12 hard-chargers sallied out to pay their Estate Tax (aka the death tax) this fine morning. We are not aware of anyone actually dying, but there were some definite close calls.
The THANG:
FLR ( front leaning rest) for muster, instruction and inspection. Disclaimed. Morph into some mobility stretch which then morphed into some 'Merican action. The 'Mericans continued throughout the morning at 5 min intervals. Always a crowdpleaser (sarcasm). Always draws threats against YHC and his trusty Timex. It takes a lickin and keeps on tickin…
.25 mile mosey to get the heartrate up… side shuffle, backwards, carioca, back to launch point for CoP.
25 x ssh
15 x windmill
1 min x IJR
15 x air squats
Mosey to the school swing set for our first pyramid: Pull-ups/push-ups in ascending 1:3 ratio x 10 sets ending at 10 pullups/30 push ups. Crowdpleaser (sarcasm)
Mid workout mobility moment (ie 5 mins of stretching). Crowdpleaser (it actually crowdpleaser, eliciting much rejoicing from the pax… no sarcasm)
Mosey back to hill for bear crawl down hill and crawl bear back up hill. Then tack on a set of MiniMe special windshield wipers back up the hill. Crowdpleaser (sarcasm).
Mosey to the rock pile for a long session of "Stone your neighbor" which included mucho curls, skull crushers, bent over rows, etc.
Stay in the stone circle for the grand finale as we buitl another pyramid a la Rock Webb. It was push-ups/rock shoulder presses at a 1:4 ratio ascending up to 6:24.
.25 mile lap
Fin.
Ye olde Estateskine:
1. AFter much EH'ing to stay for another round after Excelsior, Jolly departed the AO to much scorning from the pax, only to return a few minutes later with 2.0 in-tow. 2.0's f3 name renamed a mystery, and she ultimately settled on the self-annointed "Jolly Roger, Jr.". No matter the name, she crushed the workout by smoking the pax on the .25 mile laps, showing us what stretching should look like, and assuming the role of Lou Duva during the pull-up-amid. Strong showing from the pirate family!
2. Snake Eyes lost his razor.
3. The Estate west-siders are working up a sweet new patch for anyone dumb enough for their weekly triple down opportunity. Stand by for that.
4. Something big was going on in the end zone of the football field. Seem like some kind of Area 51 project.
5. Not sure how many 'Mericans we did… 300?
'Twas an awesome morning pax. Much mumblechatter. Much effort. Much fun. A date with Estate is always great! Aye.
Goat sends.
