Pimps and Zombies

Five of F3’s finest posted for the usual Wednesday sweatfest in City Park.  Apparently many of the ruckers are still recovering…or just being lazy…or doing Zumba…or???  After the disclaimer and the usual Shorty fartsacking ridicule, our modest PAX moseyed down Roosevelt Mall and peeled off in the field for:

SSH x50 IC

Burpees x10 OYO

Bear Crawl to the hill (60-70yds?)

This had the PAX awake and ready to roll.

Next up, mosey to the Foundry for some PIMPS:

P – Pull Ups x5  (t-claps to Cowbell for the extra credit)

I – Imperial Walkers x10

M – Merkins x15

P – Plank Jacks x20

S – Squats x25

Rinse and repeat twice for a total of 3 rounds.

Towards the end of the circuit we saw a group of 20-30 bodies off in the gloomy field running our way.  All we could make out were dark silhouettes which made for an intriguing sci-fi like experience.  After determining it wasn’t a zombie invasion and it wasn’t the latecomers showing up tardy, we watched them circle up for some PT in cadence.  T-claps to whatever group it was out there….military we presume.

Wrapped up at the foundry pull up bars with a 1 minute hang for lagniappe.

Head to NOMA and gather up around the oval sculpture pond for a hybrid ledge circuit.  This was something new so YHC warned the PAX it would be a work in progress and expect changes on the fly.  PAX line up an arm length apart, all PAX crank out specified exercise while last guy “Indian” runs around the outer curb of the pond and re-positions on the far end of where he started.  This was tricky to explain to the PAX and even trickier to type out in this BB but it seemed to work ok.  We determined 3 (or 4?) laps was a good timer for each round then switch exercises.  Here’s how it went:

Round 1 – Dips

Round 2 – R Side Step w/Knee Up

Round 3 – Hip Slappers

Round 4 – L Side Step w/Knee Up

Round 5 – Knee Ins

Round 6 – Dips

Round 7 – R Side Step w/Knee Up

Round 8 – Hip Slappers

Time was ticking and groans were prevalent so we called it there.  YHC just realized he failed to balance off the legs with L side steps.  To be continued.

Indian Run back to the flag with one minute high plank to seal the deal at 6:15.

Nothing earth shattering this am, just another solid showing by the crew.  T-claps to Duct Tape for becoming a “regular” with continued posts and also t-claps for pushing hard through the Indian Run.  Topped off the morning with a great COT and sweaty ball of man.
