Body Pump, Montevideo-style

Zac and I have joined the throngs of exercise-happy sun-worshippers here in Montevideo. This photo might not make it look like there are throngs, but believe me, that sidewalk fills up. 

We found a small park down the road with plenty of props for our makeshift workouts; on weekday mornings we share it with the moms and the babies. Sometimes, there's a group of men drinking mate and playing soccer at the field next door, but when they're gone, the goalpost makes an excellent pull-up bar.

It's fun, but our sorry asses aren't used to doing much these days so we are sore. Really, really sore. Good thing the only muscles we need the rest of the day are the ones used for beach-sittin' and beer-openin'!
