You’ve heard of 8 minute abs right? John Deere had a new idea that is going to blow that out of the water.
The Thang:
Mosey around track (1/4 mile); heels to butt, high knees; karaoke
Various reps with 5 burpees in between:
Line up on the goal line for 11s
Crabwalk / Bearcrawls
Hold plank for 8 minutes…no make that 2 minutes; 5 burpees
Tabata: 40 seconds of plankjacks; 20 seconds rest: 4 minutes
50 LBCs
Naked Moleskin:
DDs was supposed to be our QIC today but had to make other arrangements when his M had to go out of town. John Deere gratefully accepted the honors and led 7 other men into the gloom on a fine Wednesday morning.
JD had some nice tricks in store for us, including a burpee laden COP, and a new twist on 11s that YHC had not done before. I’m also quickly finding out that every workout at the Charge must include a healthy dose of crab walks and bear crawls. Well, at least the crab walks were of the normal variety this morning and not the crab wheel barrows that DDs unleashed the week before. No matter…YHC doesn’t do crab walks…#refusenik.
And then we arrived at the pivotal moment of the workoug. JD thought he had a new way to under cut the 8 Minute Abs workout video…The 8 Minute Plank! Brilliant!! This has to go viral… an even BETTER Ab workout…so simple…so powerful…so…RIDICULOUSLY HARD!!! At the two minute mark the audible was called and we regressed to burpees. JD…this product is not ready for the mass market yet…needs a little more work. #lookedgoodonpaper
Overall a great workout by JD this morning. Thanks for stepping in for DDs this morning…AND bringing the tunes! For those of you that have been racking your brains so you could search the playlist on iTunes, here you go..
Annoucements:
Bring your friends next week…especially those that haven’t yet gotten a taste of The Charge! YHC will donate a pair of used men’s workout shoes for each site FNG.
