When is the warmup over?

When is the warmup over?

8 men made it to South Charlotte Middle School for this week’s edition of Base Camp.  YHC was on Q and promised a low(ish) mileage beatdown.  YHC kept it simple but effective.  So after a brief disclaimer and setting up some tunes, here’s how it went.

Tha Thang:

Run around the parking lot, Circle up x25: SSH, IW, Merkins,

Hold plank for a 10 count, then High knees (in place) x 25, butt kickers (in place) x 25

Mt. Climbers, Peter Parkers and one more loop around the parking lot

5 SLOW burpees (pause at each place in the movement and make the movements slow)

Partner up find someone you know well:

P1 runs the loop, P2 does the exercise

— or —

P1 holds plank, P2 does exercise x 20

Exercises:

Reverse Lunges

High knees

Carolina Dry Docks

Squats

Shoulder Taps

Merkins

LBCs

SLOW Flutter Kicks

Butt Kickers

SLOW Burpees

Outsourced Mary and a plank for the last 20 seconds

Naked Moleskine:

YHC wanted to hit the football field for this workout but with all the rain we had last week, it was probably a muddy mess.  So YHC opted for the parking lot.  7 of us started in the lot and Floor-Slapper dropped in during our warmup.  Both he and Sardine proceeded to ask when the warmup would be over and the workout would begin.  This was while they were catching their breath from the “warmup”.

YHC offered a little choice for the pax, since I was told this was a moderate workout.  The optional plank was thrown in for anyone on injury who didn’t need to run as much.  There might have been a pax who took the option but most preferred to run.

Welcome to FNG Bunny Ranch (Goonie was stuck on it).  Hope to see him in the gloom again soon.
