Tiger War

It was  a brisk morning rolling into  TigerBlood with a good crowd ready to get after it.  After a quick check for FNG’s the PAX were off to get things under way.

FNGs: nope

Warm Up:

Ran along the side of the middle school towards the track for with some butt kickers, karaoke, and high knees along the way.  The PAX knocked out 2 laps around the track stopping along the way for SSH X 20, dips X20, Good Mornings X 20, Fazio Arm Circles X 20, Step up on bleachers X 20, and squat hold Moroccan night clubs X20.  Mosey behind the schools making our way to the far parking lot next to the elementary school.

The Workout:

War

The Pax paired up and 8 went to one side of the parking lot and the other 8 remained on one side of the lot.  The Q had prepared a special deck of cards for War, but realized when pulling the deck out that the wrong deck of cards was brought. There were some secret jokers in the other deck that will have to come out next time.Here is how the Game of F3 War went down…

Each group had half a deck of cards.  One person from each group took turns pulling a card.

Round 1:

  • Diamond – LBC
  • Hearts – SSH
  • Spades – Squat jumps
  • Clubs – Boat Canoes

The highest card was the winner and everyone had to do the exercise and amount of reps based on the card number.  Face cards were 10 and Ace was 11. The losing team had to do 1 burpee after the exercises were complete.  Both groups had to run down the parking lot to third light pole and back ready to pull the next card. Peak Week and the Q faced offed for a good ole’ fashioned duel going into double war.  Peak Week just lost and the penalty was 10 burpees for his team.

Round 2:

  • Diamond – little baby dips on the curbs
  • Hearts –  Star jumps
  • Spades –  merkins
  • Clubs –  SSH
  • Face Cards – run to the 1st island and back, run to the 1st light pole and back, run to the 2nd island and back

Same rules apply to round 2 but there wasn’t a run after each card was pulled unless it was a face card.  One good ole’ fashioned duel went down again with the Q, but this time was beat out and a 5 burpee penalty was applied.

With some mumble chatter about the definition of a boot camp and the amount of running the PAX finished WAR and assembled into two indian runs making their way back  to the parking lot for Mary.

Mary:

Six inch leg hold moving to twelve inch back to six inch up to twelve inch and into flutter kick.

Announcements:

SlideRule mentioned a shield challenge with four men drinking a beer together for the month of January.  He also mentioned starting a small group bible study  in the new year.  More details to follow.

Prayer:

Prayers were lifted for the family and friends of the 14 year old girl that was hit by a car in Holly Springs yesterday and lost her life. Prayers were also lifted for a friend of Banana Seat that died of a heart attack along with all unspoken prayers.

It is always good to get out and lead the group.  Watch out for the Joker in the future.
