Cardio with no Running

F3-SSI Ironman.  Our traditional light to no running, lifting focused workout.  Sure the muscles ache, but the heart rate never gets going that much right?

Any exercise that we do quickly, we can also do slowly and any transition that we do slowly, we can do quickly.  And guess what, if you do that you can spike your heart rate.  I have seen evidence that FidgetSpinner got his heart rate to 174!

So we fired up the tunes and began our Warm Up with a little UptownGirl by Billy Joel

 

Warm Up

Side Straddle Hop

Little (and Big) arm circles (forward and back)

Weedpickers

 

The Thang – the exact order may be off and the numbers varied based upon the groans

Merkins

Squats

Carolina Dry Docks

Flutter Kicks

Overhead lifts from deep squat

Weighted lung walk

 

– oh yeah, I had some cones in the trunk and put out 7 of them.  With weight we lunged to the first cone and walked to the second.  Did that down and back.  The heavy metal songs were on the tunes by now.

We hit it hard and with little time between exercises.  My apologies to Bundy for cutting off his ten count halfway through.

 

COT – 9 PAX (almost 10 as there was a rumor floating around that Dunker was considering joining us and there was a possible sighting of him in the woods lurking)
