Warmarama:

SSHs, Abe Vigodas, Whirlies, Cherry Pies

 

The Thang

Flip over the weinke and we find:

Round                  Exercise

  • SSHs
  • Boot-slap Squats
  • Mountain Climbers (DC)
  • Romanian Deadlifts (DC)
  • Heels to Heaven (DC)
  • Bonnie Blair (DC)
  • American Hammers (DC)
  • Hillbillies (DC)

All x 25 reps; each round stacks on top of all previous rounds, e.g. round 2 required both SSHs and Squats x 25 each.

After each round, run to one end of Thruway.  Cup check in play:  at Chopt end, perform hand-release merkins x 25.  At Orange Theory end, perform divebombers x 25.

Continue until 0615.

Announcements:

  • Happy Hour (and a half) today at Campus Gas!
  • Samaritan Ministries service opportunities are open for June – December.
  • YHC invited everyone to OGs/Tractors tomorrow but was met with a muted response.

Prayer Requests:

  • Continued prayer for Ziggy’s and his family’s grief.
  • YHC took us out asking Sky-Q to comfort Ziggy and family and to attend to all of the unspoken.

NMM:

  • After flipping the weinke and walking through the plan, YHC then sprang the cup check on the pax with the upper-body work at the ends of the strips. You should have seen Huckleberry’s face when YHC called for “hand-release divebombers” at the Orange Theory end.
  • We made it to the Bonnie Blair round in the middle, which means everyone (YHC thinks) performed 725 reps in the middle when you account for the double-counts, and 75 each of divebomers and hand-release merkins (150). That was with 2.6 miles ran.  Woof.
  • YHC hooked Snooki and Frostbite for the Ardmore RIRO. We missed Schlitz & Palin this morning.  Word on the street was that there would be another opportunity for an Ardmore WIB RIRO in the near-future.  Snooki & Huckleberry paired up and were up front, along with the tagteam of Root Canal & Rollback.
  • Rollback was rolling and is nursing an injury. He has WIB Q next week, so get ready.
  • Bevo previewed the weinke yesterday at FlyWheel and commented that “it looks easy”. That was the moment that “hand-release divebomers” entered the equation.  You’re all welcome.
  • BooBoo arrived on #Spicolitime and then proceeded to crush the workout while encouraging all around him. We got to celebrate one-year post-hole-in-the-head together.
  • Ludikrous made the 45-minute drive from Mocksville for the third time. T-Claps!  We need to get him to workouts other than WIB and / or restart F3 Mocksville.  Paging Drano.

Root Canal, Pharoah of the Site-Qs:  thanks for the keys.  It’s always an honor and a pleasure. See everyone at OGs & Tractors tomorrow.

    Solid looking WIB!

    sorry to have missed it especially so close in the Ardmore hood.

    How exactly does one do hand release, dive bombers? And release your hands at both the up dog position and the down dog position? Seems like that would go wrong quickly…
