Soft Launch, Hard Abs

June 24, 2019

WHEN: 06/24/2019
QIC: Happy Trees
PAX: Soda Popinski, Magellan, Green Egg, Roach, Jeeves, Funny Money

Today was the second of two soft launches ahead of the main launch on July 1st. YHC lamented to the PAX that he was underwhelmed with the state of his abs when he noticed them at the pool this past weekend. This inspired the ab shred that ensued. One of the features of Riverside High are the many fire escape stairs that convey students to safety in the event of an emergency. Six of them to be exact. Today we explored in detail each of them in a unique way.

Warm up – SSH 20x, Willie Mays Hayes 11x, Mt. Climber 20x, Slow Merkin 10x, Good Morning 10x, shake what you got OYO.

The Thang

Mozy to the first stair. All PAX get in a plank while one runs to the top of the stairs and does five merkins. Runs back down resume plank until all have had a turn.

Mozy to stair 2. Same setup, WWII at the bottom while taking turns running up and doing 5 merkins.

Stair 3 – 6 inch leg hold

Stair 4 – Peter parkers

Stair 5 is different it is a double switchback wide stair. Here we ran to the top of the stairs tagged the wall and ran back down. 5x

Stair 6 – LBC and Johnny Drama 2x 20x

Run it back. We proceeded to run to the top of each stair in reverse as we made our way back to Startex. Just for fun and to fit the Happy Trees GPS art theme we paced out a star on the lower parking lot.

COT – No prayer requests. 2nd F lunch tomorrow at East Cut Sandwiches noon. YHC took us out.
