New Disc Golf Course at Possum Trot

/in /by

FNGs: None
Warm Up: Mosey around outside of tennis courts. SSH, Frankenstein’s, Good mornings, Daisy Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, SFAC. (all I/C)
The Workout: Coupons needed: 1 tire, 2 25lbs weights and 1 frisbee.  1 PAX flipped the tire while remaining PAX did an I/C 25 count exercise. Once count complete a PAX of choice got 1 throw to get the frisbee as close to or in the tire as possible. Group of PAX moseyed and John Cusac’d with the weights to the tire.  We counted the number of regular stride steps from the frisbee to the tire and did burpees for the number counted (ex. 5 steps = 5 burpees). We repeated this sequence until all members did the rotation.  2nd time through we cut the I/C down to 15 and per two steps = 1 burpee.  Estimated total number of burpees done 100. SLT exercises were a variety.  Total number of holes in 1….ZERO. Most steps away from the tire….22.

Warm Up: Mosey around the parking lot, in cadence SSH, Daisy Pickers, Good Mornings, toe touches (middle, left over right, right over left), quad stretches
The Workout:

Batter Up!  – It was a glorious morning for some time out on the ball field.  YHC had 16 wonderful exercises all lined up for business on cards in a hat.  Each batter would draw an exercise out of the hat for a single.  The PAX had to sprint the bases/crab walk/lunge walk/bear crawl while other PAX were at home plate doing the exercise.  Once all exercises were done we put the cards back in the hat and did a double with the batter now drawing 2 cards and doing the exercises.  Batter now had to go around the bases 2 times and PAX did one exercise per each lap around bases.  We were gonna do triples but ran out of time.  NUTS!
Mary: Something about Mary…we did round robin

Event 2: Stair climbs.  We started by bear crawling up the flight of stairs.  At the top we did 1 minute of lunges.  On the way back down we did either irkins or derkins.  At the bottom we followed up with a lucky roll of the exercise cube and did whatever exercise it landed on.  Unfortunately, @Martini had to roll 20 Burpees.  We did 3 sets of stair climbs.
Mary: We took a quick jog back to the parking lot to end with a 10 count of Outlaws and Boxcutters.
