It was a balmy 50 degrees – perfect weather. I guess I didn’t realize getting the blocks meant we all were going to have wet feet, oh well.
Warmup
Mosey around the building and stop for merkins along the way (10, 15, 20)
Circle up for a brief warmup IC:
SSH @ 20
SSS @ 20
Peter Parker Merkins @ 20
Break into three lines to do something called ‘Plank Box Jumpers’ never heard of it? its because I made up the name. It worked so-so, therefore we moved into a Indian Run Race. That worked OK, it was more of jail break for two laps. Whatever it got our hearts going.The bottom two teams had to do 20 burpees each – pretty much everyone did 20 burpees
Now back to the classics
Break into teams of 2 – partner 1 go to get the blocks, partner 2 exercises were led by OT until we made it back
Now partner 1 runs while partner 2 did the following exercises
1. overhead presses
2. curls
3. Tricep extensions
–Break for 20 Crunchy frogs
4. Wide Merkins
5. Diamond Merkins
6. Decline Merkins
7. Overhead presses
One group returned the blocks while Uncle Leo kicked off the series below
1. Flutter
2. Roaslita
3. Protractor
It was a great showing – no BRR participants but that was to be expected
Thanks to Squid to taking us out and to Uncle Leo and O’Tannenbaum for keeping the troops moving while we got the blocks.
