Iron Mike made me late

Leave a comment

WARMUP: When you stay up late to watch Tyson, you sleep too long and then the site Q takes over. When you hear others stayed up to watch as well, you don’t have any excuses.

Thanks to JCruise for stepping in to get things started!

Disclaimer was given and we did a few warmup exercises before we got going: windmills, low slow squat, merkins, and cherry pickers.
THE THANG: Pearls on a string with a tour of campus. Started with 10 and then added 20 to the 10, and so on at each stop.
1. 10 bomb jacks
2. 20 Diamond merkins
3. 30 hammers (single count)
4. 40 squats
5. 50 flutters (double count)
6. 60 calf raises (3 different ways)

The tour took us to one entrance, then down a trail path, couple light poles, and all over. It was great and fun conversation.
MARY: quick round the horn call out of exercises
ANNOUNCEMENTS: got it
COT: CSPAN style!

Brick laying at the yard

Leave a comment

WARMUP: ssh, imp walkers, windmills, Peter Parker’s and shoulder taps, all in cadence
THE THANG: 2 workout stations were set up at opposite ends of the school parking lot. Each had a list of exercises/rep counts eg 40 flutters. In the middle was a basketball goal and the middle school walking track. Pax would proceed to one station and do the first listed exercise. They would return to the middle and shoot a shot. If it goes in, just run a lap and proceed to station 2 to do the first exercise there. If the shot misses, 10 derkins, then run a lap and proceed to station two. Repeat this until time.

We quit a little early and played a game of knockout – we’re bad at basketball
MARY: we went around the circle, but there were 2 set of burpees called, so Mary got a little out of control, and then the dog licked someone’s butt

We checked all the boxes today
ANNOUNCEMENTS: y
COT: y
