FLORA makes a return to the Tower

You know, when you have an Achilles Tendon that starts causing YHC problems, you look for workouts that won’t hurt your heel.  When word was sent there was a Q needed for #ToT, YHC jumped on the opportunity, or just walked over to it gingerly, as my heel allowed.

After a nice 3 mile rucking warmup with @Puma and @LookOutBelow, here is what went down.

WU

• SSH x25 IC
• Long mosey to the brickpile to make sure everything is nice and loose.

FLORA (aka Floppy Disc’s Lazy Dora w/ coupons)

After arriving at our favorite parking lot across from the coupon station, all with coupons in tow, pax were instructed to partner up for a Flora 1-2-3.  Here’s how it goes:

100 decline merkins

• P1 starts derkins, feet on the coupon, up to 10
• P2 planks through 10 derkins, and then flapjack w/ partner
• Rinse and repeat

200 Big BoySit Ups w/ coupon

• P1 starts BBSU holding coupon, up to 20
• P2 holds coupon above chest, and legs 6″ off ground through 20 BBSU, then flapjacks w/ partner
• Rinse and repeat

300 Goblet Squats w/ coupon

• P1 starts goblet squats, up to 25
• P2 holds coupon in Al Gore position through 25 squats, then flapjacks w/ partner
• rinse and repeat

Slow lap around the islands to work out the legs while the 6 was finishing, and then everyone joins in for the last 25 squats IC.

Still had some time, so let’s go for:

Elevens

• 10 Freddy Mercury at the close island in the parking lot
• Run to the covered awning
• 1 Merkin
• Rinse and Repeat, dropping a round of Freddy Mercury, add a Merkin

5 mins to go, so return the coupons, mosey back to the flag

1MoM

Flutters for a minute

COT

• Annc – Touch base w/ Footloose (@msycreek on twitter) to sign up for #HandsOnGreenville – work day 4/30, working with @HomesofHope
• Prayers –
  • Prayers for @NailPop and family – #WalkerStrong – Walker went to be home with Jesus yesterday
  • Prayers for @OfficerPoncharello – 2.0 having tonsils removed this AM
  • Prayers for @ATM – Wisdom Tooth recovery

@LiteBrite took us out in prayer

This workout is harder than it sounds on paper- the coupons get heavier the longer you go, I promise!  We started with 25 lbs coupons, and I’m pretty sure when we put them back in the stack, they weighed about 70 lbs a piece.

TClaps to @LookOutBelow for wearing the weight vest for the whole post – gotta be brutal brother!

TClaps as well to @LiteBrite, @LookOutBelow, and @Puma for pacing the group on the Elevens

Great work gents!  I wouldn’t be out there without all of you to keep me coming back.
