YHC rolled into AO at a very premature 5:25 to find two cars already waiting. Despite temperatures well into the 60s, the occupants still didn’t seem to keen on exiting their vehicles. Alas 5:29 shows on the watch, a few more cars roll in and most are ready to go. Disclaimer given while others are still arriving but this train isn’t waiting for anybody; YHC has been on a 3 week hiatus due to travel and illness and is too amped up to waste any time. Let’s mosey.

Circle up at the namesake Rolling Stone for Warmarama (all in cadence):

• 25 side straddle hops
• 10 windmills
• 10 cotton pickers
• 5 regular merkins
• 5 diamond merkins
• 5 wide merkins

Mosey to grab a rock of your liking for the following (all on your own):

• 20 bent over rows
• 20 curls
• 20 up-right rows
• 20 tricep extensions
• 20 shoulder press

Mosey to the stairs… scratch that… to the wall for 10 muscle ups (thanks for suggestion Life Alert)

Now to the stairs for partner wheel barrows up each set up stairs.

Back to the rocks for round two of the previously completed exercises (see above)

Mosey to the planters in front of the school.

• Partner 1 is either doing incline merkins, dips or decline merkins while Partner 2 runs a quick lap around the circle. Switcharoo with the running and exercise.

Back to the rocks for round three of the previously completed exercises (see above)

• Add 10 mason twists with the rocks since we have them. Return your rock to its original resting place.

Mosey back to AO home but daylight is starting to commence so first stop at the entrance to the greenway for a Heatstroke exercise of choice. 10 pickle pokers in cadence. (Un)fortunately no spectators in sight so YHC allowed Heatstroke one more chance to impress/mortify the neighborhood with 10 monkey humpers in cadence. One car, that will have to suffice.

Circle up for Mary

• 25 little baby crunches
• 30 W

Plank until we get some volunteers to Q Thursday and Friday. Marie Callender gets noticeably and abnormally quiet during this time. Not a peep. Sharknado it is for Thursday. Where are all our leaders? Manwich and Love Seat both volunteered but they have been Qing a lot recently. This only works if everybody steps up to do their part.

Recover, recover.

Announcements/Moleskin

• No meaningful announcements.
• May is EH challenge month. Bring a friend, or an enemy.
• But seriously, we need guys to lead. There are a select few who have been doing more than their share. Not sure what to do? Just ask someone. Or go through previous back blasts, print it off and just repeat it. That’s why these get posted, to give you ideas. Is there one particular exercise you love? Then do that for 45 minutes until everybody else hates it. Is there a particular exercise you hate? Here is your chance to avoid it for 45 minutes. It’s like those old kid books, choose your own adventure.
