Preamble:

What is Muscle Beach? Is it a place? Is it limited to a single place with salt-rusted iron, anabolic steroids, spray tans, and Hydroxycut on Venice Beach? Or is it a mindset? Can we clang and bang on the brown shores of the Chattahoochee? Can we hop on the LGN Plan in East Roswell Park, 300 miles from the closest ocean? Can we take a break from running-based workouts in the summer? The answer, in these polarizing times, is a resounding "YES!"  

Warm-O-Rama:

Don your tanks Run to the cheese grater to do some dynamic stretching.

The Thang:

Mosey to the beach for a 45s on, 15s off circuit. Changing stations each time:
  • Beach chair (rest, chill, you're at the beach)
  • Pull-ups
  • Elevated split squat - dumbbell, switch legs every 5 reps
  • Merkins
  • Deadlift - bar
  • Hip to halos - light cinder
  • KB Swings (kb) - advanced: SA. expert: SA clusters
  • Curls - heavy cinder
  • Weighted JR or Jump Squat
More people showed than anticipated, so many groups had 3 people in them. Some improvisation happened to fill out exercises with limited equipment.

COT:

We named Otter. Otter is definitely not spelled "Otto," though Otto would still be a good name. Otter is definitely spelled using more than 2 letters. Feathers challenge: - 50 burpees a day - No added sugar - T1D - Fundraiser Speedo’s dad Camp lighthouse Vertigo’s daughter

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Get swole, my dear brothers. Hopefully, this weekend at the pool, after you take off your shirt, your wife slides her sunglasses down her nose a little bit and says, "Wow, who's that guy?" If that happens...you're welcome. Scratch-Off Out.
