Hill Climbing at Midoriyama

A perfectly warm afternoon at the greatest afternoon AO anywhere and a slight crowd of 5 showed up to put in some work. Pockets had to work so I picked up the Q so it was going to be a simple one.

Pledge
Warmup: SSH, Cotton Pickers, Hillbillies, Low Slow Squats, MNC’s
Mosey down the road through the woods and to the picnic shelter where we find a nice couple sitting at the back table and a large dog who was not happy to see us.
The Thang:
10 Derkins
10 Step Ups
10 Dips
10 LBC’s
10 CDD’s
10 Reverse Crunches then
Run down the hill to the pier and return and do this 5 times.
Freight led the way despite his foot giving him some problems. Wojo passed me pretty quickly too but we all got in some tough work. One time I was asking which number we were on and the couple sitting at the back table said “That was three”. Dang, I had two more to go. That dog really wanted to join the hill run.

We mosey back through the woods and stop at the extra asphalt beside the road for a few AB exercises.
10 WW1’s
10 American Hammers
10 Flutter Kicks
10 Freddie Mercuries (Get on your bikes and ride)
10 LBC’s
1 Minute Plank
Repeat this doing 5 reps of each AB exercise and repeating the 1 minute Plank. Planking a minute is tough. The world record plank time is over 9 hours but I found a minute is plenty for me.

Mosey back to the flag and time is up.

Oompa Loompa took us out.

*NMM Calling all F3 Pax to give the afternoon AO a try. It is always a tough workout and the candor and mumblechatter are top notch. I know how easy it is to give in to the busyness and the laziness but I am always glad that I posted at Midoriyama. Thanks to all the guys who showed.
