  • 90s Mania

    Time to go back to the way back machine to see what happened on Monday, in the virtual gloom! The EB Games was fresh out of neon everything so YHC settled on a 90s soundtrack to play during the beat down instead. Enjoyed the humor of listening to Bonnie Tyler, Sir-Mix-a-Lot etc. during the 530am gloom!

    COP

    • SSH
    • Russian Soldiers
    • Cherry Pickers
    • Hello Dollies

    THANG #1 (The Michael Jordan)

    First time doing a “theme” Q in the virtual gloom. Went well, excited to bring this one to the in person gloom soon. At some point YHC audibled the burpees to merkins which may have only made it worse!

    Prayers for Don Draper’s coworker and family.

    NMS:

    Doublemint posted solo to SOT this morning, so dialed in to VR, Dawg to be with the PAX. Brilliant! PAX are welcome to use that option on Mondays and Wednesdays if they find themselves posting solo. The link is on Slack.

    Honeydo officially Zoom-proofed his Monday beatdown, so YHC had to look elsewhere for inspiration. The May Daville Merkin Challenge was the inspiration for today’s workout. Merkin count was 195.

    Want to join us in the Zoom gloom? Here is a checklist:

    1. Prepare your tech.
      1. Wireless earbuds, wired earbuds with phone in pocket, laptop, and tablet have all been successfully used.
      2. Download and test the Zoom app.
      3. Prepare a ziplock bag for the phone.
      4. Test your sound and Wifi/cellular signal around the outside of your property ahead of time.
    2. Let the dog out so they don’t bark at you as an intruder.
    3. Make peace with the neighbor’s dog.
    4. Mondays, bring a coupon.
    5. Wednesdays, identify a step or bench for dips, derkins, step ups, etc.
    6. Clean up after the dog the night before.
    7. Add your typical drive time to your sleep. But not more. Getting set up can take some time in addition to all the usual morning routines.

    Thank you to the PAX who came out today. Beautiful weather this morning for a good sweat. Helps to take one’s mind off the whole pandemic thing. Which least important of that is the absence of sports. However at this point YHC is nearly getting the shakes from lack of sports.
