Two for Captain Caveman
FNGs: None
Warm Up: Good mornings, daisy Pickers, Don Quixote, sir Fazios, Seal Claps, Overhead claps, Imperial Walkers.
The Workout: Having only done this once before, I watched three videos in preparation of bringing a decent mace workout to Captain Caveman. No cars were in the parking deck when I arrived for EC. Maybe no one would post knowing a rookie mace instructor was posting. Finished my run and saw Buford in his SUV. I suggested going right to 2nd F knowing I was new at this mace stuff, but then I asked Buford if we could simply alternate exercises and go slowly through the moves. Well that worked out perfectly! Grabbed a yoga mat and a woobie (a poncho liner) in case we did some exercises on our six. Moved out of the dust mite infested garage into the fresh air portion of the parking lot and got down to business. Lots of arm, leg exercises with crazy names and made up names. Arms, backs, shoulders, legs = ALL ENGAGED. The mace is no joke depending on where you hold it. The further away from the weighted ball, the harder. Exercises were similar to kettlebells. Most complicated IMO was the death March. Need help with the figure 8 swing. Did some pendulums, merkins, rut rows, bent over rows, overhead presses, front presses, skull crushers, tricep extensions, straight arm curls, lunges, etc. most were sets of 10. We got our money’s worth.
Mary: Quick mosey around the block and finished with yoga.
