Transparent Thought Life

Leave a comment

WARMUP: 50xSSHIC followed by a short mosey to our first pain station.

THE THANG:
At the end of the warm-up mosey we found ourselves at the entrance to the loop at the front of the school.
Played Catch Me If You Can with the finish line being opening to the road that leads to the back of the school
Partner#1 Bear Crawled while Partner#2 performed 5 burpees and then moseyed to catch Partner#1. Continue to flapjack until you reach the finish line.

Nex, moseyed to the back of the school to use the benches and stairs. Reverse 1/2 Jack Webb: Started with 10 step-ups each leg and then went into 40 squats. We stopped after completing the 5 & 20 mark.

Next, moseyed to the playground for a Mini No-Run Dora.
Partner#1 moved into a straight arm plank position with feet in a swing – performed one knee tuck followed by a Merkin – that equals 1 rep – Partners need to complete accumulative rep count of 100. While Partner #1 performs the exercise, Partner #2 completes 10 pullups, returns to Partner #1 and flapjack until accumulative rep count is complete.

Finally, moseyed to COT from some AB work.
30 sec. of scissor kicks right into 30 sec of LBCs

Straight Arm Plank Position – held for 2min.15sec. – removed hands and feet from base in a rotating fashion, 1 at a time for 15 sec. and then removed 2 posts for 15 sec a pop.

30 sec. of flutter kicks right into 30 sec of LBCs

Farmers bring in the Thanksgiving holiday

Leave a comment

WARMUP: motivators from 5
THE THANG: 2 minute farmer carry followed by 1 minute workouts. We mixed in multiple rounds of running to the pull up bars and laps around the track to honor Splinter who is DR.
MARY: mixed in throughout the workout as multiple PAX prescribed more pain into the mix.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter. Lots of upcoming events.
COT: Thanksgiving takes a lot of work. Be thankful for those that are in your life and that you don’t even know who have helped get food on your Thanksgiving table. It’s easy to complain about circumstances in your life, but practicing gratitude helps keep complaining away.
