20 American Hammers (lead by Doullie).

    Finally down the stairs to the benches for 20 dips and 15 durkins.

    Next it was ascending Jack Webbs while running up Broadway, stopping at each corner we added one. Starting with 2 we ended with 7 at Feret.

    Then we ran halfway to the parking garage and did 10 burpees, followed by 40 Rocky Balboas at the corner of the access road.

    We then ran to the base of the Mountain where we played catch me if you can with partner 1 running backwards and partner two chasing forwards after 5 diamond pushups.

    At the top was Mary consisting of Dying Cockroach, Hello Dolly’s and Freddy Mercuries x 20 each.

    Down the stairs to the benches for Right Leg Step Ups, Dips, Right Leg Power Ups, Decline Merkins, Left Leg Step Ups, Dips, and Left Leg Power Ups.
