The Panthers had a good season.  Best ever.  But to watch them play last night, you have to wonder how.  It was like watching the Bad News Bears don football gear and make a go for it.  Boinking a kick off the upright?  The odds against that have got to be worse than winning a PowerBall.  And how many fumbles . . . I lost count.  It was just painful.  Which leads YHC to the point of this ramble: painful things.  Like this morning’s workout.  Which went something like this:

Mosey around parking lot 2X with few back-kicks and high knees the second round, then over to lighted corner by shelters.  Circle up for:
COP
20-SSH
20-Slerkins (slow Merkins)
20-IW
20-LSS
10-windmills
20-mountain climbers

Mosey to rock pile and select a two-handed rock.  Now we’re ready for the Main Thang:

Partner up and catch-me-if-you-can from bench by rock pile around far soccer pitch and back.  Carry both rocks on shoulders or like footballs, whatever works.  Chaser does 5 hand-release merkins.  Watch your toes switching rocks.  Don’t hit the walkers.

Drop the rocks in a grassy circle and mosey to playground.  Quick 10-count to catch your breath, then find a pullup or supine pullup bar: Up for 5-count, 5-count down, 1 lunge (R+L=1). Up5/down5, 2 lunges. Repeato adding one lunge until 10.

Mosey back to rock circle: 5 overhead rock presses, put down rock, slide left, pick up new rock, repeato until gone around full circle 4X.

5 burpies

5 curls, put down rock, slide right, pick up new rock, repeato until gone around full circle 2X.

Mosey with rock to sand volleyball court and line up long side – spread out.  Squat press to “shot put” the rock as far across the width as possible.  Get rock and fire another shot to get fully across.  Get rocks, line up, put rocks down and slide down to right.  Pick up rock and repeat. Total 4x across.

Mosey back to grassy area and circle up for some Mary:

20-Flutter + press
20-Russian twist
20-Freddie Mercury
20-Rosalita + press

Return rocks and mosey back to parking lot for COT

Announcements:
From Capri: Prayer breakfast 6:00 @ Jimmy tomorrow.  Pre-run (tweet and meet).

Moleskin:
Superbowl hangover must have keep have kept many of our usual Monday group from posting.  But the three who did join YHC were adequately punished with a mix of crazy cardio and riprap ripping.  If you were one of the fearful fartsackers, don’t fret.  YHC is back on Q next week.  And I’ll be sure to have plenty of pain stations to get your work week off on the right foot.

Solid take-out, Poncho.
