The calm before the Storm

We never know what we will face, but we can prepare ourselves if we want to go pro.

Here is how it went down at the Storm.

0529:  Dolph told me to start early.  First exercise is SSH x 30 IC

Merkins x 15 IC, LBC’s x 15 IC  Squats IC x 15

Mosey to the side of the school outside the weight room for Jacob’s Ladder.

Bobby Hurley’s on one side, Big Boy situps on the other 1-10, 10-1

Mosey to the baseball bleachers

Three sets of the following:  Step Ups 10 each leg IC, Box Squats, 20 OYO, 50 calf raises.

Lunge walk 50 steps, mosey to find TopHat.  TopHat gives us the green light so we descend to the lower parking lot.

Plank for the six and YHC asks about gratitude.  Families, Kids, Jobs, Health, Fitness,

Next Exercise:  Burpee Broad Jumps at each parking space, mosey to lower lot

GodFather Zombie walk, (2 lunges, one squat) to the next lot

Next exercise, Plank walk on the curbed parking island  all the way around.  I had more to do but time was running short so we circled up for “Nickels and Dimes”.

5 burpees, ten squats-repeado  (Most likely got 4-6 rounds)

Return to start for Mary.  T-Square paid respects to his heritage by calling Appalachian Americans.  TopHat called Moroccan NightClubs.   Dolph snuck in 5 burpees OYO after time expired but we obliged him anyway.

Pledge of Allegiance

Announcements:  JJ5k In Stanley this Saturday at 0900.  5K trail run for charity to benefit East Gaston.  Ragnar the following week.  Need Q’s for the Storm (see Breaker Breaker)

Radar and Wetnuts will be doing the Iron Pax Challenge this Friday at 0530 at New Hope Elementary (Bring a coupon)

Prayer Requests:  Lyn Hamm and her husband who is starting a new job.  Those on IR, Broke’s sister in law with a recent breast cancer diagnosis, Dolph’s brother can use prayers, A mother in law, and Def Leppard’s M’s surgery this week.  Keep the Nantan, Stroganoff, in your prayers.  He is dealing with sinus issues and we need him healthy.

Moleskin:   I had forgotten that I had the Storm Q until I looked at my calendar last night.  I was immediately excited since I don’t usually do Tuesday’s as part of my routine.  It is a great AO with lots of space.  It was good to see many of the familiar faces and some new ones who make Tuesday’s part of their fitness schedules.

If you are interested in the Whetstone program, please let me know.

Please consider donating to the Rotary Pavilion bathroom project.  We will reach our $1000 goal but we need your help.  Please donate to any site Q and YHC and his designee’s will collect this week.

AYE!
