Day: August 2, 2018

Knowing the weather peoples were calling for rain and possible storms, YHC wasn’t too optimistic about the turnout at Folsom this morning. After all, a few of the regular PAX have just gone M.I.A. here lately. Anyway, I roll in a little early to assess the situation. It wasn’t until about 5:25 that headlights started pulling in. No rain as of yet and there’s a cool breeze. 5:30 hits.

mosey down and make a lap around the lower parking lot finishing up back at the tennis courts.

YHC calls out for 3 exercises recommendations. Considering I’m not really capable of performing shoulder exercises, I put the Q in the PAX hands. Mumblechatter immediately began about “how many…….what is it……etc “ I continued without clues of what was in mind, even though there was a pretty solid clue on Twitter last night. Exercises finally called, Burpees, LBCs, Sumo Squats.  Now, to get to the jist of it. Sparky had introduced 20-1 a while back using blocks. Rather brutal routine it was. I had a slightly different approach to it. We use the four corners of the tennis courts. 20 of each exercise at corner 1 then mosey to corner 2 for 19 each. You get the point, continue until you get down to 1 of each. Then the mumblechatter chatter got worse “I would’ve called something other than burpees, Bkah blah blah.” Anyway, all took off OYO. Some finished at 7, some finished at 9. Do what you can until Q calls time. After we hit corner 15, the rain hit. Some were saying They should’ve brought soap. Felt pretty good at first, then the downpour came. It lasted a good 15 minutes and was rather refreshing. Once all were nice and soaked I saw 6:14 on the dial so we mosey back to start.

Glad to see Def Leppard out on a weekday morning at Folsom. Also glad the others who post weren’t afraid to get a little wet. I won’t call them out, but some messaged in afterwards to say “yeah, it was raining so I rolled back over and went back to sleep.” Way to push men who posted. I think the routine can be finished completely incorporating just 2 exercises or cutting out the warmup, but none-the-less, work was Did. Honor to Q as always.
