Matt. 4:19 at the Ranch

Leave a comment

WARMUP: did a little broga in honor of <@UL1RR80MR>. Very much needed and appreciated.
THE THANG: went to the tables for a round of dips derkins and step ups. Got deterred by some cars coming outta the back of school so we pivoted. Went to the front to do loops with several stops for exercises. Ended up something like this. 4 exercises at each stop with 10, 10 ,15, 20 reps. Wam, merkins, mtn climbers, and shoulder taps. Run to nxt spot. Then squats, sumos, calve raises and monkey humpers. Mosey to next spot for big boys, weezy Jefferson’s, American hammers and flutters. Last round of SSH, jump squats, overhead claps and monkey humpers. Interspersed was my testimony to a relationship with Christ and Matt. 4:19 Come follow me and I’ll make you fishers of men.
MARY: had time for a little of this.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: litter pickup and other stuff.
COT: check

Pyramid of Pain

Leave a comment

Quick disclaimer
And warmup
5 windmills, 10 IW/10MNC

Mosey to behind school on bball courts where the pyramid of pain was set up

5 stations, 4 corners and 1 in middle
Partner up ( work is completed together)
Each of the corners had a cone with an exercise listed
LBCs, CDDs, Squats Monkey Humpers and then Hand release merkins in the middle
The corners increase by 10 each round but the HR merkins stay at 10- changed to this after realizing that having to do 4 sets per round, and increasing would be impossible. So at the corners 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 ( didn’t make it to round 5)
Mode of transport changed every round:
Bear crawls
Crawl bears
Partner carrys
Wheel barrows
Leap frogs (we didn’t make it to this round)
Two teams got through the full 4 rounds without bat flipping- lots of modifications happened so ppl took my disclaimer to heart ?
