A slightly variable number of PAX showed up for a beat down today at Gridiron. As the COP started, 2 people from a nearby workout showed up and I thought “2 FNGs, how awesome” and then once we got out of COP they left to go to their normal workout. Perhaps it was the scorpion kicks, note to self. So we went from 15 to 13 to 14 with the 7:59 A.M. appearance of Seymour. I wiped a little sweat on him so he could get credit (probably not good COVID protocol – sorry).
The exercises went like this:
COP: DQs, CPs, Merkins, Freddie Mercuries, Scorpion kicks, ACs
Exercises:
Elevens with Carolina Dry docks and Lt. Dans
Roll of the dice: Based on the roll of two die, we get the following 4 corners: 1. The Exercise (5 or 10 first corner, 10 or 15 2nd corner, 15 or 20 – 3rd corner and 20 or 25 – last corner) and 2. how far we go for four corners.
Dice 1: 1 – Burpees, 2 – HRMs, 3 – WWIIs, 4 – 2 count flutters, 5 – SSHs, 6 – Jump squats
Dice 2 – 1 or 2 – white deer – 10 yards to each corner, 3 or 4 – Pinto – half way down the field, 5 or 6 – Blue Moon – all the way down the field.
After some pitfalls in rolling (when I rolled the dice kept stopping on the grass between two rolls) we had a system in place and completed all 6 four corners exercises. The burpees and HRMs were brutal; hence the hate from Attila.
Mosey to home base – Triple check with donkey kicks, LBCs and run around the parking lot. Close with DQs.
Announcements: Field Day 9/18, Sit and Sip – 9/25, Iron Pax challenge at Heartbreak and somewhere else (getting old can su$k). Prayers are with Gypsy, Bodos and everyone else recovering from COVID and with those who are in Afghanistan. It was a pleasure to distribute a beatdown today.
