Monday Morning Math

6 men met in great temps for a Monday morning workout and old-school Algebra II lesson at Rock City.  Unfortunately, a record turnout down South and a late evening backblast puts us at 0-2 against The Skinny today.  Congrats huggers.  Don’t worry, we’ll be back.

Always great to see the Mav at #RockCity.  As he tied his shoes (#safety1st) YHC finished the disclaimer and we headed to the Rock Pile,  We picked up Cowbell and Shorty on the way.  No pre-thang Chit-Chat for these two.  They also missed the disclaimer, and perhaps YHC should have reiterated it.  Not sure these two are the wisest Rock selectors among us, but I should probably remove the beam from my own eye on that one.

The Thang

Warm-up COP:  SSH x 25; IW x 25; Don Quixotes x 15

We selected our rocks.  Not much running today, so YHC advised the pax to go big.  We headed a few yards to the t-ball field where we gathered for 10!

10! – 3 exercises all in cadence:  Squat Presses, Bench Presses, Back Rows.  We started with 10 each, then 9 each, 8 each, 7….2, 1.  That made for a total of 55 Squat Presses, 110 Bench Presses, and 110 Back Rows.

We then hit the track for a Tabata run.  Sprint 20 seconds followed by 10 seconds of slow jog recovery.  We continued for about 1/2 a mile, until we reached the playground

Mini-Murph:  5 pull-ups, 10 merkins, and 15 squats.  The goal was to do this 10 times, but the pax was so fast we through in an extra cycle for a total of 55 pull-ups, 110 merkins, and 165 squats.

Time to mosey back to our rocks, we cut diagonally across the park, hoping to save some time for Mary.

6 MOM:  LBC IC x 40; Dying Cockroach IC x 30; Penguins IC x 20; Russian Twist IC x 20

Return the rocks and horses to the stable back to the flag.

Shout out

Great work by the pax today.  We got through more then I thought we would.  Really fast on the Mini-Murph.  Continued prayers for Monte Williams and his family.  Praises for the weather and this group of men and the accountability they afford.
