In the cold and dark we assembled in the parking lot. So did two other cars. But once they saw the cop in the dark corner of the lot they sped off together. And so did we….
Twitch took us to the soccer field to warm up. We made it through SSH successfully. But then the Imperial walkers threw him for a loop. Back on track for WMH, then Arm Circles (forward and reverse), Overhead arm clamps and then a nice circuit of step-ups, dips and derkins.
A lap around the field led to Pinky taking over the workout.
To the 5th floor of the parking deck…..for some soothing tunes.
Song 1 — “Cotton-eyed Joe”. PAX had the joy of doing a modified mountain climber and plank jack for the entirety of the song (Google Cotton-eyed Joe Plank Challenge). Dunphy whined this was more like aerobics, but damn he has rhythm.
Song 2 — “SpaceJam”. Special for our SpaceJam. PAX repeated 10 star jumps, 20 squats, 30 rubios. This is a long long song. Many PAX too young to remember SpaceJam, the original. Had we understood how much of an MJ fan SpaceJam was we would have named him Larry.
Song 3 — “Girls”. Classic. 2 merkins overtime they say “girls”; one merkin for every word that rhymes with “day”
Song 4 — “Bodies”. Now that our arms are shot, we did more arm exercises. Joy. Plank position for the whole song. Donkey kick every time you hear “bodies hit the floor”; merkins everytime you hear a number.
Song 5 — “Flower” (aka Bring Sally Up). Who designed this stupid workout!! You know the deal….plank position and follow the commands..up, down, up, down…barf
Song 5b — “Flower”. Repeat but with squats. Much better. Trying to save our arms for the grand finale.
Song 6 — “Roxanne”. Burpees when you hear Roxanne.
6:16….out of time. No mary. No more songs.
Happy monday!!!
