Double 21’s

FNGs: none

PAX: @gamecock, @Abacus, @Warbucks, @Finkle
Warm Up: Started off with Good Mornings and Daisy Pickers, transitioned to Hillbillies and Imperial Walkers, next quad stretches and bending over to touch toes, moved into downward dog to runners pose.
The Workout: Double 21’s.  We did regular 21s but then stacked two exercises so it took a really long time.  Started off with people’s chair with seal claps (20) and airpress (20) then moved over to step ups at the park benches both legs counting as one set.  We moved through this until we got to 11 people’s chair with arm workouts and 11 step ups and switched to 10 sumo squats both sides counting as one set and (11) dips and finished working our way through the set.  I shared with the group that those sumo squats were probably gonna hurt tomorrow and they were giving me that special feeling…

Speed Traps

Warm Up: Mosey around the ballpark track doing butt kickers, high knees and crossovers.  Then did SSH, Good Mornings, Daisy Pickers, Hillbillies, leg stretches
The Workout: Grabbed a rock and hit the road.  At each intersection we stopped to do a prescribed rock exercise until we came to our beloved FQV speed trap sign.  We then went to task to see who was the fastest sprinter.  Each person that sprinted then picked an exercise with their rock to lead the group through.  YHC ended up being the fastest with 18 MPH with several others with a close 17 MPH.  But whose to say it was a competition b/c we’re all winners.  Next we went down to the park and did a bear crawled up a couple hills with exercises at the top and bottom and took a nice mosey back to the Grave to finish out with prayer.
Mary: none, field trip took too long.
