Ode to Ollie with 7x7 Light Pole Routine


Brisk morning for a workout but 9 HIMs and 1 2.0 made it out to take on my challenge.

Started with a mosey around the senior center to knock off some of the brisk temperature.

Circle up for some warm-up.  Started out warming up the shoulders in anticipation for the pain about to be administered.

Sir Fazio 15 count IC Sir Fazio 15 count IC reverse OH claps 15 count IC Good mornings 15 count IC Plank extensions until YHC got tired

Mosey to the first light pole to begin the Ode to Ollie light pole routine beat down.

The Thang Here we go with the thang. 7 diamond merkin per pole for 7 poles. Had some mumble chatter at the start but when we started into the 7x7 burpees the chatter became less other than the pax pushing each other to get through routine and take their mind off the because burpee pain.  Last set was 7x7 merkins.

As you notice there was a pattern.  Total for each exercise was 49; hence, I’m 1 year older but stronger.

Took a 10 count by Gomer and Jigglypuff to catch our breath and prepare us for the next thang. We took a short mosey to the infamous Bond Park Hill for some some 11s. At the bottom of the hill do 1 star jump and then run/jog/mosey up the hill for 10 prisoner squats (repeating until we did 10 star jumps).

10 counts by Disco and Callahan to again catch our breath. Lined it up for an Indian run back to the parking lot.

Circled up at the parking lot to pay homage to our favorite lady Mary by 10 around the horn.
