Build a dog house* – Ladder of Merkins and Air-Lifts: 1 Merkin, move to knees for 1 Air-Lift, 2 Merkins, 2 Air-Lifts… up to 10 of each – we did not come back down the ladder as PAX (YHC included, again) had had enough.
Mosey around the path/track of the park, about a mile, stop at the back parking lot for the thang – this is around the time someone almost soiled themselves.
The Thang
PAX paired up for an Ab Dora – one performed exercise while the other ran a lap around the building, then switch
100 Flutter Kick, hard count
150 Imperial Walkers, hard count
200 Mountain Climbers, hard count
250 Freddie Mercuries, hard count
300 Heel Touches, hard count
Rinse/repeat the above until…

COT
Stress, and how YHC has been dealing with it lately (hint: not well) discussed. We all have many stressors in life and have the ability to choose our reaction. Typically, the culprit is our reaction, not the situation/issue/etc. itself. YHC mused upon his readings of Stoicism and how this philosophy has helped him in dealing with stress in the past.
“Man is not worried by real problems so much as by his imagined anxieties about real problems.” — Epictetus
Moleskin
*YHC has never attempted this exercise – “If you can’t do it, don’t Q it” may have been mumbled by all
PAX requested music for the Thang – YHC obliged with a terrible throwback/90’s hip-hop playlist
“You know it’s a decent workout when Sousa shats himself.” “I don’t think he actually did, so just OK?”
“I got one ab! Feel it, feel it!!”
