The Thang: The clock hit 5:30 and the pax proceeded through the gloom of SouthPark to start the week out right. Mosey down Barclay Downs Drive with a quick stop at First National Bank at the corner for Mtn Climbers. Pax commented on the strange stamped concrete in the parking lot. Landlord tried to come off as classy, but missed the mark. Lots of focus and chatter on the quality and grit of asphalt lots in F3 Nation.
Frogger across Fairview to parking deck behind B of A Branch (lots of bank branches in this neck of the woods). Find a short round bollard for derkins and dips. Up the deck with backwards run on the uphill. Gamestop had to bear crawl due to low clearance. Must be a small sedans only parking deck. Up and down with variations of merkins and mary on the top with dips and derkins at the bottom.
Mosey to the far lot by the vacant Harris land lot, it's a decent hill in a forgotten corner of SouthPark, probably only frequented by teens looking to smoke weed before going to the mall. Up the hill three times with 10 merkins at the top and 10 squats at the bottom.
Mosey down Fairview and frogger across with dips on a knee wall before back to start. 2 miles covered in the first 30 mins.
Secure the kettlebell for the real pain.
15 minutes of KB, to include lots of rotations of swings, high pulls, overhead push press, curls, skull crushers and goblet squats with rounds of mary in between to include flutters will overhead bell and American hammers with the KB. 90's Tool was the playlist.
Announcements- Fourth of July Convergence at Independence Park, Kodak and Cold Cutz on Q. 7:00 am.
Toolbelt with the takeout.
NMM: YHC finds a post lunch walk through SouthPark makes the afternoon much more productive. One benefit of the walk is finding hidden parking decks and hills you might not see otherwise. Always be on the lookout for inclines to increase the suck factor for workouts.
Lift & Shift- A great way to kick off the week and thanks to Smothered for the keys.
