Xmas Eve below Zero

Some PAX ran the Clave Boss and then rolled out. Other PAX rolled in for only the workout. Some PAX did both.

Split quickly into 3 groups. Rebound, Sprocket, and Mark Twain each took a group through a warmup and then visited 3 stations. Double D, 38 Special, and Band Camp lead the PAX at each stations. It was too cold (11 degrees Fahrenheit with some biting wind) to vote on which station was the Ghost of Christmases Past, Present and Future (see we did work in a little Xmas theme)

38’s portion:

The Roshamburpee-fest
Demonstrated a roshamburpee (plank position, 1, 2, 3 shoot).
Assigned one PAX to the end of each of the concrete paths. Everyone will run up the concrete paths in succession (or do whatever) and challenge the guy stuck at the end with a roshamburpee.
Winner gets up and runs up to the next level to challenge the next PAX. Loser stays put and keeps plank (or just tries to keep warm). At the five minute mark called “Sudden Death!”. Everyone tries to do laps but they always challenge anyone they run by (passing challenges in progress) and basically it looks like a bunch of pool balls knocking into each other the whole way. A lot of burpees. A lot of laughs. A lot of running. A lot of fun

Double D’s portion:

Started with 10 burpees OYO.
Group then broke up into 3-5 pax.
1 pax runs to block does 1st exercise in red while others in group do exercise in green.
Cycle all pax in group through, then move to second set of exercises.

Exercises:
RED:
1.Blockees
2.Swings
3.Curls
4.OH Press
5.Rows
GREEN:
1.Squat
2.Clave Raise
3.Sumo Squat
4.Monkey Humpers
5.Lunges

We planked for 6 and a short msg. Then group moved on.

Band Camp’s Portion:
Buy in with 20 Bulgarian Split Squats each leg
Ran a version of Red Barchetta-style workout
Run down – exercises
Mosey back – 5 burpees in cadence
50 in cadence Mountain Climbers (cold hands)
49 in cadence Flutters
48 in cadence Squats
47 in cadence Merkins

COT – and to all a good night!

we didn’t shoot our eye out but we did break it

WARMUP: disclaimer was disclaimed on the move bc it’s 16F. Mosey along the trail until we hit a giant tree in the way that’s been since we started but we never had enough guys to move it until now. For the record Flounder said we couldn’t move it. Oh ye of little faith😇. Every workout should start with a team log movement.
THE THANG: at “The Office” work was done.
5 weighted pull-ups, 10 weighted merkins, 20 squats. Then
10 ruck burpees minus the number of bb’s that a PAX was able to successfully shoot within a target on the target block ( styrofoam packing surrounding my solo stove that I got for Christmas yesterday). @Sprocket found the mark 7 / 10 so everyone did 3 ruck burpees. Mosey for quarter mile. Then dips, derkins, and step ups and 7 ruck burpees bc buttterFat discovered that the 19$ toy pistol wasn’t cold tested. Hopefully Black Bart never learns of my weakness. Mosey another quarter mile & more exercises and burpees until we went on a trail building log lining party on a fresh patch of trail for a few minutes. Oh and at some point we crossed a creek via an ice covered log.
MARY: Toy soldiers & imperial walker’s
ANNOUNCEMENTS: do hard things and quit being soft.
