Today… I wanted to try something different. Mini station with burpees at some of them, plus for a few carrying a bucket with either sand or gravel(or a sandbag varied in weight) to each one then return. Upon the return there’s a list of 8 different exercises at 100 reps each(choose 1). 13(including 1 FNG) braved what may be one of the rate times that it was quiet.
Started with a WARMARAMMA: SSHs, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Arm Circles each direction, Cherry Pickers, Merkins and something new I don’t have a name for it I will call it the Alabama After Prom(an Alabama Prom Dates with a LBC)
The original set up: 8 stations the majority started with 5 burpees (various ones) then a 3 exercise routine, reverse then back thru one more time ending with the burpees back to the start to pick out the 100. Did we get thru all of them(NO), only 5 was completed. Here’s the overview:
Station 1: 5 burpees, 10 Alligator Merkins, 12 WW2, 15 squats(reverse it, then back thru once more) finishing with the 5 burpees then back to do 100 shoulder taps
Station 2: 5 Army Ranger burpees, 10 Lunges/side, 12 Diamond Merkins, 15 4 count mountain climbers (reverse it, back thru again finishing with the burpees then did 100 Carolina Dry Docks
Station 3: 5 Navy Seal Burpee, 10 Butterfly Sit-ups, 12 Dive Bombers, 15 Tuck Jumps(reverse it, back thru turn finishing with the 5 Navy Seals) back to do 100 LBCS
Station 4: 15 Scrunchy Frogs, 30 Jump Squats, 40 Tricep Dips(reverse it, started to hit station 5)
Station 5(final one): 5 8-count Burpees, 10 plank suicides, 15 wide arm merkins, 20 L/R Side Plank drops(reverse, back and finished it with 100 2 count toe taps and 100 2-count flutters)
The final bit was with a 70 pound Atlas Stone: 11 just only leg kick thrus then carry the stone down. When you carried it back up, that was your pass each of us took turns. With about 3 minutes left, to the flag for a quick boat hold and done
Numbers, Names, Announcements and prayer led by YHC to close it out.
Welcome Don(Dick Tracy) to the group. He saw us last week and joined in today. The carries especially the longer ones were no joke. This was the first time I brought this out, I have some tweaking to do but in the future will try it again I think we can finish it all. Recovery and see you next time
