A Few of my Favorite Things
6 for EC! Probably some kind of Sheepdog Record. Shredder, Sparky, Dovetail, Fumunga, Martini, and Quiver for 2 miles.
Warm Up:
- Body circles
- Indian run: Jog/high knees/butt kickers/karaoke
- Samson stretch
- Lunge pulse
- Inch worm, jump legs forward, then back pedal to start
The Workout:
Bikes, books, guns, keyboards
After each “favorite thing,” sprint from one end of the lot to the last median, then a jog once around the lot.
AK-47s
Start laying down, do 10 hollow body rocks (start on back, roll to your front, always keeping head, arms, and legs of the ground, like rolling in the mud), push to plank on the last, then “check the action” with a 10-count of shoulder taps, then “fire”with 10 jumps (legs forward into crouch, hands don’t move). Made mention that an AK mag holds 20 to 30 rounds, so they can be greatful they only had to fire 10.
Alternatively, do reps of 3, and rinse and repeat for as many Pax as there are (use a multiplier if there’s 3 or less)
Clickety-Clack (building custom keyboards)
Start at one median, go to the next.
Fancy feet for a Pax-count of 10, then smash the enter key with a frog jump. Continue through each pax.
Downhill MTB (Bikes)
Freddy Mercury, starting slow and speeding up, then pop up and do 6 box jumps burpees
Books (C.S. Lewis, LOTR)
Orc squats: deep squat, hands on the ground, clean and jerk, landing with hands overhead, in a deeper squat). 20 reps.
Lewis – Mere Christianity – dynamic tension: front, side, down, up. Go through twice, recover for 20 sec, then twice more.
Combatives:
45° defense. Start with hands up in disarming position. Block punch by stepping close at a 45° angle. Don’t want to be too far away from attacker. As you step, punch to floating ribs, then follow with an elbow to the GB20 pressure point.
Mary:
Round robin. Homer to Marge, low slow flutter, crab cakes, Freddy Mercury, LBCs, boat canoes
