Small but mighty group today for Tsunami. After a brief disclaimer we were off.
Lots of early discussion of the Saints win last night. Once again the script-writers at the League office tried to rob Who Dat nation of a win through botched officiating, but Wil MF-ing LUTZ came through huge!
Also much discussion of IPC, with pax coming down on both sides of the issue consistent with GroupMe mumblechatter. Yes, it’s stupid and those jokers in Greenwood shouldnt have made up a workout that takes longer than 45 mins to reasonably complete, but Yes it’s also meant to be tough and pushing yourself is good for you. Either way, we didn’t see any cinderblocks or do an unreasonable amount of burpees today, so I lived up to my promise of being IPC prep and recovery-friendly. Anyhoo…
After a brief mosey down to Walnut and back up St Charles, we “squared” up for some warm-up under the watchful eyes of Touchdown Jesus at Loyola:
SSH x15
Mountain Climbers x15
Squats x15
Merkins x15
Mosey through colonades and under and past WPM, and up to the nicest air-conditioned parking deck around.
