If you ain’t fourth, you’re last!


So, I watched Semi Pro last night and it inspired a basketball themed workout.  I showed up with two basketballs and a full court practice. As it turns out, the court only has one hoop. That posed a slight dilemma. At halftime, we bounced, literally not figuratively.

WARMUP

Circle up at half court for disclaimer and some stretching in the peppermint forest.  The candy cane and washing machine were introduced.

GAME 1

After splitting up in to 2 teams, we attempted the full court piston drill on the one hoop. While 2 PAX made there way to the hoop, the rest would air squat AMRAP.  The losing team had to do 10 San Antonio Shuffles and the winning got off easy with just 5.  See what I did there?

GAME 2 

Repeato with alternating lunges while you wait. 

GAME 3

Repeato with Apollo Ohno while you wait. 

Team 2 took the series.

Line up on the base line, we outlined the court with some sprints, side shuffle and back pedaling x2.

It was half way through the workout and the rest of my plan didn’t really work due to the lack of a 2nd hoop so we moseyed past Queens Corner to the rock pile.

With a rock of choice:

x10IC curls

x10IC OH press

x10IC skull crushers

Mosey down Travolta Hill to the grassy knoll.

Bear crawl to the top,

x5IC Mericans 

x5IC Shoulder Touch Mericans 

x5IC Hand Release Mericans 

Back down and repeato!

Mosey back to the rock pile for an encore performance of Curls, OH press and skull crushers.

Low flutter, box cutters and low dolly!

Recover, recover!

1. Prayers up for the Kanelli (sp?) family, co-worker of The Force.

2.  Praise for Creeper and prayers for continued recovery from injury.

3.  Continued prayers for Canary for his return to the gloom.

4. Travolta ran a 4.5 forty.  Tantrum?  Not so much.  

5. Hopefully after we left the court at halftime, you feel you got your money’s worth.

Thanks to The Force for his leadership and the opportunity to Q!

Aye!
