Introduction
YHC was joined by my trusty sidekick Croaker (after a long absence). And there was a Kathmandid sighting, too. Whose idea was it to run to the top of the hill and finish up with the Descending Curb Crawl?
Warm-O-Rama
Mosey to our favorite parking lot for Warm-O-Rama
SSH
Weed Pickers
Imperial Walkers
Squats
The Thang
We mosey over to 5 points but only use 1 of the points.
Partner Up
Run up the hill for partner 1 while partner 2 begins exercises. Swap upon return of partner 1. Our goal was to complete 50 reps of 4 exercises:
Burpees
BBS
Squats
Merkins
YHC underestimated the distance to the top of the hill, so we quickly modified it to the end of the fence.
Mosey back up to our favorite parking lot. We lost our partner for round two:
Frog lunge to next light pole and sprint back
YHC again underestimated the distance to the next light pole so cut it in half
Bear Crawl to discarded jackets and sprint back
Lunge to discarded jackets and sprint back
Crab Walk to discarded jackets and sprint back
For round 3 a mosey to One Tree Hill, but it was a misdirection because we didn’t use the hill. Instead we tackled the Descending Curb Crawl. Bear Crawl to opposite curb and place feet on curb to complete 10 Derkins, keep going back and forth until you get to 1 Derkin. This one was brutal.
Mosey back to the flag for 20 LBC and 20 Freddie Merkins.
Circle of Trust
This was the 30th workout for YHC. Commando invited me in August and have been a regular since except for 1 vacation week. My Dad passed away at the end of July and this has been great for me mentally and physically. Thanks to everyone for welcoming me into the group and not making too many old guy jokes.
Naked Man Moleskin
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn, or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.
