Tour of the Yard

If you saw the video, Bowzer is your guy if you need a face/voice for video intro.

After committing to a pre-run, I was then a fill in Q, my tail was dragging.

Dynamic warm up, back and forth across the lot, a couple exercises, the a motion across, couple more, motion across, you get it.

Finish with the bear crawl challenge. Often times when working out with PAX at my old and broken fitness level, a bear crawl means you take a half dozen “strides” and stand up, grunting and groaning and swinging your arms around like you are loosening up. Over the last couple Q’s I called this out and gave the PAX a distance to make. If you call it out, they (I) will do it.

over to the light poles for one round of suicides

back to the school wall where we did wall sits and tons of BURPEES

on our way to the hill in front of the school we weaved in and out of the perma-cones

At the hill we did some exercises at the top and some at the bottom, super high counts, 5-10-15, than 10-20-30 at the bottom

then over to the bench, where we did the typical dips and incline merkins

Wrapping the morning up, all PAX crushed a 10 count of BALLS TO THE WALLS (my ode to Accept)

Exercises throughout were typical old guy stuff, windmills, BURPEES, shoulder taps, BURPEES, mountain climbers, monkey humpers, squat jumps, BURPEES, multiple rounds of Makhtar N’Diayes, BURPEES, stuff like that

Looks like we made it,
