A glorious hump day morning at The Gipper. We had a PAX of 7 emerge from the shadows just as the morning sun was beginning to burn off the fog of war. After discussing Steve’s three first names (Steve, Bart, and Nelson?) and how anyone that wanted to steal his identity would be in trouble, we circled up under the shadows of President Reagan himself.

We started off with an easy warm up to the get the juices flowing and prepare us for what lie ahead: windmills, imperial walkers, side straddle hops, arm circles, and toe touches.  All exercises were in cadence at 15x.

We then moseyed on down to the rock pile for some Fred Flinstone muscle pumps. After choosing our weapon of choice we did two sets of 20 bicep curls, shoulder press, and tricep extensions. After getting a nasty burn we made our way to the top ramp of the parking garage for some more carnage.

Once at the bottom of the top ramp at the parking garage we lined up for the big show. We completed a series of exercises up the incline of the ramp then ran/jogged to the far corner and down the stairs back to the starting position holding plank until everyone arrived back. First exercise up the ramp was the sumo walk (duck walk variation), followed by lunges, crab walk (which seemed to turn out to be the worst), side lunges, bear crawls, and donkey kicks. By the end the ramp seemed to be much steeper and longer then it was when we started, and I think we were all happy to have it over with.

We jogged back to the trailhead for final orders. Count, names, and Turbo prayed for us.

Thanks everyone for coming out and even more for putting up with me, until next time.
