  • No touch NOLA is back

    OK so I started today wanting to build a workout in honor of Roots – who began our WPM AO. It was our 3rd workout and it continues to be a fan favorite. We welcomed back Amnesty who posted hoping to be led by Roots but got stuck with me. We also welcomed a FNG from Oregon – a law school buddy of Moana who we names Quarantine. No touching on the beatdown – so its like the old days for us.

    Beatdown got straight to work at the MTN.

    Did a circle with SSH, Imp Walker Squats, Dying Roaches and Mtn Climbers x 20IC

    Then we ran to the base of the MTN.

    At the base: there was a chalk instruction for each floor in mulitples of 13 for Friday the 13th.

    26 Lunges – 2nd, 39 plank jacks, – 3rd floor 52 monkey humpers, – 4th floor

    We did 13 hand release merks at the top of each ramp

    At the 4th floor we did some wall sits, some wall climbs (dirty dates or something) and then some wall walk ups

    Back to the ramps and we did 26 – shoulder taps and 39 – Russian Twist, and 52 – Monkey Humpers. More wall sits at the top. We also did 20 Flutter KIX in cadence.

    At the top of the MTN – we went back down the stairs and ran up LIL WPM.

    Here we had 4 exercises: LBCs, LBTs , Freddies, and Bird Dogs.

    One partner did exercise while the other went down the stairs and back up.

    Ran back to Audubon Park via the benches – at the benches we did dips x 30 OYO.

    Then we ran back to the FLAG. Arrived at 615am. Done.

    COVID – 19 prep starts after this beatdown.

  • Monkey Humper Monday

    Got to bed late and was feeling tired and uninspired this am – forced myself to the beatdown because I was the Q today. First person I saw was Revit and I mentioned that I wasn’t feeling it yet – and he reminded me that sometimes getting out of bed “the daily red pill” is the biggest challenge. And he is right! The whole day is better because of that one decision.

    Got the PAX together and ran across Magazine to the Figure 8 path in front of Audubon statue. Here we did a quick warm up: SSH x 20, Low Country Crabs x 20, Mtn Climbers x 20. Then we did 20 Monkey Humpers OYO, and do 20 MHs OYO at the tip of the 8s and where the line crosses so we did 100 MHS total.

    Then we moseyed to the FLY. We did some LBC x 20, Leg Lifts x 20 and dying roaches x 20. We also did 20 Monkey Humpers OYO.

    From there we moseyed to near the hill – at the hill we did Merks around the clock. With our hands on the curb. at 12, 3, 6, 9. oclock.

    After that we moseyed to a softer spot – and did 20 Jlos. Plus 20 Monkey Humpers.

    I let the boys open up the throttle for a full run to the Labrynth. The lead guys were supposed to ping pong for the 6 to get those extra miles.

    At the Labrynth we did Bulgarian splits L and R and Dips.

    Then we went for the long mosey back to the FLAG. Got to the FLAG early so we did Monkey Humpers until the 6 got there. With the 6 we did another 1 min of Monkey Humpers.

    Thanks for making me take the DRP today – I will be back at it on Wed!
