Intro:

YHC has always liked making friends. It takes a lot of effort and vulnerability to put yourself out there, but the result is always gratifying. Friendship is demanding, but to be done together. YHC wanted a workout that would capture the demands of that fundamental human connection.

YHC and the PAX were most certainly not disappointed.

Warmup:
20 SSH
10 LBACs and Reverse
10 Imperial Walkers
10 WMH
10 merkins OYO

The Thang:
1) We did a quick mosey over to the hill path by the skatepark. PAX partnered up and set off to do a short ladder: starting with 6 booyah merkins on top and 1 bropee at the bottom, then running until we got to 1 and 6 respectively. We encountered a group of locals that decided to join for our regimen, but none remained. Still have to work on that active recruiting.

2) Quick mosey to the farmers market field. Same partners as before, we did a modified wheelbarrow down and back:
– 5 derkins in wheelbarrow position
– wheelbarrow as far as possible
– 5 squats then switch (if needed)

Friendship interlude for everyone’s favorite: bearpees across farmers market field! That’s starting to become one of my signatures. Got a lot of feedback from the group about how much they appreciate bearpees as well.

3) Mosey back to Bullpen for some wall action:

Part 1 (four minutes): Dora with one partner doing BTTW, and the other doing sprints to the parking gate and back.

Part 2 (four minutes): Dora with People’s Chair, while the partner does 30 overhead claps.

4) Mary
– 25 Freddie Mercuries
– 25 flying v’s
– 25 hammers
– 25 flutters
– 10 lbcs

COT: Prayers of gratitude for clarity in Betamax’s career and life, and of safety and enjoyment for Nickleback and his family during their travels. Welcome to FNG Choir Boy! Also, shoutout to PAX Sweatervest on his birthday post!
