3/13/2025. 15 ITG for a journey. “Look forward to every day as you are about to embark on a great adventure” (Major Doug Zembiac, USMC).
Warm-up: mosey to adult playground. Hop, groove and jumping-jack to music. 1/2 way thru, do 1 full range, controlled pull-up. Continue in a relaxed fashion. Did approx 10 pull-ups each. Back to warm up to fast pace music. Lots of jumping jacks. HR was up.
Mosey to Western Av. Anytime “Jungle Boogie” was playing, we were doing fitness. This time was OYO Merkins. Maybe you did 15. Maybe you did 35. Who knows. Mosey to other side of Solidier Field Rd. JB to Air Squats. Mosey to outside amphitheater adjacent to the Charles.
Thang: The journey began with an explanation. Your humble Q had a mission to create something and the ask was to follow along. We breathed our way into the start of a 12+ min song and then as a unit, we crushed fitness as a team, together, to synchronized movements to the songs different parts. The exercises were varied, the tempo changed, but the message was simple. We are all warriors, but we struggle nevertheless. If we do it together, we are stronger. Our shield is not as heavy, our burdens are lighter. 12:44 seconds later, we were more fit, and emerged tighter. The journey will continue nevertheless…
Mosey back, JB played and it was mountain climbers into air squats.
Three stretches were requested and performed. @Gomer Pyle RVA led us on the final one. He can tell you the name.
COT…let us not forget perspective.
Coffee: Starbucks killer @Jello for the W.
