Leave a comment

WARMUP: Yea, did that. Mostly in cadence.
SSH
IW
HW
Soulder Taps
Merkins
Peter Parker

THE THANG:
A little smorgasbord. Initial bulk was laps around the front of the middle school with:
5 buprees at each speed bump
next lap
5 burpees and 10 bombjacks
Then we went backwards so the speed bumps were closer and reverse bear crawled up the hill from the lowest point.

Stopped for some People’s Chair
While we were at the wall we did BTTW with upside down shoulder taps and merkins in cadence

Went to the teacher parking lot in the back and did a long bear crawl. Then some Lt. Dan’s

Hit the elementary playground for some pull-ups and burpees. Tried to work in a partner balance and one handed hanging on the bar, but
it was a smashing failure. So, we ran back towards COT and stopped for Bulgarian Split Squats along the way.

MARY: Yea, we did this leg raise thing YHC saw on Instagram one time.

Moleskine:
Lots of huffing and puffing in the gloom this morning mostly involving YHC’s choices best described as those done in a prison cell – and one Jane Fonda jazzercise sans knee-high Reebok socks.
A few notables:
Dark Helmet loves burpees – please be sure to include them in any AO’s where he HC’s.
Esso and Maximus set the tone in weight vests, floral and all.
Punch List crushed crushed the AMRAPs like, well, a punch list.
T-claps to Man Down for posting despite his 3am college bedtime.
Peabody and JWow were silent but deadly when chiming in on the prison cell burpees and bear crawls.
Soup to Nuts won best hair for the gloom, despite a contended effort by YHC and Dark Helmet.
Always a pleasure – Solo

Pre-Convergence Convergence

Leave a comment

There were Ruckers and runners.

Barry Manilow led the runners for 5+ miles around The Fort.

The bootcampers were led first by Maximus with a SSH x Merkin combo x2 to warm up.
After a quick warm up, the weinke was
10 merkins, 10 mountain climbers (double count) at each of the 9 swings around the park. When done and waiting on the 6 to fill in, hold an Al Gore. To wrap up, starting at the bottom of the grassy hill from the parking lot, flutter kicks, then burpees at the top of the hill.

Cake Boss took second shift with playtime at the playground.
Partnering up, one partner does squats, while the other runs around the playground. Then flapjack. Next was pull ups/merkins following the same format. To wrap up, keeping the same partner, one bear crawled across the field and run back, while the other did flutters. Flap jack until 3 rounds were done.

Fogerty took us home with some 11’s and hill repeats.
At the bottom of the hill with the statue, started with 10 merkins and bombjacks. Half way up the hill, 5 burpees, then 1 squat and big boy sit-up. No burpee on the way back down the hill. Repeat until 11’s are done cutting out the burpees when you hit 5 & 6.

This was a fun 60 min bootcamp.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Clave Boss & convergence in 12/23. Happy Birthday Walker. Tallawah is officially closed for good.

Frosty’s Revenge: The Icebreaker Workout

Leave a comment

BEFORE HAND: I ran out of the house to find my windshield completely frozen. I mean should I have expected when it’s 27° out. I tried to knock the ice off but with that I only made it to the stop sign at the end of Rd. As I started sweating bullets thinking I was going to be late just get my windshield clear so I can view the road. I made it with time to spare.

I proceeded to get out of the vehicle trying to get used to the bitter cold. Upon circling up we got a good amount of Pax which always ends up making for a great time.

WARMUP: 10 windmills
10 SSH
10 imperial walkers

Mosey over to the milestone.
Asked the Pax to think about what they are most grateful for this time of year and also what they are struggling with.

10 Merkins IC

THE THANG:
I had two present boxes with several exercises and reps listed inside. The main box had exercises that would be done in the parking lot near spratt St. Where the playground is. The lower box had exercises with reps Had exercises with reps for us to be performed at the milestone near white St. and Main St. I had Pax pull from each one of the gifts to determine the exercise that would be performed.
