Well, the workout was tough this morning, not because of the burpees, not because of the wall-sits, not because of the heft of the flannel, not even because of the cold. It was tough because so many of us were dressed up like lumberjacks that the ESPN cameras and onlooking diehard fans and folks needing trees chopped down just kept getting in the way. We did our best to alleviate that problem, citing Mr. David Chappelle: “Just because I’m dressed this way does not make me a [lumberjack].” Appropriate person/stand-up act to cite here? You be the judge . . . but the answer is definitely no; I’m not even going to hyperlink the feed to that clip, though if you were to look it up, the word lumberjack may or may not have replaced the words “police officer” . . . maybe, maybe not; I won’t say. Aaaaanyway, the important stuff is below.
Workout:
Chipper team workout: Up-n-over pattern with stops along the way.
East side upper stop: team splits 60 burpees; one person does part of the exercise while the others hold wall-sits until their turn to “chip” away at the tree that is the entire 60 reps.
Southsiiiiiide: team chipping away at 60 push-ups with plank holds while you wait
West side upper: 60 Russian twists with hollow-holds (aka “Russian twists without the twist”, aka as Shaw noted, “Russians”) while waiting
North side: 60 dips, wall-supported handstands or brain-drainers while you wait.
Notes:
- Big thanks again to the Lakers for hosting our NP Tribesgiving!
- Thank you Jaden for the photography work!
- Friday’s workout will be on the south end of the canal by The Tent; it’ll be cold, but, well, don’t mind that. Tropical paradise compared to what it sounds like next week has in store.
- Tag everybody on FB, and give a supportive shout-out to a rando out in San Fran if it comes to mind; after all, we are tribal relatives with them, and tis the season.
Have a fantastic week!
