Preamble:
It was approximately eight years ago we moved down from Boston…the week of Snowmageddon. Leaving New England, we wondered how one inch of snow could paralyze a city. Now we know…and we’re ready. With a storm expected on Sunday, it’s time to play tribute to the best and worst of Atlanta weather.
Warm-O-Rama:
Mosey to the water for SSHs, copperhead squats, weed pickers, arm circles and Covids. Did the snowman shuffle back to the parking lot to begin the beat down.
The Thang:
Let the game begin…group divided into two teams for some Atlanta weather trivia (with some 1982 baseball mixed in). Get the answer right and control your destiny. Answer incorrectly, and the other team decides the punishment. One team will be performing the exercise showing on the die, while the other is doing a lap around the parking lot. Unfortunately, not too many correct answers about the largest snowfall, hottest temperature or manager of the ’82 Braves. (Who doesn’t remember Joe Torre?) Each team got a few laps, along with American hammers, Bonnie Blairs, merkins and jump squats mixed in.
After the game, PAX went shopping in anticipation of the storm and grabbed a coupon. With the coupon, 20 reps of curls, wonderbras and skull crushers followed by Lt. Dan up the parking lot. Rinse and repeat with 10 reps of each. For a little core work, beat down continued with 20 reps each of Freddie Mercurys, LBCs and merkins with a Bernie up the parking lot.
Coupons were put back and beat down concluded with 10 False Start-requested burpees.
COT:
Prayers for Funyun’s coworker Claude whose family suffered a terrible loss, for family friends of Milli Vanilli who also suffered a tragedy, and for NRA’s sister-in-law who’s having a tough time with chemo.
