Michael Jordan returned to the Bulls in 1995, Luke Skywalker returned as a Jedi, and dare I say it: The return of the Mack! All of these returns pale in comparison to the return of Darkwing Duck. He finally came back to the A1C. Trumpets blared loudly, confetti fell from …
Cool and windy at The Gipper this morning ~ 42 degrees. WARMUP: all IC15x; toe touch, side staddle hops, arm circles, neck rolls, side to side lunge, shoulder rolls, butt kicks, high knees, monkey humpers, smurf jacks, etc. THANG: 3 sets of block work, mostly in cadence x15, separated by …
Enjoying my week off of teaching, Qing my 3rd straight beatdown, happy to finally workout at the Gipper. The weather: somewhat cool, foggy, but a calm morning. Warm-up: The usual morning stretches to get everyone ready to workout. The thang: It’s Thanksgiving, and when you arrive to the dinner, you …
You know it’s going to be a good beatdown when BBQ comes rolling up with the windows down, music up, rocking out to classic Rock. That’s how we roll at the A1C. Other AOs don’t appreciate the music, some frown at the noise YHC brings with him (side eye to …
A bit muggy at The Gipper this morning ~ 72 degrees. WARMUP: all IC15x; toe touch, side staddle hops, arm circles, neck rolls, side to side stretch, hi-jack hi-jills, butt kicks, high knees, scissors, backward lunge, forward lunge, smurf jacks, etc. THANG: 3 sets of block work, mostly in cadence …
In the sticky, hot air, this workout keeps it simple. Start with 5 minutes of warmup stretches to shake off the sluggishness. Then dive into a set of “11s” on a ramp: Freak Nasties at the top, Merkins at the bottom, with every journey down and up testing your agility—backward …
With a late afternoon text to Steve and YHC, ole Wacker got the Band back together. While it’s been awhile since the 3 amigos from Mandeville had the chance to post at the Gipper. The morning would prove we could pick right back up like we hadn’t missed a beat …
Grundy reached out to Q another Spartan beatdown, naturally, because who else would? But after my last dance with sandbags and buckets, the splash pad can keep that level of punishment. Today, we’re enjoying the beautiful weather at the A1C, and instead of finding new ways to wreck my body, …
Nice and cool this morning ~ 46 degrees, atop the Justice Center Parking Garage deck. And as an extra bonus – the AO was well lit with Thursday’s Hunter’s Full Supermoon. IF BBQ had been there, he would have classified it as…”beautiful.” Warmup: all IC15x; toe touch, side staddle hops, …
It was 52 degrees at the start. After a solid and assorted warm up we moved to the deck of cards to drive the rest of the beat down. Each suit represented an exercise. Aces were 14 reps thru 2’s as 2 reps. Clubs were jump squats. Spades were gas …
