PAX: Bruin, Ziggy Stardust, 60 Minutes, Adobe, Boomerang, Subfloor, Pony Express, Rubber Ducky
Early and Cold but feels good for a beatdown for my VQ at Parliament. It was the year of our Lord January 23, 2024 and the air was extra crisp with excitement and anticipation for what was to come. I concocted this scheme to try to close the distance on the Merkin Challenge with Lamb Chop. I will be missing 2-3 Days at the end of this week and needed to make up some ground. The exercises below are actually a rest break between the Merkins. As the Merkins progressed they obviously got harder. The first 100 were not bad. The last 100 were terrible.
Warm-o-Rama
SSH, Imperial Walker, Hill Billy, Whirly, Abe (time wasters)

Prayers for the (2) Navy Seals who are believed deceased off the coast of Somalia, Aging parents, and for two new candidates for our presidential race coming up. All in all it was a good, solid workout. Now the question is, how will these arms feel tomorrow. Only time will tell.
Duck Out!
