Today we decided to choose our own adventure at Footloose. Because the men chose the harder thing, it evolved into Mini-Pond.
The Thang:
Very simple: You have two loop options and two exercise options. One loop is shorter (.5 miles) and one loop is longer (.6 miles). One exercise is less difficult and one is more. Choose your level on each loop and regroup for short sets in cadence. We did 5 laps, which means we got 2.5-3 miles in depending on your choices.
Lap options:
- Merkins/Diamonds – 10
- Squats/IW – 15
- Burpees/Flying Squirrel – 7
- BBS/LBC – 15
- Bomb jacks/Monkey Humpers – 10
After every lap we did a few things to regroup In Cadence where appropriate:
- Bear Crawl one of the 3 lanes in the circle (again, pax choice)
- Tappy Taps
- Imperial Walkers
- MNC
NMM:
I am not a professional. I don’t know how to Q a moderate workout and keep everyone aligned. Today was a good experiment, not because we somehow managed to keep everyone aligned across the “easier” and the “harder” aspects, but because the guys that showed up almost exclusively chose the harder loop and the harder exercise. I don’t know the reason (peer pressure?), but they all did it and I am fairly certain all of them are glad they did.
