PAX: Burlap, Zima, Balco, Red Eye, Splash, Spamalot, Huckleberry, THE Pony Express, Mongoose

9 Pax posted to see what in the world I was up to with a Choose Your Own Adventure theme at today’s workout.  It was more of an experiment than anything, but I think it worked out OK.

Thang

Quick warmarama with SSH, IW, Abe Vigoda, Squats, OH claps, then partner up.  Cobains to Red Eye and Burlap who got stuck with me as the third wheel.

Group mosey over to Middle School entrance.  First set of exercises completed together, then the adventure begins.

Each team received a sheet with choices on where to go.  Group 1 started from the Rock Pile, and Group 2 started from the top of the grassy hill.  After each location, partners could choose 1 of 2 locations to go next, and everyone had hit all 6 locations (including the middle school starting point) by the end.

Middle School Entrance – 25 irkins, 20 step-ups, 25 derkins, 25 wide merkins, 5 burpees

Rock Pile – 30 curls, 30 OH presses, 25 rock swings, 25 skull crushers, 5 burpees

Castaneda Court – 90 second people’s chair, 90 second BTTW, 20 donkey kicks, 20 Mike Tysons, 5 burpees

Behind Elementary School – 25 WWII sit-ups, 30 low dolly, 30 H2H, 30 Peter Parker, 5 burpees

Top of the Hill – 30 OH claps, 25 CDD, 25 Seal Claps, 30 arm swirly things, 5 burpees

Elementary School Entrance – 90 second plank, 30 sec side plank right, 30 sec side plank left, 60 sec 6 inches plank, 5 burpees

 

Pax finished between 0610 and 0615 with all of the exercises.

 

NMM

T-claps to the pax for participating in this first try at choose your own adventure.  It may or may not show up again down the road.

Plenty of “compliments” about the exercise choices.  Balco seemed particularly pleased.

Great to see THE Pony Express out.  Mayhem isn’t quite the same when he isn’t there.

    At the risk of sounding like I am kissing up to Mongose, I liked this experiment. Good to do in small groups; hit every body part hard for a few minutes; kept Pax moving , etc. The stop at Castañeda Court particularly sucked. BTTW for 90 seconds? Oh, and ask Soamalkt about Partner BTTW. On second thought, don’t ask him.

    Burlap, quit kissing up to Mongoose. You are better than that.
