7 Pax showed up a the Wilderness today for a great workout. Here’s what transpired:

Welcome/Disclaimer

Mosey a lap down the street and back for Warmarama (IC):

-SSH x 30 (60)

-Toy Soldier x20(40)

-IST x20(40)

-Slow Windmill x10

-Long Snapper/Dwight Schrute/Slippery Dip Can/Carrot Pullers/Lil’ Professor x10

Grab a rock behind the tennis courts and Zamperini back to the parking lot

The Thang:

Two buckets were placed apart at each opposite end of the parking lot. One was empty and the other full of 40 tennis balls (20 various beat downs written on them-two  balls had the same exercise, so 20×2). The goal was to transfer as many balls possible back to the empty bucket at the opposite end of the parking lot before recover, recover. The entire Pax would run from the empty bucket to the full one and one Pax would grab a ball.  All Pax would then sprint back to the empty bucket and drop it in. Before running again, all Pax would do the exercise (and # of reps) listed on the ball and then 20 LBC’s before running to retrieve another ball.

Recover, Recover

Moleskin:

POS, Jorel, Toxic, Peart Plus, Hot Wax, Amen, and YHC did a whole lotta reps with running in between. Did we play with fuzzy balls….yes. Was Toxic in his typical state….yes. Did we transfer all of the balls before recover, recover….no. Did YHC issue burpee penalties for all balls remaining as planned…no (I have a “heart”-show to know). Do we know how many LBC’s we did….no. Are our abs happy that we talked to them this morning….yes. The Pax played nice and no one cheated. These hard chargers got it done today! Thanks for lending YHC the keys to the AO Amen.
