Plenty o’ PAX showed for the Wednesday workout at Martha’s House. With all due respect to leaders past and present, the rightful name of this AO is exactly that, Martha’s House. We discussed this fact throughout the workout. This is what happened…

Pledge of Allegiance

Warmup- Merkins & Goofballs in cadence

Mosey around and through the baseball fields until we ended up in the middle for the beginning part of the Thang.

Leg Wrecker – Split the PAX in two, one side holds the Al Gore while the other side does Lieutenant Dan’s toward the other group. Once there, switch going back the other way. YHC asked those in attendance for the Core Principals of F3, and they got them right, congratulations! They struggled a little with the Mission and we had conversation about that. The second set was the same as the first, then each of the next 3 sets we switched Al Gore’s for Sumo Squats, Bobby Hurleys and finally Monkey Humpers. Legs were wrecked.

Mosey down toward the bottom part of the parking lot near the big turd shack for the next part of the Thang.

Plankorama Mama – a quick hitter going from a plank position exercise to some abs. The order, all in cadence, was: Shoulder Taps, LBCs, Plank, Flutterkicks, Shoulder Taps, Dying Cockroaches, Plank, Freddy Mercury’s. heart rate, engaged! During this section, we covered the Core Principals again, this time expanding into Core Principal #6 – Always Be EHing and #7 – Keep Your Core Tight

Mosey a little way up the lot to a nice section we can run between islands at for the last part of the Thang.

Martha’s House – Use the letters of the word MARTHA for this routine that started with 5 reps of each exercise in order and then a run to the other side and back.

  • M – Merkins
  • A – American Hammers
  • R – Rocky Balboas
  • T – Turkish Getups
  • H – Hillbillies
  • A – Air Claps

We increased to 10 reps and then 15 for the final set.

Mosey back to the start for some Mary, with the instructions that what was called had to be an ab exercise with a max of 10 reps. We made a complete round before time was up. Thanks to Maybelline for the opportunity to lead today. AYE!
