After reading the email this morning, it occurred to me that I may have forgotten something important last week. It wasn’t my wife’s birthday, remembered that. Thanksgiving? Who could forget it. Black Friday? My coffee at uptown PJ’s only cost an arm and half a leg in celebration of Black Friday, so it wasn’t that. No, YHC may have (allegedly) forgotten (potentially) to post a BB from the Foundry this week. I may have (according to some sources) been mentioned in the weekly email. For this – if it refers to me – I am deeply sorry (allegedly). Regardless, as I have gotten on others before about failing to post a BB, no excuses. Just like it’s better to send a wedding gift six months late than not at all, please allow the following to serve as YHC’s BB from last week.
On Wednesday, we were joined by 1 FNG and 3 out of towners – Side Effects, Charmin, and Uptown Girl – for out traditional foundry workout, consisting of offensive music, an appropriate amount of mumblechatter, and Tabata. The mumblechatter is because we always forget the rotation halfway through; Tabata is because it’s a rockin good time; and offensive music is required by law as a tribute to Jesus Juice, whose playlists consist mainly of people screaming obscenities over 300 beats per minute.
But first, on a muggy morning, we did a quick warmup on the track of
- SSHx20
- Arm Circlesx20
- Mountain Climbersx20
- IWx20
- Self love OYO as we walked to the lanes of the track
From there, the usual: 2 lines, Indian Run to the Foundry.
When we arrived, 8 stations of Tabata, consisting of
- Snake Derkins (just a Derkin on the thing we call a snake, not some cool new exercise that involves slithering around while doing merkins. although….)
- Upright rows
- seated dips
- Squats
- Shoulder taps
- Hanging crunches
- Plank + alternating arms up in the air
- Burpees
We got 5 rounds in, and Indian ran back to the track for some cyo Mary, including
- LBC’s
- Doctor W’s
- flutter kicks
- something else
We moseyed to the flag where we arrived at 6:15 sharp. COT, prayer, and then coffeeteria at PJ’s on Canal. Thanks for coming out. – Kuch
