Okwata – the home of the pull-up bars. And YHC is definitely going to need help with pull-ups, if he is to have any hope of completing a Murph this year. And since there is no Try, only Do – YHC grabbed the Q with the intent of starting to work those Lats.

Joined by 5 other PAX, the group set-off from the Flag, looking out at a dark red sunrise over the lake – best AO in the country, IMHO…

Brief warm-up with some stretching, Peter Parkers and Imperial Walkers. Then off to the fountain.

Thing 1: Double-shot at the bar: Jack Webbs up to 10, with presses in the People’s Chair.
Thing 2: Escalator – 5 workout stations, 6th person running the lap around the fountain. Two rounds including left & right step-ups, sit ups, dips and irkins.

Up to the Levee!

Indian Bear Crawl – give everyone a shot at a bear crawl “sprint” to the front.

Thing 3: Quadrophelia!
Thing 4: Finish up at the House of Pain for the same Escalator style. Squats, Merkins, Situps, Pull-Ups and a Spotter. 6th person running over the levee.

Finish up back at the flag for some Wife Pleasers (apparently called “Me-Pleasers” by the uptowners)

NMM:

Weather was glorious this morning. Humidity down, gentle breeze. Almost makes me forget that I hate summer in the South.

Thank you, Snooze. I think you did more work spotting (lifting) me for the pull-ups than I did. But I gotta start somewhere.

High Rise: Damn. Flying through those pull-ups. You’re ready for a murph right now.

Great seeing you out in the gloom, SOJO. And I’m glad it was the *guns* that were out.

Sorry, Frac: no burpees today. Come on out to WPM tomorrow….

Saban: I think I heard grumbling and cursing during Quadrophelia. You’re welcome.
