A perfect temp morning in the village. Let’s see if we can fit 45 minutes into 35 minutes before it’s coffee and conversation time. It went like this:

THE WARM-A-RAMA

Standard warmups, good times.

THE THANG

The Ladder

Perform each exercise in sequence, run 1 lap around the parking lot, then move to the next rep scheme (5 reps,  10 reps, 15 reps):

  1. The Foxhole (that’s a merkin-WW2 combo)

  2. The Skater (Apollo Oh-No!)

  3. The Gas Pump (NOT the heels-to-heaven but close)

  4. The Carolina Dry Dock (shoulders need love too)

  5. The Tie Fighter (that’s an arm swirly thing while doing lunges)

Squat-Flutts

Perform squats, run to the midpoint, perform flutter kicks, then repeat with increasing reps 5 reps,  10 reps, 15 reps

Ring of Fire

  • All PAX hold plank position.

  • First PAX performs 5 Merkins, then passes it down the line.

  • Keep going down to 1.

Some guys took the Ring of Fire WAY too seriously. Claps all around! Beasts.

5 Minutes of Mary

Penguins, Freddy, LBCs, Muttons. 20 of each.

And done.

COT:

  • Keep Dr. Toot, TAPs for injury recovery.
  • Pony Express: TAP, passing of his mother, illness with mother-in-law.
  • GreeNest coming up. Guys have Qs.

Pleasure to be with you all this morning. The Mentor Monday conversation was rewarding and a great ease in to the day. This group means a great deal to many. Keep it going.

Slowpitch: the keys are by the tree. Thanks for the chance to lead.
