Preamble:

It's Friday. PAX are eager to wrap up the week on a high and go into the weekend charged up and fit! Let's go!

Warm-O-Rama:

Usual disclaimer. Everyone knows, don't sue anyone. You're responsible. I'm not a professional. Modify as necessary.
  • 25 SSH IC
  • 10 Weed pickers IC
  • Get in mercan position for the start of the song (exclamations of joy, glee even, could be heard from the PAX) as the song Flower by Moby came on. Up you go up, until you hear Down, then you go down. Stay in the position you're in until you hear down or up; this is your key to move. Let's get to it. 3 minutes of pure MERCAN pleasure and joy. Most of the time is spent in the low plank (down Mercan) position. This is a crowd pleaser. One pax may have commented about how this was not a warm-up; after the song finished all PAX were warm though!
  • Next up: modified Mountain Climber, heel tough 10 IC

AND TIME!
The PAX were so disappointed that the BD came to a close. Mumblings could be heard....so great could have gone on with these exercises for another 15 - 30 minutes. Too bad time had to end.

COT:

Sprocket's sister & bro-in-law for peace during this time as Jessie Ruth is on hospice care.  

Naked-Man Moleskin:

It is always a pleasure to lead at Badapple. The grumblings are less when the BD is hard. Happy Friday and have a great weekend.
