Do as I say, not as I do.

Seven men showed up at dawn at Ridge Road Middle School this morning to see what Snowsuit had in store for them. The sun was hidden behind the clouds, but the humidity was really high. After completely forgetting the disclaimer, we proceeded with a workout where YHC was totally liable. It went something like this…

Mosey around the parking lot

Penny Picker x12

Windmill x10

PAX Pair up
1. Partner 1 does merkins until Partner 2 runs to the bench and does dips. Switch. Repeato till a total of 150 merkins are complete.
2. Partner 1 does jump squats until Partner 2 lunges to the bench and runs/walks back. Switch. Repeato till a total of 150 jump squats are complete.
(This was the part where the Q kept running across the lot instead of lunge… multiple times)

Stretches
COT/Moleskin
– we prayed for strength to be better men, better fathers, better husbands, better sons, better leaders/workers on the job, and for wisdom to make everything better than we found it.
– the work was hard today, but the comradery was really great! Everyone was putting forth their best, and it’s all a Q expects. Yes, 60s does seem like a long time when you are doing merkins, but you pushed through and finished strong. Good work!
– YHC is really glad no one was injured today, as I completely missed the disclaimer before the workout. But really, nobody caught it until the Q brought it up after mary… so it was redeemed.
– there was talk about getting a Pickleball match going, or maybe starting a Pickleball training camp in the near future.
