Hut Hut Hike!

YHC got the idea a couple weeks ago to incorporate some football into the workout. Most workouts are not conducive to flying objects (too early, too dark out, too short). But early sunlight and 60 minute Saturday…this was the chance! Thanks to Commish for lending the balls/cones. Although I’m a lifelong Packer fan for some reason I literally had a dream last night that I met Charlie Joiner (Chargers WR of 70s/80s) weird.

12 Pax, 6 footballs. Rules throughout: if you drop it or someone causes you to fumble then you do 5 plank jacks. Any incomplete pass means 3 burpees for both intended receiver and QB.

Disclaimer given. Special mention of tackling waiver! (Loogie!). Comment to FNG of “it’s usually not this silly” (ah, just wait!)

Mosey to Blakeney playground.
-plank jacks.
-merkins
-Bulgarian Ball Busters
-arm circles (warm up those QB arms)

Mosey across lots with butt kicks, side shuffle both sides, backward, high knees.

Wall behind Old Navy:
– hop/climb wall, then back down 3 burpees (x10)

Mosey up road, stop for air squats. Mosey further stop for planks. Mosey to playground/field.

QB/Passing Lines (2 groups/lines). Each should QB their entire line at least once. Dropping/fumbling penalty applies.
-deep out routes.
-flag/post route.
-go/fade route (all you’ve got!)
(Far too much fun seemed to be had for this to actually be a workout right?!)

DB/LB coverage drills. Each must QB and DB/LB.
“Get depth, sink those hips, catch it, take it to the house!!!”

To playset:
-7 pull-ups, 10 jump squats (x3)
(Nice ups Flo-Jo!)

Partner up for mosey back, but must do so with passing ball “leap frog” like. Dropping/fumble rules apply, “pay up” burpee penalties at rock pile. Pick lifting rock:
-squats 9
-triceps 15
-triple Lindy 10

Mosey down hill- stop a couple times on way back for Peter Parker, Flutter, Heals, Plank, 6 inches, Al Gore, etc

Back to base:
-A little Mary
-20 Merkins (OYO) done!

Moleskin:
GREAT job by all. Seemed some extra pep in steps today. Funny what happens when we are able to run around with footballs – guys seem to revert back to 13 year old self (except FNG Flo-Jo, son of Lock Box, who is in fact currently his 13 year old self). High stepping, Loogie tackling Paper Jam (who was especially nimble today). Mighty Mite would be a great fullback. Chopper has TE written all over him (soft hands and probably the catch of the day), Fredo, Twinkle Toes and Lock Box ran hard and excellent routes, J Wow and Honey Badger gave all they’ve got and were excellent, Heartbreaker could be Christian McCaffrey.

YHC brought old football card tokens for each Pax to commemorate the day (Charlie Joiner went to Chopper- others got Lynn Dickey, Harry Carson, Mel Blount, Eric Dickerson, and random 80’s Packers). Thanks for playing along I hope it was a good workout and a fraction of the fun I had was had by all.

Next week V-Q for Chopper!!!! Heartbreaker has Bagpipe (Tues) Fredo has Maul (Wed). Thanks Loogie for takeout.

FNG doesn’t know that FloJo is actually a nickname for a Female Athlete, right?

We didn’t quite get to that disclaimer but his Dad was present so we went with it. YouTube clips will be a little surprising for him!
