Back Rotations aka “This Thingy Right Here”

The Thang

18 Holes of Pain
Burpees each hole = 1 x hole par (Par 4 = 4 burpees)
Chance to shave a stroke (burpee) each hole by answering trivia question correctly
Exercise reps = Hole par x 10
Run distance of yardage to next tee (1st two numbers only. 430 yards = 43 yards)
72 burpees total
720 exercise reps total
.43 miles of yardage covered

Timing worked out great. Had a chance to hit a few shots at the end to add a few more exercises. Great crowd and mumblechatter.

Spur – Man hunts best in a pack.

THE THANG:
Socratic – Do communities benefit when men combine?
Spur – Men recognize the Advantage of mutual defense.
Men recognize the benefit of community. A HIM locks his shield with other HIMs to protect the people behind the wall.
