Seven posted for the coldest Punisher in recent memory. Vehicle indicated 7 degrees F as of 7 AM. Wind chill apparently below -5 degrees F. Briefest of out-of-the-car greetings then a meandering mosey in search of a place near the parking lot away from the wind (no such location). Posted up on the sidewalk near the entrance to the Women’s Rest Room at Pouncey Tract. Attempt at warmup with some of the usual with emphasis on some stretching given the conditions.
Mosey to the end of the lot and break the group in a couple of clusters for five general stops – complete 14 Merkin reps at two stations, 13 reps at two other stations, and catch a couple of warmer seconds in the Men’s Rest Room at station 5. Total reps – 54.
Resume mosey to the rubberized playground for 12 Days of Christmas – cumulative workout, adding another exercise with reps each additional round. Exercises were: 1 Burpee, 2 Crab Cakes, 3 Close Grip Merkins, 4 Side Lunges (single count), 5 APDs, 6 Rosalitas, 7 Hello Dollys, 8 Jump Squats, 9 Pickle Pounders, 10 SSHs, 11 Flutter Kicks (two count), and 12 LBCs.
Move to the picnic shelter closest to the playground for four rounds of Dips alternating reps as so – 14, 13, 14, then 13.
Circle up on the nearby grass. Dealer’s choice – pick an exercise – chest, legs, abs, whatever – and all complete 10 reps. Between exercises, complete 54 Imaginary Jump Ropes. Same back around the circle again, but with 5 reps.
Finish about 15 minutes early with brief COT and take talk to coffeeteria at Starbucks off of Lauderdale.
