Caroling Carrying of the Bells

No rest for these 8 soon-to-be-weary gentlemen who showed up at Overdrive.

The Thang

Let’s roll out for a quick interstate phenomenon known as “The Hairband Mile”. Circle up, partner up and bring the bells… cause we are heading out!

COP (in a roundabout way)

With Shep’s guidance we made it into the rear courtyard for some people’s chair, railslide, handstand, and a warmup of side straddle hops and imperial walkers.

Continue the mosey to the elementary playground, stopping off for a quick plank while a pet rock was picked out.  Partners took Q called turns carrying the kb’s.

The deali-o

With your partner (and only one partner working at a time) complete:

100 Burpees
then
100 KB g2o (ground to overhead)
then
100 broad jumps

Partners may partition the reps as they like (with a max of 10 each turn), but the non-working partner must be in the rest position for the reps to count to the total.

Resting positions:

Burpees – KB overhead
KB g2o – hanging from the monkey bar
Broad jumps – plank on elbows

Mosey back the way we got there and circle up for a few crowd sourced plank variation core exercises.

Done and thanks Happy for taking us out in prayer.

After considering volunteering to carry around kegs of tar for the roofers YHC thought it best to stick to the original plan.  Solid work by all present.  I saw some modifications being done which is exactly what the pax should do!  The kettlebell handoffs during the mosey and the max of 10 reps per partner on their turn were meant to encourage good form and provide a mental milestone to work towards as we chipped away at the 100’s.  We ran short on time, so when the first team hit 100 on the g2o’s time was called and we moseyed back.  It was dark and I was focused on sucking in as much wind as I could get.  My memory of specifics is a bit foggy so please chime in if I overlooked anything.
