Warm Up: Good mornings, Side Straddle Hops,  Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Claps

The Workout: I’m calling this one the “Horse Shoe” – Working on an oval-shaped stretch of parking lot, starting at 1 side of the back end of the “horse shoe” we did 10 squats. We ran up to the front of the “horse shoe” where we did 10 burpees. Next, we ran down to the other back end of the horse shoe where we did 10 Carolina Dry Docks. Back up to the top of the horse shoe to do now 9 burpees. This continued until we got down to 1 burpeee at the top of the horse shoe.

Next, we did numerous sets of 10 step ups and 10 dips until morale improved.

Lastly, we round robin’ed between merkins, big boy sit-ups, and bear crawling (bear crawler dictated the exercise change).
