Wednesday marked 1 year anniversary of my Dad’s passing. In the days leading up to his passing, and in the year since then, many of the PAX have reached out to offer YHC comfort, prayers and support. I am forever in all of your debt. Thank you for being here for me.

Today, 6 PAX will get to join YHC in commemorating the anniversary on a surprisingly rain-less day. YHC had prepped the workout under the expectation that we’d be trapped in a downpour under the gazebo. While the weathermen were wrong, the park was still very much a sloppy mess – so what would we have in store? Lets go to the rock pile and find out!

Warm Up: War Eagle takes one look at the muck around the rock pile and whimpers “can’t we go to the parking lot?” OK, lets grab a rock and go to the parking lot. Quick warmup with some stretching, SSH, Imperial Walkers.

The Thang

Tabata workout. 10 exercises, 45 seconds on, 15 rest. We’ll cycle through 3 times.

The exercises?
Dips (using the curb)
Elf on a Shelf
Wife Pleasers (with a rock…)
American Hammer
Rows
Squats
T-merkins
Overhead Press
Raises of the Calf variety
Kettlebell swing

D.E.W.A.R.S. YHC’s father’s favorite drink.
S.T.O.R.K. YHC’s father was an OB/GYN, and delivering babies was truly his greatest love.

Lots of 80s and 90s rock on the radio. Fast Tax shared YHC’s love for the Bo Deans. Good to find another fan!

Finish up with enough time to rifle carry the rocks back to the pile and mosey back to the flag. Count off and prayers, and War Eagle took us home with an inspirational prayer.

Thanks for the workout, and thanks for all of the support.
