HIIT me baby one more time

FNGs:
Warm Up:

Mosey, then a quick warmup since I suspected we would run out of time (and we did)

Trunk twists, windmills, jump steps, then add in 2 jump steps plus knee strike.

Plank out, back in, stand up, kick

The Workout:

3 rounds, each round has sets of 30-20-10 reps with decreasing length runs (something like 400-300-200m) each set. For the sets of 30 and 20, break it into sets of 10. So for example: longest run, then 30 of each (broken into sets of 10, but no rest in between), then medium run, then 20 of each, then shortest run, then 10 of each.

Round 1:
Jumping lunges
Hindu push-ups
American hammers

Round 2
QBox jumps or step ups
Erkin
Imperial Walker’s in cadence

Round 3 (ran out of time before getting here)
Bobby Hurley
Rows with bands or TRX
Boat canoe

Combatives

Wrist locks

5-count Pax round-robin

Mary-Go-Round

YHC Dovetail was out last week, Martini covered, but back into this week. Return of Gump, and new-to-this-AO Yosemite. Dovetail’s 2.0 Charizard out for another one, at his own request. A bit young at 8 to participate fully, but if he wants to get up at 5 with Dad, I can’t say no!

FNGs: none
Warm Up:

Long jog around the lot. High knees to the median, then backpedal; buttkickers to the median, then backpedal; rinse & repeat. Windmills, trunk twists, Sir Fazzio arm circles.

The Workout:

“6 minutes of Mary” (round 1): 6 exercises, 10 count or cadence, with 3 burpees after each exercise

  • LBCs (cadence)
  • Freddy Mercury (cadence)
  • Leg lifts
  • Side plank dips (10 each side)
  • V-ups
  • Low slow flutter (cadence)

then a lap around both lots

An intermission of Declining-count supersets of box jumps and dips: 12, then 9, then 6, then 3, no breaks.

6 Minutes of Mary, Round 2, so a 2x modifier (20 count or cadence, 6 burpees in between each)

Combatives

Pressure point escapes

Mary: see above
Announcements:

T-Claps (Recognition):
Prayer:

Snake Eyes

Light crew today with only 2 sheepdogs and a pup as YHC brought his 2.0 to his first official AO.

FNGs: Charizard (he’s been to 3 of the 2.0 workouts, but this morning got up for his first early post)

Warm Up:

Mosey, SSH, trunk twists, good mornings, daisy pickers, imperial walkers, hillbillies, karaoke

The Workout:

Three dice, one determines the exercise, the other two added together determine reps. Doubles equals one lap run around the parking lot, and a corners roll means roller’s pick. Continue throwing dice until out of time. Exercises for each number were:

  1. Catalina wine press (chillicut plank with a merkin at the end)
  2. Cheerleaders (SSH, but squat on legs open)
  3. Box jumps
  4. Dips
  5. Lt. Dan
  6. 4×4 press (two 30” 2x4s screwed together for this, but pressure-treated 4x4s would have been nice and heavy. Use whatcha got.)

Combative:

wing chung striking, open-end escapes

Mary:

Low slow flutter, LBCs, leg raises, homer to marge, WWIIs
