Confusion in Hollywood

Event Date

Apr 16, 2025


Those monitoring the news wire early Wednesday morning probably saw headlines about a power meeting in Hollywood.  Both TMZ and People magazine were reporting that Robert Redford, Brad Pitt, Jason Mamoa and George Clooney had gathered in what amounted to a “real live Mt Rushmore of Hollywood leading men.”

Turns out it was just Uncle Rico, Soprano and Deep Dish with YHC at the Hollywood AO.  An easy mistake was made.

When we arrived to the launch pad – there were several concrete mixing trucks working on what seemd to be the sidewalk in front of the old Total Wine.  To avoid the noise – we took our show on the road.

After our warm o rama – we made our way around the Village.  Here’s most of what we did along the way:

  • Wall Stuff at the theater including: People’s Chair, Praying Mantis, One armed push-aways (not sure if there’s a real name for this exercise.  I stole it from Jersey Boy) and Australian Mountain Climbers.  
  • We went to the original launch area of Hollywood and did wall stuff including: dips, incline Mericans and Alternating Step Ups.
  • Lap around the theater and mustered on the other wall near Barre. Where we did some Calf raises.
  • Head to the next parking deck.
  • An ode to Soprano: Partner A ran to the top and did 5 burpees while partner B did an exercise AMRAP.  Exercises included – Mericans, Squats and LBCs.
  • Head to the corner where the now closed Kung Foo Noodle (RIP) sits.  We each took a post on one of the 4 corners.  Each PAX led an exercise around the horn.
  • Head to the center of the village.  We made our way around the Pain Clock alternating bear crawls and lunge walks.
  • Head for home.
  • Mary.
  • Recover Recover.

Good group of Isotope stalwarts.  We prayed for Deep Dish’s mom who is having a medical procedure done.  2 for coffee at Caribou – didn’t see anyone else. They all must have been at the Sudz run.

Peace,

Holiday
