AO: The Highlands
QIC: JAG
PAX: Toolbox, Trolley, and Jenner
Warm-Up: SSH, IW, IBAC, Cherry Pickers, WMH, and Merkins . . . lots and lots of Merkins.
The Thang: The PAX did a friendship lap around the luscious Highlands’ pasture and then moseyed over to the Costco garage. There, the PAX performed a set of Box Jumps, Dips and Derkins before a sprint up the 7 flights of garage. The PAX returned to the first floor via the garage’s ramps performing a variety of exercises along the way, including Bear Crawls, Crawl Bears, Crab Walks, Walk Crabs, Seal Claps, Inchworm Merkins and Squats. Once upon solid ground, the PAX did another set of Derkins and Dips before returning to The Highlands’ proper.
Mary: American Hammers, WWIIs and the debut of “Freddy Flutter Mercury Kicks” – an exercise where the Q calls one exercise and then performs the other much to the confusion of the PAX!
COT: Two of the podcasts that the Q listed to this week mentioned the positive effect of exercise – one was an interview with Ryan Manion of the Travis Manion Foundation and another was a biography of President Theodore Roosevelt. Remember this lesson as we get into the coldest of The Gloom. Don’t let the dropping temps give you a reason to Fartsack it. Get up and get after it!
