Sweet and Spicy at The Fort

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Peach Stand started us off with the warmup of SSH, Imperial Walkers, and possibly a few others gone from memory.

THE THANG 1:
PeachStand instructed Pax to pick a rock from the piles behind the amphitheater (and to choose wisely).
The “thang” was a ladder to “9”, starting with 8 Mike Tysons right behind the amphitheater, and 1 bomb jack at the entrance of the parking lot (up the hill). The mode of transportation running (or walking briskly) with our coupon held straight over our heads. Harry Carry did more running than anyone (perhaps even more than the rest of us combined).

THE THANG 2:
YHC took over and educated the Pax on the rules of a Webb-o-rama. 4 cones set up along path in front of the amphitheater. On each cone were 2 exercises to be done in Jack Webb style (1:4 ratio)
Cone 1- 1 6-count Burpee : 4 SSH
– >> Bear crawl to next station
Cone 2 – 1 Big boy sit up : 4 American Hammers
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 3 – 1 Knee tar N’Diaye : 4 Squats
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 4 – Traditional Jack Webb –
– >> Run Around parking lot, up the hill to the entrance, then back to first station
Instead of doing all 10 reps at once, we broke it up into 3 rounds.
Round 1: 1-5
Round 2: 6-8
Round 3: 10 (skipped 9 since we ran out of time).

Great work done by all men. Thanks for the chance to lead, JWOW.

Not Many Fooled on April 1st.

Leave a comment

Run to opposite side parking lot of school for Dynamic Warmup:
– SSH x15
– IW (high) x15 => High Knee
– Seal Jacks x15
– Windmills x10 => Butt Kickers
– Merkins x10
– Dry Docks x10=> Shuffle L/R
– Low Slow Squat x20

The Thang:
Ran to the back of the school (near the bridge). Pax paired up and a foreman was selected to represent all pax. Each pair took turns working their way to a rep count (the pax not doing the exercise various stationary positions. Once all pairs done, a moving exercise (out-and-back) was done by everyone. Then, we started the next round. The details of each round are listed below.

The twist for April Fool’s day is that before the moving exercise, a true/false question was posed to the pax. If the foreman answered correctly, an “easy” out-and-back exercise was done. If incorrect, a difficult out-and-back exercise was drawn from the “bucket ‘o pain”.

PARTNER A – 20 MERKINS
PARTNER B – PLANK
FLAPJACK to reach 80

SET 2
PARTNER A – 20 SQUATS
PARTNER B – AL GORE
