It felt like a long week with an unexpected IPC week 5 and more heavy beatdown opportunity with Shakeweight roadshow to Terminus/Tavern on Friday. So YHC was feeling it and planned for a run focused beatdown to help finish out the week. But just because we planned for more running than lifting didn’t mean the absence of a some fun on the beltline.
Warm up:
SSH, Imperial Walkers, Don Quixote, Tumble Weeds, Merkins, Low Slow Squats, Arm Circles, Neck Circles, Stretching
We even spent some extra time to see if Lord Licorice was going to show up (nope, he didnt’). Time to get to The Thang.
The Thang:
Mosey down beltline to Greenwood Entrance for merkin medley: 10 merkins, 10 wide merkins, 10 hand release release merkins
Back to Mosey at a nice pace to Ponce City Market Pavilion (the shed) for what was some planned legs but YHC called an audible, due to still feeling it from IPC 5, and we did a set of 11s with derkins and dips.
Continue mosey down beltline to stairs to O4W park amphitheater down the stairs by the elevator and New City Development (there so much change/construction going on that YHC had a few misses on the way to the amphitheater). At amphitheater stairs did Stairway to 7:
1 burpee, 1 incline merkin run to top and 1 squat, run back down and increase number all the way up to 7
So far things haven’t been awkward…but on mosey back stopped at Paris on Ponce Deck on Beltline for round of Monkey Humpers and Dirty Dogs for the increasing number of runners/walkers amusement. After enduring awkward looks, mosey continued down the beltline with karoakes and bernie sanders prior to getting back to start.
Finished with some stretching (runners stretch, pigeon stretch, and child pose).
