After rescheduling this too many times due to conflicts, able to finally Q at this fine establishment. Special guest Partnerwork who’s kind of a big deal showed up. Gave the obligatory disclosure and we were off.
To get the blood flowing, began with a kettle bell mosey down to the lower entrance of the football field.
Warm up IN cadence:
- SSH
- IWs – little extra practice nice before to avoid repeating the epic failure from my Block Party Q
- Cherry Pickers
- Mtn. Climbers
- Low Country Crab – found this one in the Exicon
- Freddie Mercury
Quick recovery and Partnerwork opened the gates with the keys to the castle. Questions about a random tire placed by gate arose but was ignored.
The Thang
Line up at the goal line to explain the objective. Carry your kettlebell every 10 yards and execute number of corresponding reps to the end zone. Cyclops pointed out this is a reverse pyramid.
- 10 – Man Makers
- 20 – KB Swings
- 30 – Gobblet Squats
- 40 – Curls
- 50 – Tricep Extensions
- Repeat past the 50 to end zone
Checking time, needed to call a few audibles.
- Grabbed some wall and proceeded with dirty hookups in cadence x 30.
- Jack Webbs (1×4 to 5×20)
- Shoulder Taps x 30
Lined up on goal line for next field round.
Quarter Pounder
- 10 KB swings to start, run to following yard markers, execute corresponding reps and run back backwards to start w/ 10 KB swings before running to next marker.
- 25 yards – Merkins
- 50 yards – American Hammers
- 75 yards – Mountain Climbers
- 100 yards – Calf Raises
With time running out, decided to head back to COT but with a bonus. Inspired by Geronimo’s Q at Laces In, decided we should Indian run with our kettle bells with leader also carrying tire. It was met with enthusiasm.
Reached COT with a few minutes to spare, MARY Ab workouts in cadence until time.
Announcements: Thanksgiving convergence, Christmas party
Prayers/Praises: health, unspokens, upcoming travel
Thanks to Partnerwork for the field access , 3D for the opportunity, and the wisdom of other PAX for this junior Q.
