Sometimes… You will miss a workout or not be able to make it, read about it and go “wait I should have been there for that”. A return to the old ways where it was more of a recovery style(not a whole lot of hard work adding some flexibility work to get the body ready for the weekend). 8 ventured out on a slightly warmer Friday morning lead by YHC here’s the breakdown(by the way, whole workout changed up right there except the broga I have been wanting to have an extended session for a while)
A good WARMARAMMA to start out starting with a 30 second plank hold then(SSH, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Dead Man Hangs, Merkins, LBCs, a little stretch) then over to the playground for some pull ups(1 round of 8, while we did planking on the bridge,. Since I have the reach, I did side moving planks yet a version of the death plank can be done there. After that a new one: handing reverse crunches up to the partner’s hands(they push your knees down adding resistance to work that core harder). 1 round 10 reps each person
Back to the flag like I said on the fly I love DORA (100 Merkins, 200 Jump squats, 300 2 count Flutters). We were in cruise control, after that grab the bands, let’s do some broga/stretching. The work was focused on hips, lower body a little balance yet I do have a new term I like to call it “The Cookie”‘. The reason is one I did some stretching out with a Satan’s Hill Q at the end, he was morning and groaning like a cow giving birth. A warning: if we ever went into the flip side and you are there to hear what we bring up, you would go wait where’s this coming from(yet I like it).
One final thing and I wanted to see how it works(10 Navy Seals burpees). The way we did them was you did one, backed up jog in place you’re partner does 1, backs up. It showed things down plus allows you to rest in between reps plus a navy seal burpee(one of the hardest yet at a slower pace, they are easier). A little stretching, time was up. Numbers, names announcement and prayer led by YHC(Rudy’s boss who does not like to fly going to Hawaii, Dumar’s dad still in chemotherapy) to close today’s Q
Go onto the 1st fitness channel. I took last year off from races to change, let my body rest do some things that wee long overdue. An opportunity has presented itself. A race April in Concord, NC(the Super: a 10k 25-30 obstacle race that for those who want to get their first one). There will be a huge F3 presence plus the head of Spartan will be there F3 will be there to shine big time). I am registering next week even though the next week is the Monument Ave 10k I have done races back to back days so I see no reason why I can’t do this then next week the 10k. If you have questions reach out the key is to first sign up(commit) then train the running will be trail like so trail running shoes are helpful. I will see you next time
