Hanes Park Bods

Hanes Park Bods

Date: 3/19/22

PAX: Mutton, Ziggy Stardust, Spicoli (finally), Palin, Logroll, Red Baron, Greenspan

Six pax joined the Q for a promised workout targeting that beach bod.  Not sure we succeeded at that, but definitely achieved the Hanes Park Bod threshold.  Here’s what happened.

Warmarama:

Lots of SSHs while we waited for Spicoli to exit his vehicle, ISTs, Abe Vigoda (off-balance), Whirly, Down/Up Dawg combo, Standing Hammy, Cherry Pies (sans Cherry Pie).

The Thang:

Mosey to circle at bottom of Intimidator for a chibatta; 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off, 3 rounds of 4 exerciess.

Round 1:  SSHs, ISTs, Freddie Merks, Plank

Round 2:  Toe Touches, Leg Lifts, Heels to Heaven, Plank

Round 3:  Mtn. Climbers, Plank Jack Shoulder Taps, Knee Slides, Plank

Mosey to picnic benches at playground for 7 layers of dip, leg edition; seven sets of dips x 10.  Between each set, a set of a leg exercise x 10.  Exercises were:

R-L Step Ups, L-L Step Ups, Squats, R-L Pistol Squat, L-L Pistol Squat, R-L RDL, L-L RDL

Sufficiently warm and talkative, YHC brought the pax to the main event at the bottom of Pilot View.  After completing Pilot View cycle of merkins, migrate over to Brookstown for squats, then to the Intimidator for SSHs; 110 reps of each in total.

Time to mosey home for Mary:

10 perpees (1 burpee + 3 merkins = 1); Penguin crunch x 20; plank till time.

NMM:

• Red Baron brought out a sweet pair of socks for the workout. They made him even faster than usual.  He was not surprised in the least that we ended up on PV.
• Spicoli negotiated with his hammy until about midway up Brookstown at which point he turned it loose (his speed, not the hammy).
• Everyone agreed that 30 merkins at the bottom of Pilot View was excessive after having scaled the peak.
• Mutton’s company made a house call to check on YHC’s 40 year-old furnace this week. He might need to send EMT to check on YHC after hearing the prognosis.
• Good to meet Logroll; he seemed bored and filled the time with extra reps. Strong dude.  He doesn’t like pistol squats, FYI.
• Ziggy persevered through some stomach troubles and kept Palin company. That’s harder than anything we did (we kid because we love).
• Palin, like the absent Lamb Chop, never seems winded by anything that any Q ever throws out. He comes for the socializing, stays for the workout.
• A group of FiA ran by taunting us while we were doing dips. #Motivation.
• YHC took a pre-run around the park; the workout weinke fell out of my pocket on West End. Fortunately, we found it on the mosey to Pilot View.

Super-strong group of pax this morning and great to be out on a Saturday morning.

Thanks for the keys, Mutton!  They’re hanging on my furnace.

Announcements:

• Birthday party convergence on April 2^nd at Hanes Park. Palin is hosting and asks that regular pax bring a small donation for refreshments.  Workout to be Qed by Spicoli, Seaman, and Crash with possible Q school before workout.

Prayer Requests: 

• The world.

YHC took us out praying echoes from 1^st John.
