Okwata
With all the hype, emergency notices at 3 am, non-working stormwater pumps, rumors, politicians and of course rain, main themes of this workout was levee and water.
Warmup (typical) at the fountain:
SSH X 25
Windmills X 20
IW X 20
Arm Circles X 31
Mosey to levee for long mosey over to circle of benches
During way over, embrace the levee by running 4 hills up and down, a bit wet though at the toe, even more water getting to benches…
Circle of Benches
One full rotation of benches,
Dips X 10 each bench, with feet in the water below benches, but no rain entire workout!
Lunge from bench to bench
Mosey back to Lakefront and over to Canal Blvd
4 corner Burpees
Each corner had (10) on odd corners and (5) on even
Repeated again, running in between including up & down levee
Mosey back up the levee and to picnic tables with chin up bar for some rotations
Rotations
A foul smell came from the trash can originally assumed to be crawfish, but we are out of season…. Eventually our smell overtook it.
Time keeper was running up levee with (5) squats at the crown, and back down
Other stations were chin ups and mercans, now we are getting tired
Core Work
Final last focus on one area we missed out on
Held plank for ~ 2:00 minutes focusing on Breath
In honor of Louis Armstrong’s birthday last Friday We did (117) Hello Dolly’s (well it sounded good at first like Satchmo, we stopped at 20 due to bad timing…)
Russian Twist 15
Held plank again for 1:30
Back to invisible flag for COT, nam-a rama, count, intentions, announcements, etc
Well I myself enjoyed it, I am feeling it tonight, hope all other felt the same. Safe travels from our fellow South Carolina PAX and new friend that came over to get a taste of humidity.
I’ll take tomorrow off but instead hope to see everyone on the radio bright and early (90.7 FM WWOZ), who nows maybe I will mix in some Memphis Minnie or Pops.
