Bushwood Casino – Suplex dealing…

WARMUP: MOTIVATOR, Windmills, Imp.-Walkers

THE THANG:
:black_joker: Texas Hold ’Em Beatdown Rules
Setup:
– Regular deck of cards. Assign each suit to an exercise:
– Hearts → Merkins Diamonds → Squats
– Clubs → Big Boy Sit-Ups Spades → Jump Squats
– Number = reps (face cards = 10, Ace = 11, Joker = Q’s Choice)
– Change Exercises for Each Round…
– All Pax do exercises for Flop/Turn/River. Folding = 5-10 of “ante-exercise”. Betting (w/ IOU of ante-exercise reps) proceeds as with regular Texas Hold ’em. Upon the showdown (post-River card), everyone “Pays up”. Winner calls out easier/alt. exercise for himself & the pax that pay up w/ time to spare (until the 6 is up)

Round 2 & 3 (same as above… new exercises)
Hearts:CDD / Shakira
Diamonds:Lunges / Sumo Squats
Clubs:V-ups / Dying Cockroaches
Spades:Flying Squirrels / Kosak Squats
Ante/IOU: Hand-Release Burpees / Lt. Dan/Apollo Ono complex

Mosey around Lot …. Then 4-Square.
when “out”… take a short lap & do merkins until back in.

Quotes shared w/ Pax throughout the workout (Common theme of paying your debts):
Proverbs 10:9 (NIV)
“Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out.”

Marcus Aurelius – Meditations 6.30
“If it is not right, do not do it, if it is not true, do not say it.”
(And if you said it—do it.)

Seneca – On Anger, Book III
“A promise is a debt.”

John Wooden (legendary coach):
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are.”

George Washington:
“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for ’tis better to be alone than in bad company.”
(Good company pays their IOUs.)

F3 Lexicon – Freed to Lead
“Your word is your bond. If you said it, own it. If you owe it, do it.

MARY: Pax choice – included Am.Hammers, leg raises, LBC’s among others

Farmer Carry to top of hill and back

After challenge was complete, I asked teams for time. 15-20 minutes was average.

I gave the team a “do over” and the challenge was to be repeated but faster.

COT: You were given a second chance. How will you use? What will you do better? Get a faster time. what bad event happened to you: layoff, parenting, divorce. What will you do differently next time?

Improvements: I would shorten the bear crawl distance and bell carry distance.
