17 from the greater Richmond area spent their morning at the Bridge with 2 residents. Thank you everyone for the big numbers!
According to the two dogs who took part in almost every exercise, we did the following:
Warmups: SSH, Jazzercise, IW, Ukrainian Walkers, Helicopters, Copperhead Squats, LBCs, American Hammers, Flutters, Merkins and finished with 5 burpees.
Double Quarter Pounder, splitting the blacktop in 1/4ths. First round: 25 Merkins, 50 LBCs, 75 one-count Mountain Climbers, 100 SSH: Bernie back between each exercise. Second round: 25 HRM, 50 Reverse Crunches, 75 Squats, 100 SSH: Bernie back between each.
Triple check time with timer running to the end of the blacktop while partners rotate through flutters and hammers.
Partner up for 5 bro-burpees. Some good form, some eye rolling. Keep your partner for three rounds of 20 partner leg tosses.
Finish with a Beast, warm down style. Exercises includes, 6 helicopters (36 total), 6 two-count jazzercise (30 total), 6 squats (24 total), 6 arm circles forward and backwards (18 each), 6 WW2 (12 total), 6 Merkins.
Circled up with one minute left on our six for holding feet six inches off the ground (really only 45 seconds worth).
All followed by bad coffee and good fellowship at the Bridge, and almost everything good at the Cumberland Diner. The food and service was great.
I was super proud of the Gridiron participation today until we spent an extra 20 minutes at Cumberland waiting for four knuckleheads trying to divide their check in four. The Diner’s NetZero dial-up did not help matters but that was not the main issue. Lesson learned…
You are all now trained to lead the Bridge. Congrats. Pick a Saturday later this year and get Upchuck to hold it for you. If I can get 17, I promise you won’t be alone.
Thanks again for showing up from North of the Wall, South of the Rivah and Westhoe and for all the drivers. My wife’s mini-van survived despite the six smelly pax and the giant speed bump that autographed the undercarriage.
Buckets and Lynx were glad to see us and participate, and that is really all that mattered. Great work by everyone!
