The gloom rain broke for 20 PAX as they explored some not-typically-traveled territory for a dose of Slowburn. As promised, not too much running was required for this "moderate intensity" workout. Rather, focus was set on slowing the exercise speed way down to give muscles a chance to dwell on the burn.

Set 3

Set 4 - Progressive Jack Web (1 to 5)

Found a wall for the People's Chair (the Sherwin William's building worked just fine!).

10 Bomb Jacks (OYO) to make up for at least 3-4 TWSS comments during the workout.

5 slow Bomb Sacks a fantastic idea from CSPAN where PAX held the crouching part of a bomb jack until the Q calls "up" for the Jack, then returns to crouch position.

Run back to Chic-fil-a for COT

I am truly humbled with every opportunity lead the fine men of The Fort in a workout. Many thanks to everyone that posted this morning. I look forward to the next time.
