WARM UP:  The PAX circled up for SSH, Imperial Walkers, Carrot 🥕 Pickers (?!), LBAC (fore and aft), Downward Dog, Merkins, and Mountain Climbers.

THE THANG:

The PAX remained in their circle while Bone and Lucius traded counting duties running through cinder block exercises cut by in place exercises. Each PAX stayed in one place throughout the workout, with only his cinder block for company.

We caught the PAX up on the monthly challenge with 3 planks of 30s, 60s, and 90s sprinkled throughout.

Finished with 5 cinder burps.

THE MARY:   The circle remained unbroken for Flutter Kicks; J-Los

COT: Today’s workout challenged the PAX to work with what was available to them, performing a variety of exercises with only a single implement: the cinder block.  Sometimes we can make an impact without moving, if we use the resources available to us. After the introduction of the horse, the American Indians of the Plains quickly adapted, learned new ways to hunt, and expanded their territory.  Soon, they were the best riders in the world.  They rebuilt their culture around the resources available to them.  Today, do your best with what you’ve got!
