With Not more the 15 seconds to Spare

Still reeling from how Cubbie measures shapes and distance, I took the reins to the Stockcade for the first time. These southern PAX also were reminded of the great term Rotary!(vs traffic circle)

Disclaimer was given no FNGs present

Quick mosey across the parking lot.

Warm up:
-15 SSH
—15 windmills
—15 Cherry Pickers

Mosey to Church Lot

Doings double 11’s
Church lot: Merkins and plank jacks
Rotary: Jump Squats and Burpees

With 180 seconds to spare we headed back to COT where we met up with Chuppacabra.

Prayers for marriageS, those in hospice, health of the kids.

Thankful for the opportunity to lead a great group of PAX

Roller Coaster

WARMUP:
SSH, Cherry Picker, IW
THE THANG:
The Roller Coaster: modified suicide: baseline and 5 stations up the hill. Each station has a number of increase repetitions: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 which PAX need to accomplish. At the same time there is a 5 min timer running. When timer hits, PAX stop where they are and have a “break” of 1 min where they need to complete at least 10x Burpees. After the 1 min break has elapsed, PAX continue with the suicides. After reaching the last cone (50x reps), PAX start over with a new exercise. There were 4 exercises in total: 1. Low Squats 2. MC (count 1:1) 3. Plank Jacks 4. LBC.
After Roller Coaster was done, mosey over to playground for a Jack Webb: start with 1x Merkin & 4x overhead claps all the way up to 10x Merkin and 40x OH claps. Mosey to COT
