  • Sweaty Bells: Equatorial Edition – from Bolt

    24 days had passed since my trek to the Equator disrupted consistent F3 workouts and the Fartsack follies began, so for my third workout I granted Kong’s request to Q. Arriving at a timely 6:29:43, Satchmo and I moseyed to the PAX eager for a timely start, as I called out the disclaimer. Joining the circle and fumbling with the promised audio we began with suuuper-slow Abe Vigodas followed by bat wings, SSH, and shoulder taps.

    From our home base at the statue we carried our bells to the equatorial region formerly known as little oak alley.

    PAX were stoked to do 11s between the hemispheres starting with goblet squats at the Southern Hemisphere light poles and merkins at the Northern Hemisphere light poles. Moving south to north was accomplished like a sea lion (bear crawl) and moving north to south as a Galapagos crab (walk) for some extra misery as the music played, both taunting us and inspiring us; I did promise “minimal=zero” running.

    YHC was pleased to see everyone living out Darwin’s theory: adapting to overcome.

    Mosey back to our local naturalist, JJ Audubon’s statue to circle up and finish with Mary as diverse as Galapagos flora and fauna: each PAX pick their favorite core exercise and AMRAP for 2:15, nonstop. COT; thanks for letting me lead and breaking the fartsack follies.

  • Catfish of the Mists – from Catfish

    Great get-together this morning with 12 PAX at the Misty Mountain.

    Started by moseying over to the lawn across from the audubon entrance. Warmed up with Abe Vigodas (Windmills), Grass Grabbers, and a hearty round of the Motivator.

    Moseyed over to the base of the mountain for some plank action: Peter Parkers, Shoulder Taps, Parker Peters. Split into two lines for Indian Run at the top.

    At the summit – nice long round of Bat Wings to heat up the shoulders. Brief rest, then 15 burpees OYO. Attempted to follow it up with a Dora 1-2-3, but turned into a Dora 1-1-1 with 100 Catalinas, 100 jump squats, and 100 flutter kicks (2 is 1). Non-exercising partner did a “vertical loop” down the stairs, across the lot, then back up.

    Moseyed back to flag for CoT.
