Today is my 45th birthday! I woke up earlier than normal so that I could drop off 5 coupons in front of Audubon Zoo. I wanted to mix in some weights for our workout.
Warm-up exercises on the great lawn in front of Audubon Zoo:
10 x Windmills
10 x Grass Grabbers
10 x Self Love
10 x Forward Arm Circles
10 x Hill Billies
20 x SSHs
15 x Imperial Walkers
25 x SSHs
After warm-up exercises, we moseyed to the statue in front of the Zoo. Divided into five groups of 5.
Five stations – Station 1 (Curls x 20 is the count), Station 2 (Alternate Step-ups), Station 3 (LBCs), Station 4 (Leg Raises), Station 5 (wall sit with overhead claps). Rotate in clockwise. Once each group finished all 5 stations, rinse and repeat for Round 2. Somehow during the rotation, Whopper pulled a Hulk and broke one of coupons. After we finished the 2nd round, we formed 2 lines. People Ran to Magazine Street and back with the coupons.
Back to the five stations except this time with different exercises.
Station 1 (Overhead presses x 20), Station 2 (Declined shoulder taps), Station 3 (LBTs), Station 4 (V – ups), Station 5 (wall sit with seal claps). Rotate in clockwise. Once each group finished all 5 stations, rinse and repeat for Round 2.
Quick mosey to the lawn in front of the zoo.
1) 15 hand released merkins then sprinted to the other end of the field. 15 more merkins and sprinted back to where we started to finish with 15 more. Total = 45 reps.
2.) same as 1) except we did squats instead of hand-released merkins.
3). same as 1) except we did burpees instead of hand-released merkins.
Arrived back at the flag at 6:16 a.m.
I gave a shout out to Angie’s List for Eh’ing me 5.5 years ago because F3 has become a big part of my life and routine. I look forward waking up at 5 a.m. to meet up with the Pax. I am thankful and grateful for my health. I hope I have many more birthdays to celebrate with my family, friends and Pax. Never take my health for granted.
