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. Despite what Natural Ice might say . . .
CONDITIONS: Cool (like the playlist)
WARMUP: For the 9th year in a row, SSH x my new age. (Some looks on the PAX faces of "Damn, why's he gotta be so old." LBAC x 11 (i.e. 5+6), Overhead Presses x 11, Seal Claps (complete with the porcelain bark c/o Title Max) x 11, RLBAC x 11, WMH and GM OHO, and Imperial Walkers x 11
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

WARMUP: SSH for my man Pep we did 30, because I am mean. Some Stretching some Hill Billies, Some Merkins
THE THANG: Make Sandbags Great Again! Pax formed a circle and performed Merkins until the timer ran out. The timer consisted of each member of the Pax performing 5 sandbag burpees. Once all of the burpees had been paid we ran a little loop.
Rinse and Repeat, but Pax could swap out the 5 sandbag burpees with 10 goblet squats. The resting exercises also rotated with varies forms of mery as well as incline merkins.
