I had the pax settled in for a light stretching warm up and was about to roll out the Yoga mats when Rudy arrived on the scene. To not further the Uptown image as a pax of lightweights I audibled.
Thang:
Progressive burpees around the jogging track: burpee plus one more at each successive jogging man icon on the track. Plank and wait.
Slow mosey through the roots and then mosey back up Walnut street to St Charles.
LIMPS: Lunges x 10, Imperial Walker x 15, merkins x 20, Plank Jack x 25, Squats x 30 ad we ran down the neutral ground. New exercise at each crossstreet until set LIMPS. Creative street car dodging included.
As an F3 ad and to block the neutral ground for joggers we did some plank work followed by mission impossible x 20s.
Mosey across the Loyola campus to the Tulane ROTC pull up bars. 3 groups. First group on the pull up bars with 1/2 the group spotting to 10 and then alternating so the spotters get their 10. Other two groups doing step ups and incline/decline merkins. 10 is all the pull-ups YHC can muster so one set it is.
Mosey back to WP mountain. Divide up in 2 lines and Indian run to the top. Nice work.
20 count and partner up. Running partner takes stairs to 5th floor, runs up the ramp to 6, and then stairs up to 7. Stay at home partner does LBCs while mourning loss of running partner. Switch. Repeat twice more with shoulder taps and real Freddy Mercuries being the exercise.
Mosey back to the place-where-we-normally-leave-the-flag for nameorama and sweaty COT. QIC expanded on the Proverbs verse ‘as iron sharpens iron, man sharpens man’ and asked the Lord to help us strengthen each other. Yoga next Friday!
