Games of Chance

0

Hitchhiker pointed out the YHC only Q’s with games of chance. YHC likes games of chance because if it sucks, then YHC can just blame it on luck. The weather people said hot and muggy but it was sunny and 70 and with no humidity. A mighty four were present which made YHC happy because that meant YHC didn’t have to modify a carefully planned partner workout game of chance! This is how it went down.

Warmup/CoP

In an effort to become more limber and due to the groans that were getting louder as 0530 rolled closer, YHC decided on some light stretching to start things off. Touching toes, Donny Q’s, reaching for the sky, and a few others. Then to get the heartrate up and running YHC led everyone in some side straddle hops.

The Workout

The four warriors proceeded down around pump house park on a Native American merkin run. First person leads the single file line, and the last person drops and does 3x merkins, then that person catches up to the group, taps the last person in line and runs to the front, the tapped person drops and does 3 merkins. Repeat-o for approx. 1 mile.

Once at the top of the pump house park hill, 20 OYO WW2’s to even out the ab muscles. Then mosey on over to the rusty cage for prep work for the next WDOG Murph (Which BTW will be hosted by YHC at on July 21st – warning shot everyone, you can skip it if you want or you can come and play).

Before getting to the rusty cage the warriors picked up coupons, dropped the coupons at the fire hydrant, then moseyed to the rusty cage. Then, 1 pullup, then run to the coupon and 1 overhead press, then run back to rusty cage and 2 pullups, and so on and so forth on up to 5 merkins, then back down to 1. With MURPH training complete, on to the next game.

YHC lead the warriors to the sunken field, partner up and each partner stands on the opposite end of the field. Then the partners run to the middle of the field (for those keeping track we did this width wise and not length wise), at the middle of the field partners did rock paper scissors, loser does 5 burpees, winner does plank and wait. Then run back to the end of the field and back to the middle again for next round of rock paper scissors, rinse and repeat 10 times. Some were lucky and others were un-lucky.

Mosey on back to the flag with a short stop to do some slow merkins and leg raises. Then mosey continues back to the flag for some stretching, which included the have a nice day stretch which is a favorite of YHC.
