A Special Visitor at The Estate
QIC: Burns
Date: 9.30.19
PAX: Touch-me-not, Chisel, Drip, Razzie, Zima, Huckleberry, Litterbox, Cherry Pie, Burns (Q)
With fall around the corner and Halloween decorations popping up on every street, it was fitting that the pax get paid a visit by our friendly neighborhood Grim Reaper. This is a workout popularized by Cobra and imitated by many others in different variations, this one being my own creation with inspiration from a #brutal BnW beatdown sometime last year. No disclaimer was given, we warmed up with an assortment of SSHs, ISTs, light yoga, and Michael Phelps (rapidly climbing my list of favorite warmorama exercises). Then we moseyed down to the lower lot to find our five stations laid out for us. Each station had 4 exercises to be completed in order x20 each, followed by a run of the short loop through the parking lot where we launched from. Then repeato in the opposite order x10 each followed by a run of the long loop down almost to the bridge and up through the street in between the shops. Stations were to be completed in whatever order behooved the present pax.
| Station 1 | Station 2 | Station 3 (bricks) | Station 4 | Station 5 |
| Merkins x20 | R leg Lunge x20 | Curls x20 | Irkins x20 | Mike Tysons x20 |

The only lodged complaints were that there was no music #cobains and that Cobra wasn’t there to receive ire for the beatdown’s inspiration. Zima and Litterbox completed 6 full rounds, all others got through at least 5. Hoping to see a healthy Cobra back in the gloom soon to enjoy these fall mornings that are supposedly right around the corner…I’ll believe it when I see it.
Prayers were lifted for Offsides during his daughter’s stressful time and for the pax to be walking in love this week.
Thanks for the keys, Huck!
