The Thang

The May Challenge is pushups, squats and sit-ups, so that’s what we will do. Kinda…

For twenty minutes, do the following:

Push-up to high side plank with arm extension, down to extended arm bear position, back out to push-up. Knees never touch the ground. Repeat 10 times (10 pushups, 5 side planks each side)

Squat to fall down push-up (in squat position), stand up. Swedish Ham named these Sqwerkins halfway through the BD. Repeat 10 times (10 squats)

Sit-up, but when your shoulders hit the ground, turn it into a glute bridge. Repeat 10 times.

Take a lap around the parking lot.

That’s one round. Keep going for 20 minutes.

Finished out with a few rounds of Mary.
Bear Arse with the American Hammer as usual.
Drafty Kilt with the scissors had me hurting.
Jalopy just made up reverse Freddy Mercury on the spot when we thought we were done with the regular Freddy. Is that even a thing??? It is now. It might have hurt my brain more than my abs. My mind is still blown.

Circle of Trust

Gadget got a new job!

Kathmandid is the real MVP!

Naked Man Moleskin

As we are slowly coming out of quarantine, I’m so thankful to have this group around me. You guys are such great support for my life.
