Leave a comment

So close to have merlot spilled today with the somersaults. YHC was closest as a lot of the PAX wisely chose to modify the exercise.

Disclaimer given

Warmup:
15 little baby arm circles
15 reverse baby arm circles
15 forward arm circles
15 reverse forward arm circles
15 over head arm circles
15 reverse overhead arm circles
15 tea pot right 
15 tea pot left
15 Imperial Walkers
15 hill billies

The Thang:
Partner up… first team to number calls it for everyone

50 Candlestick burpees… (push up / candlestick alternate) while partner double leg hops to 10 and back
100 Merkins & Bear crawl to 10 and back
200 American Hammers & run BACKWARDS  to 10 and back 
300 Squats & somersault to 10 and back
400 plank jacks & lunges to 10 and back
500 LBCs & Crawl Bear to 10 and back
We started on this last one but time ran out: 600 ssh & run to 10 and back 

Count-o-rama, name-o-rama

COT: This text copied from another AOs backblast: “….Life is extremely tough for just about everyone right now — let’s all make a concerted effort to re-connect with those who we have not heard from in a while. Even a text message can make a huge difference these days!…” Funny as the topic of plagiarism came up in coffee afterwards.

Covid lock-down was broken today for YHC with a return to the AO.

Great to see the turnout. 11 strong.

Warm Up : 25 SSH. Yup, that was it.

The Thang:
Bear Crawl 100 yards
Walk to 10, do 10 gas pumps… walk to 20, do 20 gas pumps … all the way to endzone….
25 Merkins, crawl bear to 100 yards
Walk to 10, do 10 squats… walk to 20…. you get it
Crab walk to 10, 10 burpees…. walk to 20…. Pax getting tired – stop at the 50.
Walk to 10, 10 Monkey Humpers…. walk to 20….etc. to the 50
Wrap it up with 1 air press / 1 merkin every 5 yards and ending with 10/10.

What can YHC say. It was great to be back and hope the pax enjoyed it.

Burgundy on the call Thursday pointed out that YHC will be the only one of the 5 left in Monterey by the end of the year. It has been very humbling to have known those for the time we have spent together in Monterey. YHC is a bit reserved and had YHC not come out to Carmel High on 12/29/2018 there would have been no time getting to know any of the PAX. The PAX has lifted YHC. And for that, YHC is grateful.

Speaking of 12/29/2018… 609 days ago… Burgundy and YHC started F3 on that day – So let’s take a trip down memory lane:

The backblast from that day:

9 Pax, 3 FNGs, 1 Goal!
