WARMUP: Mountain climbers, Imperial walkers, Arm circles. Brief mozy around the parking lot.
THE THANG: All Pax grab their kettlebell and form a line on the same pavement seam at COT. Left arm touching the person next to them’s shoulder for spacing. Everyone then leaves their kettlebell at their feet and makes the same line to the right of all kettlebells while assuming the plank position. Pax at the end passes the first bell to the person on their right who then passes it on to the next, etc. After passing the bell, each pax side-planks to their left to receive the next kettlebell. Rinse and repeat until all kettlebells have been passed through the line. Once completed, Pax on the right repeats and passes the bells to their left until all have been passed through the line.
Pax then moved to the base of the hill and faces the small roundabout equally-ish spaced around the circle, placing their kettlebell at their feet. Each Pax does 8 reps of one exercise using their own bell then side planks to their right to the next bell for the same exercise. Rinse and repeat until returning back to their own kettlebell. (56 total reps). Exercises were flutter with press, swings, upright rows, triceps. Mode of transportation alternated each lap between side planks and lunges.
Mozy to the bottom of the hill. There were five cones placed going up the hill with the final cone being at the top. Pax would run to the first cone and back to the previous where they grab their kettlebell and returned to the first cone. At each cone there is a single exercise written on it. Pax complete the exercise (20 reps) then rinse and repeat the process to get to the next cone and up the hill. Exercises were “from the ground up” and included kettlebell merkins, calf raises, squats, shoulder presses, and halos.
What goes up must come down so we repeated the process to get back to the start.
With a few minutes left, we returned to the circle for a lap of biceps curls and side planks before returning to COT.
