6 PAX gathered in the muggy gloom at Devil’s Ridge. YHC had promised a “Merkin Monday” workout, and did not want to disappoint.

Warmup

  • Harvester x 12
  • WMH x 10
  • LBAC/Reverse x 12 each

 

Had a lot to get done, so we kept the warm-up short and proceeded directly to the

Thang

  • YHC laid it out from the start: all PAX moseyed around campus, stopping at roughly 1 minute intervals (kept and called by YHC with his watch) to perform OYO sets of 10 Merkin-variations
    • Regular
    • Wide
    • Diamond
    • Carolina Dry Dock

 

Locations toured included: Crowell Quad, Clocktower Quad, Duke Chapel, Student Union (well, the parking lot), Science Drive, Towerview Road, Cameron Indoor Stadium, Krzyzewskiville, Wallace Wade Stadium, Basset Drive, the JB Duke Hotel.

 

By YHC’s count, we made it through the whole rotation 10 times, which is 10 x 4 x 10 = 400 reps
