I found myself wondering after 125-150 SSHs if the PAX would have posted if they knew we’d be doing SSHs all morning long. Sometimes a pre-blast could be detrimental and in this case, Free Bird would’ve been solo had he “pre-blasted.” So, footloose and blister-free, 13 PAX found themselves at Alcatraz for a 6:30 woopin’.

The Thang:
Free Bird on the Q:
2 laps around the fields
SSH (20-30) between each of the following exercises:
IW x 20
Merkins x 15
Windmill x 25
Jumping Lunges x 22
CDD x 20
Crab Grab (think of a backup dancer break-dancing) x 20
Sumo Squat x 25
LBC Toe Touches x 20
Merkins x 15
Mtn Climbers x 20
Somewhere between 250-350 SSH in total. So much for footloose and blister free.

Hand off to Maximus:
Mosey to the playground & partner up
Partner 1: 10 pull ups/20 Dips Partner 2: Mak Tar Jah til Partner 1 finishes
FLAPJACK
Partner 1: 10 pull ups/20 Dips Partner 2: Decline plank til Partner 1 finishes
FLAPJACK

Mosey back to the field for 4 corners of Merkins
Run to each of the 4 corners of the field for 7 Wide-arm, 7 Regular, 7 Diamond
Mtn Climbers
Gator Merkins
Jack Webb 1:4 Ratio for a total of 7:28
Heel Touches
Low Russian Twist
Seal Team sit ups
Low Slow Flutter

As hard as Maximus tried to push the PAX, let’s not kid ourselves. The mass quantity of SSH had our feet smokin’ so nothing else really matter. Thanks to Free Bird, I’ll spend my time running the BRR on my heels. Yet, I’d sign up to do it all over again.
