Last week on Monday I caught up with Cornhole at the end of the workout and asked him for this Q since it feel on my birthday. He said he would make it happen! So sunday night watching football I was trying to find something unique and themed for a birthday beatdown. I’m not the best at making things themed…but I like making them hard, so here’s what we got.

I love these not so warm mornings we are finally getting. It was somewhere around 45 degrees this morning. A few guys had like three layers on! It shouldn’t take long to warm up this AM…

Brief disclaimer, no FNGs so with 10 PAX we start our mosey to the Home Depot parking lot. On the way dynamic warmup with

High Knees – Butt Kickers – Karaoke with a 180 – toy soldiers

Circle up for COP

10 Windmills – 30 Moroccan Night Clubs – 25 SSHs – 20 IWs – 20 CDDs – 10 Peter Parkers – 10 Parker Peters – 20 Plank Jacks

So this was the best I could do with a theme… called it the 38 special.

We hit the parking lot, two cones set up on two islands about 40 yards apart.
Sprint the 40 yards – do 38 reps of the exercise – sprint to the other cone – do 38 reps of the exercise
1. Wide Arm Merkins
2. Flutter Kicks
3. CDDs
4. Freddy Mercury’s
5. Monkey Humpers
6. SSHs

Butchered a few words about the word of the month – Mercy. I’ll do better next time.

Mosey if front of Books-A-Million

We would try a “Lazy Dora” – love the F3 site! Lazy Dora’s just skip the running partners…instead

Partner Up
100 Merkins in reps of 10 while partner Planks then flip
200 LBCs reps of 20 partner 6 inches
300 Squats reps of 25 partner holds low squat

Mosey back to parking by cars…one last fun item!

I pulled the speaker out of my car and found one song – Thunderstruck! (Thanks Mainframe and Bing for bringing this home from the beach this summer)

Continuous SSHs until “Thunder” or “Thunderstruck” then flying squirrel. This goes on for like 6 minutes!

Afterwards like 2 minutes on the clock, we did a little stretching to finish it out.
