Anyone who was present knows that YHC was named for a legendary fro rockin’ artist and public
television hero with which he shares a common interest. The name does not derive from enjoying the
use of any “trees” that may make you happy (or possibly curl up into the paranoid state of defense
known as the fetal position). This morning, however, may have gathered some suspicious glances when
YHC had somehow forgotten entirely what month it was and ran the first September CORE workout in
the first week of August. Mix this with some cadence falters, giggles and backwards exercise
explanations and…well, now YHC is starting to question himself. Self-reflection and positive life choices
aside, this morning was a gift as usual. Our close knit AO does wonders for starting the day with
fellowship and I am always amazed at how hard these ‘clumpy flour’ brothers of mine push each other.
Conditions: Breezy enough for bears to crawl, no offense to bears.

hit the next exercise)
