Nice, breezy Spring morning at the Patriot and as YHC arrived at the AO, it was already buzzing with activity!  A new record attendance was about to occur as 15 PAX showed up!  The theme of the day was pairs of exercises in various formats, and the PAX were pleased with the results.

Warm up:

17 Side Straddle Hops and 17 Plank Jacks i.c.

10 Baryshnikovs (ea.leg) and 10 Run Stance Switch i.c.

13 Crab Taps and 13 Sumo Squats i.c.

The Thang:

Mosey to amphitheater for paired tabatas: Decline Merkins and Sumo Squats alternating 20 sec on, 10 sec rest 8X each.

Mosey to picnic pavilion for Pyramid: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2 Crab Taps (i.c. count; some remedial counting was in order for some of the PAX!) alternating with 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Chinooks (also i.c. count; very painful at 50!)

Mosey back to the track for an 800 of 50’s – jog 50 m then sprint 50 m for two laps (YHC had planned for a mile of 50’s, but as usual with a 45 minute workout, was running out of time!)

Mosey back to start for Mary: 17 Low Dolly and 17 High Dolly, 17 Low Flutter and 17 High Flutter, 10 L over R and 10 R over L obliques

CoT:

Leon took us out.  Beer ruck still planned for Saturday; details to follow on Slack.  Two FNGs (thanks Shrinkage for EHing them!)  Welcome Road Kill and Sashimi!

Naked Man Moleskin:

Great to see such a large group at the Patriot!  Must be because of our great site Q (way to go Diablo!)  We had been averaging around 6 PAX on Monday’s and Wednesday’s, but we broke through the barrier this week with 14 on Monday and 15 today.  Keep coming back!
