Punching the Penguin

A handsome set of Forge regulars showed up for superhero training. It was humid, and exhausting, and a perfect way to choke out the Jester of excuses and sloth.

The THANG:

WARMERAMA:

• Mosey to the flagpoles and circle up
• Welcome & Disclaimer
• Variable IC Reps to get the muscles warm top to bottom
• Mosey down to the lower lot

Batman Workout: 

• 10 sets is the goal
• Each set:  x20 squats, x40 Punches, x10 Ball Dippers (2-ct), x10 Merkins, x20 Shoulder Taps, x20 Mtn Climbers (2-ct), x10 WWII Punches, x10 Straight Leg Raises, x10 Am.Hammers (2-ct)
• After each set, run the parking lot loop

Mosey BTTF:

• En route hold Al Gore for Doozy putting the headlock on a local sad clown walker
• Bernie up the hill BTTF

COT:

• Counterama # 8
• Namerama
• Announcerama (see Comments)
• YHC took the PAX out in Prayer

NMS:  So apparently great minds think alike, considering Florence did a version of this Batman Workout at R&R last Saturday while YHC was out of town. House Party was the only one who had the “pleasure” of double dipping, and informed me after that they’d done the x10 sets of each exercise in succession rather than in circuit. Either way, The Batman workout is a absolute smokefest. TClaps to Fresh Prince who finished all x10 Rounds and did an extra round while we ran down the clock. YHC completed 8, and pretty sure Doozy quite nearly got to 10. YHC closed out our COT with a testimony and encouragement to reconsider to quality and quantity of that which we consume, which the QSource specifically refers to as The Queen. It doesn’t matter how much we workout if we are loading our systems with junk. Choose something to give up for a day or a week, and use the ensuing hunger you feel for that normal indulgence to pray/meditate or consume something healthier. Accountability matters, so tell a brother what your doing. Love, DTH
