Good Will Bunting

AO: atlantis
Q: Pole Dancer
PAX: Squatter, SalPal, Oatmeal, sooner, Subway, Puzzlah, Toothless, Siri
FNGs: None
COUNT: 9
CONDITIONS: dusty

WARMUP: mosey around the field, active warmups

THE THANG: KICKBALL!

Started off with Last Man Standing- one pitch, if you get out, you join the pitcher in the outfield. Last batter to get out wins. Immediately had to add people to the outfield due to Oatmeal’s lack of hustle.

Switched to standard kickball where we ended in a tie! (boooooo)

Highlighted by some superb batting from Toothless, an opportunity to improve fielding abilities from Siri, and a true masterclass in bunting from both squads. Everyone was red from burpees in the dirt after every hit.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: The dreaded Tennessee Tussle is scheduled! Get excited to form teams of four so we can improve on our finish from last year!

COT: Prayers for health, the passing of loved ones, and career adversity. Always thankful for the PAX providing a welcoming space to share our struggles, emotions, and triumphs together.

PLAYLIST: Quickly threw together selections from the top results on Spotify for “baseball walk up music.” Turns out the youth these days only pull from two categories for walk up tunes- rap made after 2019, and classic rock. Go figure.

Traveling Time (while largely staying put)

AO: atlantis
Q: Firefox
PAX: Pole Dancer, CubCadet, Toothless, DintyMoore
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
CONDITIONS: Soupy

WARMUP: OYO Stretches

THE THANG: Mosey to playground. PAX did down unders/body rows on the swings then 50x Freddie Mercuries (each side = 1/2). 5 rounds with variable number of down unders: 30x, 20x, 10x, 15x, 20x

PAX paired off and did squats while passing a rice bag. 3 minutes

Staying in pairs, partners did WW1s facing each other and passing the rice bag at the top of their WW1s. 3 minutes, 50 seconds (also, an eternity).

During the partner exercises, PAX shared their favorite US travel destinations.

Rice bag hold. 1 PAX got on their six and held a rice bag in their hands over their head while also doing a six-inch-hold with a rice bag on their shins. Hold as long as possible while the other PAX counted and encouraged. 2 full rotations. In the first, Pole Dancer held for 31 seconds but everyone did at least 25s. In the second round, Toothless incorporated some micro-adjustments to extend out to 40s, but everyone did at least 27s to better their time. Strong work.

Mosey to benches. 30x dips and 30x benchy crunchy frogs. 3 full rounds.

2 rounds of WW1s plus 10-15s hollow body hold.

30x Alabama prom dates
30x right leg fire hydrants
30x left leg fire hydrants

Hollow body hold till time.

Back Attack

AO: atlantis
Q: Pole Dancer
PAX: porcelain, CubCadet, Subway, Oatmeal, SalPal
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: COMFY

WARMUP: SSH x20

THE THANG: Attacking the back with each half of the remedy to back pain- stretching and strengthening!

Started with some static stretching, good mornings, and shoulder stretches. Flowed into a quick yoga routine from sun pose into warrior 1 & 2, triangle pose, back up and down into the other side. Then downward dog into cobra, back to downward dog, into runners lunges, with a twist on each side.

Mosey over to the swings to elucidate how much we work our chest compared to our backs. 4 sets of 10 bodyweight rows on the swings, paired with 10 pushups. Safe to say the pushups were quite a bit easier.

Lunge back to startx because glute and hamstring strength is the foundation of a strong lower back! Then 3 sets of 45 second tubota style exercises mixing back and lower body;
– Dumbbell flys
– Alabama Prom Dates
– Cinderblock deadlift
– Squats
– Exercise band extensions
– Clamshells

Finished out with a round of Mary because core strength is also critical for back support.

MOLESKINE: Oatmeal is in 3 cults currently applying for his 4th. Subway thinks Juvenile’s name is Jeremy

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Brewsday next Tuesday and YHC will be in attendance! Second drink is on moneyshot

COT: Prayers for kids getting out of school and a family dealing with a miscarriage.

PLAYLIST: very subpar performance from the gallery trying to guess song title and artist of songs with “Back” in the name. I think we hit on 5/13 and burpees ensued for each wrong answer.
