Look What We Made You Do. (NOLA)

Are you levee for it?

Earlier this week, the following conversation took place between Matt, Alex and me.

The idea was initially attempted a few weeks ago when I played only Taylor Swift songs at the levee, but that time was on a whim. This time would be different.

This time, we had wigs, a planned playlist, and an EPIC workout to go with it. And don’t forget the BOUNCE.

For those who missed out, you can try and recreate the following:

Old vs. New Taylor levees… New Taylor song, run up forwards. Old Taylor song (sorry, she’s dead), run up backwards.
A Circuit with a Song Twist
- Circuit: 10 situps, 1 pushup then roll & repeat til light pole, 10 skaters, frog jump to next pole, 10 crabby abbys, bear crawl to next pole, then run back to start
- TWIST: Play the following songs and whenever the key word is mentioned, stop and give me a burpee
  - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together // Key Word: Together
  - Red // Key Word: Red
  - Bad Blood // Key Word: Blood
  - I Knew You Were Trouble // Key Word: Trouble
  - That’s a total of 72 burpees
Plank Space… Plank to the entirety of Blank Space
Taybata – Do Tabata to an awesome TSwift Song (we chose 22).

But I want to pause for a second and just take in what we’ve created here. How GOOD this shit really is.

As a co-leader, I can sometimes have some really insane ideas. And I know they’re insane when y’all moan at me or roll your eyes after I explain the plan. But no matter how insane or crazy or difficult or easy or confusing something may be, y’all still do it. Every. Single. Time. Do you realize how amazing that is? I mean, look at me…

And somehow, you STILL wake up (minus you, @Caleb), layer up, bring friends, moan and groan, roll your eyes, and SHOW UP. I may be biased. But there’s no doubt in my mind that this tribe is the best tribe (sorry #FartyFour). The members of this tribe make all of these crazy ideas, early mornings, 5 cups of coffee, and distracted hours at work (oops) well worth it. So thank YOU for making the first annual #AllTayFriday the most exciting, fun, warm workout yet. I am SO glad you’re here.
