Hot Fun In The Summer Time

"End of the spring and here she comes back
Hi Hi Hi Hi there
Them summer days, those summer days
That's when I had most of my fun, back
high high high high there
Them summer days, those summer days."
Sly Stone, Hot Fun In The Summer Time,

Sing it:

Gotta let that one roll . . .

Sunday
Dog walk.
Monday
7/4. To fair with Amy Sara, Brigid, pat and B. B gets a henna spider and web on his arm and makes a beeline for the rides. Ball, all joy.

Tuesday
In early and headstands, frog stands and bu. Pretty good.
Evening, bail to run to buy the bitch her nutritionally optimized made from never-frozen boar, heirloom pork, venison dog food; Regional Red from Orijen.  Ought to eat this shit for breakfast. She is worth every penny.
Meet ct and Matt and the black kettle bells look really cool scattered over the freshly cut green grass. Quick workout, nothing heavy.
It's so damn beautiful in Bay Area right now can hardly believe it.

Wednesday
Go in for headstands/bu, fuck this I want to move, so:
15/15 16kg seven rep pace, x 60. Sport bell handle good.

Late yoga. Really hard. Really good. Yah, let's hang out in high lunge and plank variations. Let's do that, just don't ask my big tight shoulders to cooperate on any binds. No ? Ok, now I suck.  You're right, it is absolutely perfect.  Roger, spot on.

Thursday
Yeah you might have sucked but felt better leaner and meaner Thursday am than in weeks.
Juggling three matters by 7:30 am, two of them new. Financial reports good for moi yesterday: keep it going. Push. Delegate.  Don't piss anyone off.
Bust ass and leave for Yoga. Its a sub, and had iron on the mind anyway. Something not body-ripping but just move.
10+10x 3 16kg swings
Double 20kg press, ten alternating to 5 doubles
10 24kg goblet squats
10 24kg crush curls
10 20kg figure 8 to hold, 10 24kg
3x, except 24kg on last set of presses. Uh huh, know better now, with right warm up could have done all 3 with 24.
5-1 24kg single arm swings, to tgu x 5, last two set 28 on the tgu.
Probably the best single arm sets ever, thanks to ct's bone rhythm instruction a week earlier when it felt weird just to stand up. That plus Keira Newton videos, so clear no need to listen, just watch. Ferry back to cook for B, juggling two different matters, yes. Keep going. Pradeep tomorrow. Om Om Om.

Friday
Slow last week was not the harbinger of doom I have been firmly convinced is around the corner for the last 22 years. Good week for new stuff and end the week with more new good work in the door.
Run out as threatened at 4:15 for Pradeep. Great class with uber-core work in locust variations. He is so good at bringing the hammer down and backing off ever so slow. Hot fun.

Saturday
Six hours of housework. Remove old dishwasher. Shampoo carpets. Finally rejoining the living.  Rose bored:



 Sunday
With B in for yoga. We get spots in back corner; sub is JD who I like quite a bit. B puts in good practice flirting with two young women in front of us. Cute guy.

Monday
Long day with longer and calls as it progressed. Sucking the joy right outta me was last one where client was inebriated, finally dump the call on the gym steps.  Feeling bronchial again and not great. But really want to push heavy shit overhead:
single arm 16 10+10 x 3
Double long cycle c & p
20x5
24x4
28x3
Single 32x2
Front squats double 20x10
Renegade rows
20 24kg
5+5 slsx2, second with 16kg bu
x3
5-1 24kg single arm swings to 28kg tgu
x5
Pretty good workout.

Tuesday
Very long day, run into jwb in courtyard and gab about kbells.  He looks like a mountain.
Run off for seven hours of grind.  Up to ct, newly re-certed RKC II,  it's a brief warm up then:
5 double 20kg jerks, 3+3 20kg windmills, 10 double 20kg swings x 5, with very little rest.
She mixed that up a bit, and it was all fun until the double swings.  No voodoo which does at least give a breather.  30 minutes and after the day before, fried.

Set lists starting to go up on HSB.  OCMS this year.  Hot Fun:

Loving all of it.
