YHC was planning a spring based theme but the playlist wasn’t giving me A+ vibes. So we pivoted to recognize a music great on his 79th birthday: Sir Reginald Dwight aka Elton John.
WARMUP: Mosey to Parthenon for SSH, LBAC, Seal claps, Overhead Presses, Moroccan Nightclubs, Reverse LBAC, Squats.
THE THANG: Mosey to hill. ELTONs: 79 reps of each exercise with a sprint up the hill in between.
Excellent Form Squats (see Squatter) Lunges Thrusters Overhead Press Normal merkins
Pause for 7 burpees to celebrate Black Lung’s arrival as per AOQ edict
Mosey to Parthenon to play PIANO. Partner up. One runs around monument while other does:
Plank Incline merkins Asskickers Normal squats Overhead press
Mary at Startex.
MOLESKINE: Had a great crew of DR/WL out at Titan representing Chicago, Dallas, California, and Franklin TN. A lot of pressure on Q to make sure folks get in a good workout. Intentionally stayed in front of Parthenon so our guests could experience a pretty cool AO view.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Check Slack. Note: Bomber :bomb: convergence with Handsomizer ⚽️ this week so don’t go to McCabe or u will be sad.
COT: Prayers for Aurora, Polly, Mark and those unnamed aloud in our hearts. Prayers for reason and compassionate leadership in our world.

For the theme, after some careful, thoughtful feedback (?criticism) from Michelin Man about branching out my playlists to, I don’t know< decades other than the 1980s, I opted to go with a playlist so new, you're afraid to park it in a downtown Nashville parking garage for fear of that first door dent.

THE THANG: After a side mosey to pay our respects to the now demolished McCabe playground (RIP pull up bars), back to the hill for
#1 5+6s (aka 11s) — squats at bottom; merkins at top
Then mosey to upper lot for #2 6 stations – do 56 reps of exercises (Mountain Climbers, Iron Mikes, BB sit-ups, Star Jumps, Shoulder Taps, and as a party gift, an exercise of your choice). Then 5 burpees just 'cause.
Mosey to startex for #3 DIDs (28 dips, 14 incline merkins, 14 decline merkins) x 2
Mary with Flutter Kicks, Hello Dollys, Leg Raises, and ending with 56 LBCs
