39 PAX met up on the last day of May, which was hot and humid. It was also the last day of the ISI challenge, and maybe that’s why we have close to 40 PAX. YHC couldn’t believe there were no FNGs with that many people. At 5:30, YHC gave his standard disclaimer and off went the PAX.

Warm-ups

Short mosey to the palm trees on Loyola campus and did the following in cadence:

Windmills x 10

Forward Arm Circles x 10

Backward Arm Cirlces x 10

SSHs x 20

Hill Billies x 20

MC x 20

Burpees x 10 OYO (few mumblechatter to start off the day)

PAX then moseyed to the bottom of the WPM. All PAX ran up the entire mountain backwards, but stopped at each flat level and did the following exercises:

  1. 20 x slow merkins IC
  2. 25 x LBCs IC
  3. 20 x Burpees OYO (a lot of mumblechatter here)
  4. 20 x Leg Raises IC
  5. 25 x King Kong Shoulder Taps IC (2 = 1)
  6. Fans’ favorite 20 x Burpees OYO (even more mumblechatter)
  7. 20 x Imperial Walkers IC (2 = 1)
  8. 20 x Plank Jacks IC
  9. 20 x Hello Dolly IC
  10. 10 x Burpees OYO (heard some sarcastic comments about only 10 burpees)

At the top of the WPM, PAX enjoyed the view of the sunrise over the Superdome and Downtown NOLA for few seconds…. then a Round of Mary with the help of the PAX

King Kong – Dying Cockroach x 20 IC

Screw Top – Protractor for few minutes (seems forever)

Kuch – Low Country Crabs x 20 IC

Jesus Juice – American Hammers x 20 IC

Yo Mama’N’Dem – WWII Sit Ups x 20

Jesus Juice yelled out “why are you picking on the Lakeview folks?” YHC was just showing appreciation that these guys are consistently driving from LV to Uptown for a beatdown.

Moseyed back to the flag at 6:15 a.m. A lot of mumblechatter about the burpees this morning, but we ended up with 60 burpees. We all got stronger today.

COT

Count-O-Rama 39 PAX, Name-O-Rama, announcements, intentions. We prayed for safe travels during the summer. We also prayed for Da Parish’s Cousin for a successful treatment at MD Anderson. We are thankful for our health and our ability to workout with each other on a regular basis. Thank You all again for the opportunity to lead. SYITG
