Good afternoon….a little issue with trying to get things coming up so I can complete this. Flex fridays I like to throw in a mixture of new and old things(see how they come out).

A good turnout of 9(originally 8 Hardywood was a little late. When I saw his vehicle, I went “who in the blue hell is this?”). The idea today after yesterday’s training for the 2024 Olympics in the 4×400 relay(lets not quit the day job), come back and take it easy. I wanted to work on a few things that we normally don’t do and hit areas that we all need(trust me, older we get anything to help keep the muscles loose is a plus. Warm-up: SSH, Don Quixote, Helicopters, Arm Circles, Imperial Walkers, Copperhead squats, Merkins, LBCs, Alabama Prom Dates,…

Good afternoon….a little break time as I near the end of my work week. I need to update things with what we did this morning.

The start up(aka the warm-up) SSH, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Helicopters, Cherry Pickers, Merkins, LBCs and Alabama Prom Dates to help get up warmed up and ready. Then it was time for the bands. Luckily…
