As those of us who have lived here all of our lives these low 60s low humidity mornings that feel like fall in late August are really just a “fake” to make us think the heat is over. Then  – as usual we fry through late September. So with that in mind a determined set of men gathered at the Mt. Hollywood AO to get a little work in to start the week off right. It went like this:

COP:

Arm stretches

SSH X 20

IW X 20

4X Merkins X 10

Plank position – foot to palm stretch.

Peter Parkers X 20

Mosey down to the wall at the elementary school

Dirkins, stepups, Dips, and LBCs.

Round 1 – 10X, 10X (total), 10X 10X

Round 2 – 15X, 15X (total), 15X, 10X

Round 3 – 20X, 20X (total), 20X, 10X

Mosey uptown and make a stop;

HR Merkins X 10

Jump squats X 10

Rosalitas X 10

Mosey over to Veterans Park for a pledge and repeat of the uptown stop.

Climb K2 – All together. Wait for the six in plank before we go to the next stop.

1st bump – 5 burpees

2nd bump – 10 CDDs

3rd bump- 15 Big boys

4th bump – 20 Merkins

5th bump (street past Hawthorne) – 25 American Hammer.

Mosey back to the AO and stop and do 20 regular squats just because.

Mosey down to the field for – you guessed it! Bear Crawl Slalom! 2 rounds apiece.

2 minutes of stretching and COT

NMM:

Nice, nice morning out there today! We had one coming our way after the last 90 or so. Everybody looked great and worked hard. Great to see a strong pax like this one was. Mt. Holly is just a nice place anyway. We need more of a presence up there.

Prayers up for those that work in the school system especially teachers and support staff. And of course the kids themselves. Hopefully everybody stays safe and learns a lot! We need for that to happen.  And we are here to help. Let’s not forget that either guys!

Prayers up the Hamm family, guys on IR (even Dredd) and those we have not seen in awhile also. If you can get with one of our brothers who has been absent awhile reach out and do so. One guy I am thinking of is Wheezy. Know he is dealing with some things and has told me he would like ot get back out. Let’s help make that happen. Be good for all of us.

 

Until next time, honor and a pleasure to lead this crowd.
