Rice is Nice

AO: handsomizer
Q: Firefox
PAX: Natural Ice, Salami, Old Maid, caprate, FakePaw

COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: Damp

WARMUP:
– 20x SSH
– 15x FLBAC
– 15x BLBAC
– 15x Air Presses
– 15x Moroccan Night Clubs

THE THANG: YHC was given a gracious welcome by the handsomizer regulars, and I returned that by bringing gifts of rice.

Part 1: Indigenous peoples run around the stadium bring a rice bag up to the front of the line and passing it back.

Part 2: PAX partnered up over at the picnic benches on the turf patch. Pairs did a rice bag pass during an exercise

– Step-ups on the picnic benches (passing the rice bag at the top of the step-up) – 3 minutes
– Sit-ups (toe-to-toe, passing the rice bag at the top of the sit-up) – 3:30 minutes
– Squats – 3:45 minutes
– WW1 (toe-to-toe, bringing the rice bag up over your head when coming to the ground and then passing it at the top of the sit-up) – 5 minutes!

Part 3: Plank hold for 3:45 minutes during “Hold On” by the Alabama Shakes

Part 4: 45 sec on, 15 sec off
– Bench flutters (3 rounds)
– Bulgarian split-squats (2 rounds)
– One-legged stand-ups (2 rounds)

Part 5: PAX got back into pairs. One held a hollow body hold while the other ran with a rice bag. Each PAX ran twice (significantly shortening the run for the second round).

Part 6: 1 minute of shoulder tap plank jacks.

MOLESKINE:
– Lots of good mumblechatter time during the run and partner exercises
– What wore down the most during those WW1s? Core or arms?

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– Hot wings challenge with The Merchant

COT:
– Job changes and the soul searching that accompanies coming to a career crossroads.

It was a pleasure joining and leading y’all this morning!

12 Days of Christmas

AO: handsomizer
Q: Wedding Singer
PAX: Umbrella, Purple Tiger, Wedding Singer, Salami, Freakonomics, bluemule, Natural Ice – CBO, Spinal Tap
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
CONDITIONS: cool and crisp

WARMUP:
Disclaimer
Recognition of Umbrella, who allowed YHC to freely steal and modify (including the notable absence of even a single Michael Buble song on the playlist this time!) his long-standing tradition and recent beatdown at the-racetrack Mosey to the bottom of the steps

THE THANG:

12 Days of Christmas
Day 1 – 8 count Body Builder
Day 2 – Apollo Onos
Day 3 – Worst Merkin
Day 4 – Lt. Dan
Day 5 – Burpees
Day 6 – Storm squats
Day 7 – WWI or WWII
Day 8 – Windmill Merkins
Day 9 – Iron Mike’s
Day 10 – Makhtar N’Diayes
Day 11 – Mountain Climbers
Day 12 – V-Ups

The day corresponds with number of reps. Start on Day 1 and then run lap up the stairs and back down the ramp. Day 2 then 1, run. Day 3 then 2 then 1, run…until you finish or time. 2 is 1 for all applicable exercises. That fact, along with the long set of stairs and ramp back down proved to be too much for any of the PAX to complete the work, but several got to Day 10!
