Pyramid of Pain

Leave a comment

Quick disclaimer
And warmup
5 windmills, 10 IW/10MNC

Mosey to behind school on bball courts where the pyramid of pain was set up

5 stations, 4 corners and 1 in middle
Partner up ( work is completed together)
Each of the corners had a cone with an exercise listed
LBCs, CDDs, Squats Monkey Humpers and then Hand release merkins in the middle
The corners increase by 10 each round but the HR merkins stay at 10- changed to this after realizing that having to do 4 sets per round, and increasing would be impossible. So at the corners 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 ( didn’t make it to round 5)
Mode of transport changed every round:
Bear crawls
Crawl bears
Partner carrys
Wheel barrows
Leap frogs (we didn’t make it to this round)
Two teams got through the full 4 rounds without bat flipping- lots of modifications happened so ppl took my disclaimer to heart ?
