Hurricane Barry was hovering over the coast of Louisiana on Saturday. Not knowing if we were going to have Sweaty Bells on Sunday morning, YHC and Willie were having some whiskeys at their friend’s, Paw Patrol’s, house on the previous night.
After many rounds of scotch and bourbon, YHC looked over to Willie and asked if we should have Sweaty Bells next morning. Willie’s response was – “Sure.” YHC posted on Mumblechatter about Sweaty Bells would be still on. Thanks to Tinkles informing YHC about the gates at the Fly were closed. YHC made a change on the AO to where the PAX normally meet at the Skinny and Birdcage. At 6:30 a.m., only one brave soul weathered through Hurricane Barry and met YHC at the shelter for a 45 minutes beatdown. It was an interesting morning. JV and YHC showed up at the shelter. First, we saw a turtle. Then a homeless guy was sleeping on one of the benches the entire time. Finally, a rooster was wandering around the shelter with the PAX for the entire 45 minutes.

After warm-ups, PAX did the following: 10 right-leg and 10 left leg step ups with the bell, Curls x 10 IC, decline plank from the bench and pull the bell from left to right and right to left 15 times, Low Slow Squats with the bell x 10 IC (Willie showed up at this point and joined the PAX), 15 right leg and 15 left leg power ups with the bell, BLIMPS with the bell around the shelter. Because of the ISI Challenge, YHC modify the “M” as merkins to pulling the bell from left to right and right to left 20 times in plank position.
After the Blimps, each Pax started with 11 thrusters on one end of the shelter. Then bear crawled to the other end. Then moseyed back to the beginning and did 10 thrusters. Rinse and repeat with 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 thrusters. In total, each PAX toughed out at least 2 minutes of bear crawling and 66 thrusters. Then each PAX did 15 dips in cadence followed by 10 clockwise halos with a curl in between and 10 more halos and curls in the opposite direction.
At the end of the workout – PAX completed more than 7:00 minutes in plank position for Day 14 ISI challenge.
