Return to TP

Several faithful Turning Point pax, and even some that roam from AO to AO came out to Turning Point this morning to see if YHC could still call an exercise. Or, maybe they just came to see if YHC could even do the exercises that got called this morning. Quisenberry was even early.

Weather: mid-70’s, humid, clear with dew on the ground

The Pax gathered around YHC for a quick introduction, disclaimer, and prayer. After that, there was no need to put it off any longer. So, we started.

Burpees 5 OYO (It was at this point that YHC remembered it would be nice to have gloves)
SSH 20-IC
TTT 20-IC
(The AOQ decided to fumigate the area. So, we moved up the parking lot a little ways.)

Burpees 5 OYO
Up-SH 20-IC (Up Straddle Hop is SSH, but on one leg)
Windmill 20-IC
(The AOQ decided to fumigate the area. So, we moved up the parking lot a little ways, AGAIN!!)

Burpees 5 OYO
Up- SH 20-IC Other leg
Mountain Climbers 20-IC
(Again, the AOQ and his fumigating)

Mosey up and around the parking lot, over to the knee wall.
Step-ups Left leg first 20 OYO Recover in tricep dip position
Tricep dips 20-IC
Decline merkin 10-IC
Step-ups Right leg first 20 OYO Recover in tricep dip position
Tricep dips 20-IC
Incline merkin 10-IC
Jump ups on the curb 20 OYO
The pattern has been set. Just know, there wasn’t a whole lot of “Good work Canseco” called out there this morning. He was in rare form, even for him. From this point on, figure every move was preceded by some AOQ activity.
