Experiments at Viking

AO


The benefit of having one other faithful show up to a workout is that you can try some new things.  So, for this installment of Viking, Bagboy and I entered the lab and rolled out a couple new exercises.  Here's what we did:

Warm-Up: mountain climbers, IST, pickers, windmill

Mosey to concession stand for a wall sit and quick conversation.  

Mosey to picnic tables for 15 step-ups/pulses, 15 incline Mericans / pulses, 15 dips/pulses.  Mosey around concession stand.

Repeato (2x) with 10 reps each time.

Mosey to rock pile.

Rock exercises x15,12,10 with mosey between: combo deadlift/  curl, combo chest press / eye buster, squat to press.

Second group:  Rock pullover and crunch up, LBC with rock, chest press with a low dolly.

Rocks back.  Mosey to base with a stop for 10x speed bump Mericans in cadence. 

Recover, recover.

Moleskine:

– Thankful for Bagboy.  He kept me honest today, otherwise I would have probably gone home

– We did a little inventing this morning — wiht the chest press / low dolly, we experimented with starting with rock on chest vs. in the air, and in the air was better.  Coming soon to a workout near you

– Bagboy didn't have time for coffeeteria this morning, but there was a good group from other AO's at the AT&T Starbucks. Goat always makes for a lively coffeeteria!  

– Finally, missed my other regulars this morning.  Outlaw poached Canuck, Moses was out of town, and Jersey Boy was m.i.a.  We probably need a few more regulars…

Anyway, it was a good morning, and I hope it helped Bagboy get his day off on the right foot.
