In an effort to revolutionize the Qing industry with a Visual Exicon, YHC took advantage of his Qing opportunity to access the best talent in SoDu. The PAX showed up on a surprisingly warm but gusty Tuesday morning to shoot some vids and lift some blocks. We proceeded thusly…

Warmup

  • SSH x 15 IC
  • Chinook squats IC (10 forward, then 10 more reversed)
  • Mountain climbers x 10 IC
  • Merkins x 10 SC
  • Plankjacks x 10 IC
  • Merkins x 10 SC
  • WHM x 5 IC

The Thang

Grab blocks, circle up, place one away from circle,  under lights for Hollywood film area with grab bag of exercise descriptions from the Exicon.
Film making is the timer. For everyone else, rotate through the following stations (10 reps & 10 reps & repeato)
  • 0 Blockees & Curls (zero-indexing, not zero blockees…hearts fell when they learned that 🙁
  • 1 Lunges & rows
  • 2 Thrusters & shoulder pulls
  • 3 Swings
Rotate through filming and around block circle.
Took a couple of breaks for merkin ring of fire. Everyone was getting bored of the repeato, and inserted their block exercises of choice.

Mary

  • Heels to Heaven x 61, IC
  • Side planks, both sides, 20 seconds each

And grateful that Palino made it out for two weeks in a row!
