I arrived to Grandma’s a little early to get in a little run before the beatdown. The weather came through the night before which brought the temperature down a bit. The humidity was there, but a little more bearable. I passed Steve on my run, so I knew I wasn’t going to be alone ( I was worried driving up to the AO). A good mile run, then back to the flag.
Warm-up: Again, you’ve been to a beat down before, so you know how it goes.

The Thang:
I know, you guys have a lake. I know you guys have a tunnel. But once again, the A1C has music. YHC brought the music to Grandma’s House, namely CottonEye Joe.
SSH until the word CottonEye Joe, then a burpee each time you heard that name. Great way to start the workout. Then it was to the trunk of the sentra to pick your poison. 35 lb plates, coupons, or a pair of 30 lb dumbells. It was a Gorilla workout that Shooter introduced to me a few weeks back. 8 reps of each exercise, 8 rounds. Curls, shoulder presses, merkins, and kettlebell swings. Run from stop sign to stop sign then 8 gorilla humpers. Rinse and repeat for 8 rounds. Followed it up with 3 minutes of Mary. COT with Shooter praying us out.

Mumble Chatter included the recent weather, business operations in the Mandeville area, and LSU baseball. Steve, the resident Entomologist of Mandeville, taught us all about the Mayfly which is the popular diet of the local Horse Flies of Mandeville. Sadly though, I missed out on the stepfather of the AO, Russo. Where can he be? Did he see my name on the Q sheet and decided to stay home? He couldn’t be afraid of A1C guys coming into Mandeville? I’ll let you come to your own conclusion, but clearly something is up
