Six of us managed to stave off the Mardi Gras hangover for a Wednesday beatdown at the Birdcage. After a warmup jog around the clubhouse parking lot, we circled up in oak alley for a warmup COP:
- SSH x25
- IW squat x20
- Plank jack x20
- Mountain climber x20
- Merkins x10 (OYO)
Mosey over to the row bars and split into three groups:
- Inverted rows x20 (with the count)
- Burpees
- Shoulder taps
Then repeat for round 2 with 15 rows instead of 20.
Mosey back to the lampposts in oak alley for a variation on Dirty MacDeuce where the designated lap was through oak alley, down the trail to the row bars, then down the jogging path back to the lampposts. We did a round of exercises at 4 of the lampposts followed by a lap after each round:
- Lamp 1: Diamond merks x10, LSS x20, mountain climber x20, bear crawl to lamp 2, hard run
- Lamp 2: Wide merks x10, squat jumps x20, cross mountain climber x20, backward bear crawl to lamp 3, hard run
- Lamp 3: Stagger merks x10, regular squats x20, Peter Parker x20, LBC x20, booboo bear crawl to lamp 4, hard run
- Lamp 4: Stagger merks x10, monkey humpers x20, Parker Peter x20, LBT x10, side bear crawl to next lamp, hard run back to virtual shovel flag
This seemed reasonable on paper but was brutal in practice. Thanks to the Pax for pushing me to get through this. TClaps to Saban in particular for blowing past everyone on the running parts.
Count, name-o-rama, and prayers for personal and spiritual growth during the Lenten season.
