Do 1 More

WARMUP: lap around the parking lot, SSH, Moroccan Nightclubs, windmills

THE THANG: Do 1 More
This is a 12 round AMRAP 1 minute each with a 45 second break to do as many as you can. I told the pax to write down their number after each round. I did not tell them if a high number was good or bad or how it would affect the other pax good or bad so that they would push themselves. The rounds were:
Merkins
Squats
CDDs
Burpees
SSH
Bobby Hurleys
Plank jacks
Big boys
Shoulder Taps
Overhead Claps
Mtn Climbers
LBCs

Then we talked about how much we accomplished, but how much more was till to be done. But that you can do more than you think you can, so add 1 more to each rounds reps for round 2. i.e. 41 Merkins in round 1 meant 42 Merkins in round 2.

By the end, we had completed as a group (13 bootcampers) 9,155 reps in 45 minutes. Feel accomplished, you guys did a ton of work!

MARY: No Time

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel, Newsletter, Overnight silly-ness ruck event, Strawberry 5k.

COT: Marriages, health and healing, travel, reach out to someone you haven't heard from in a while and let them know you're thinking about them. It'll make their day even if they don't respond with more than thanks. Or you might talk to them for an hour. But reach out, you never know when someone needs it.
