Date: 4/25/19

PAX: Argyle, Turnover (WB), Rust Bucket (WD), TPS, Boomerang, Whirley, Drip

Well, the title might be just a little embellished, but writing a F3 back blast is a little like telling a fishing story. A little wiggle room with the truth is to be expected. So in full disclosure, I will come clean and mention that we did work other muscle groups other that just our shoulders.

Warmarama: SSH, WWTC, and some extra stretching.

Mosey to small Playground. Partner up: (P1) Slow release Hanging toe touches x5 (P2)Plank Jacks on side of playground border. Flap jack twice

Once back at the parking lot. Mary by TPS and Argyle.

NMM: It was a pleasure to workout with this fine group of men this morning. Everyone gave 150%. While that is mathematically impossible, it sure felt like 150%. Rust Bucket just had to carry his rock with him to and from the Burpee Wall. Whirley was ploughing through the HTH/WWII combos so hard, he forgot to pay attention to his environment that he about ended up a speed bump for a teacher just trying to get to work.  I appreciated the partner work with Argyle and TPS on the Lido deck.  Fast pace and no complaints from either throughout the whole 100. Our boy Turnover always seems to talk a big game about how hard the workout is, but he is always up front and I never really see him out of breath…I guess he is just on another level of fitness than I am.  Boomer kept talking about dance moves and clubs throughout the morning. We weren’t really sure why, but if he has an upcoming secret stint on the Chippendales circuit, and keeps working out like he did today, he’ll definitely be stage ready.

Announcements:  Whirly is turning 50 May 13, finally reaching manhood!
