On an extra chilly, windy morning, a solid group of men gathered for a high-intensity, no-weights workout. The crew was expecting a few “leggers” to show up, and Moby and BBQ made their return, adding to the morning’s energy. Darkwing Duck made a rare January appearance, earning himself the title of the new Punxsutawney Phil—since he saw his shadow and disappeared for another six weeks.
The workout kicked off with a long, informal warm-up. The count was all over the place, but the group took the time to catch up—especially with BBQ, who hadn’t been around for a while.
Once warmed up, the real work began with a ladder circuit:
1. Sumo Squats (10 reps) → Run a lap
2. Lunges (10 reps, 2=1) → Back to sumo squats → Run another lap
3. Monkey Humpers → Repeat previous exercises → Lap
4. Freak Nasties
5. Dirkens
6. Stone Mountains
7. Diamond Merkins
The group pushed through as many rounds as possible before circling up for a 10-minute core finisher, which included the must-have Wife Pleasers—a crowd favorite.
Closing:
BBQ led the COT (Circle of Trust) and closed in prayer, with special attention given to all the new grandbabies in his group, making sure those extra grandbabies are well cared for. Just a bunch of old guys discussing the world as always!
A strong, cold, and windy morning well spent—thanks for the leadership, and see you on the flip side!
