YHC was looking for some workout ideas and came across this gem the Red Barchetta and as a Rush fan and drummer had to use this routine today, in fact we did a cool down version too! For the younger men, this is perhaps one of the best Rush songs on the album Moving Pictures and true to the Lyrics tell an awesome story. So here is how it went down:
Mosey to the front yard of Atlee HS circled up for the introductions and started with 20 SSH, 10 slow DQ’s, 10 small arm circles 5 big, reverso and thank you Emoji for helping on this, 20 Freddie Mercuries, 10 Scorpions and 15 4 count Merkins (30 at warm up)
The THANG
The Red Barchetta – YHC had the PAX take 3 lanterns and set them up at the 25 yard, 50 yard and 100 yard marks and return to the starting line. We ran to the 100 yard mark and did 100 SSH, returned to starting line and held plank for the six, ran to the 75 yard line and did 75 mountain climbers, returned to the starting line and planked for the six, ran to the 50 yard line and did 50 LBC’s returned to the starting line and planked for the six. Ran 25 Yard and did 25 merkins, ran 10 start planked ran to 10 yard line 10 merkins and returned to start. (Total Merkins 35)
We then moseyed over to the side walk for super 21’s where we did one merkin, one LBC, two merkins , Two LBC’s on up to 10 merkins and 10 LBC’s. (This totaled 55 Merkins.)
We then moseyed to bus loop and back to starting line of Red Barchetta and divided into 2 four man groups, 2 men from each group ran to the opposite 100 yard line and back while the other two performed partner leg tosses, runners ran back again to 100 yard mark and back as the other partners switched PLT’s for the second run. Then runners did PLT’s while their two team mates did the running for two trips. We did this 3 times for a triple check.
We moseyed to the side walk for another round of super 21’s 1 to 10 LBC’s and Merkins. ( total 55 Merkins.)
We moseyed to Starting line for a cool down and ran to 100 yard line 25 SSH and returned, ran to 75 yard line for 50 mountain climbers and returned, 25 yard line for 20 merkins and returned, 10 yard line 10 merkins (total 30 merkins).
We policed up the lights by running to first light (25 yard line and did 25 overhead claps.
50 yard line and 20 LBCs
75 yard line and 25 squats
Ran back to flag for MARY and COT We cranked out 205 Merkins!
