The Rock and the Boulder

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , ,

EC: Cupid

FNGs: None

Pre-Warm Up: YHC went and grabbed a nice big rock for the beatdown, figuring we’d have ~5-8 people. 10 PAX showed up.

Warm Up: At 530, YHC audibled and asked for a volunteer to go grab another rock from the pile. Modify volunteered and the rest of us took a quick mosey around the parking lot, and then did the following exercises:

20 x IC SSH, 10 x IC Sir Fozie arm circles (F+R), 15 x IC Imperial Walkers, 15 x IC Hillbillies, Michael Phelps.

The Workout: Moseyed over to the rocks where we discovered that Modify’s rock was not a rock, but a small bounder instead. That’s the breaks. YHC did a count off, where we split into two groups of 5 for the workout.  Each group grabbed a rock. From this point on, rocks were not allowed to touch the ground. Group 1 got the rock, Group 2 got the boulder. Plan was to switch halfway though. Each time the rock touched the ground, all PAX had to do a burpee. The number of burpees increased every time the rock was dropped.

Indian run down the trail per group. Person with the rock did a turkish get-up, then caught up to the group and passed off the rock. After some logistical errors, we worked out that the rock should go to the second-to-last person in line. We ran down to the big hill for some clockwork merkins on the (extremely muddy…woops) hill.

YHC randomly called out 2-3 positions and counts of merkins. Person holding the rock did one-arm planks until YHC called switch. One burpee was performed during this set due to a dropped rock.

Next we headed to the bottom of the hill where we did star jumps to get the mud off of our shoes. Due to potential safety concerns of taking rocks down the hill, rock was allowed to drop going down hill. Dawgpound helpfully rolled Group 1’s rock down the hill, mud swiftly moved from rock to PAX shirts.

Person with the rock did their choice of rock exercise, like curls for the girls or tricep extensions. After a few rock switches, we switched to squats, which were done with the rock.

Indian run with rock turkish get-ups back to Kenny’s Grave. Halfway back, we started mixing it up. Indian run was done with karaoke, backwards running, broad jumps. Group 1 circled back for Group 2, where someone helpfully pointed out that the boulder was never given to Group 1 (woops). YHC took the boulder and nearly caused penalty burpees trying to do the turkish get-up…good job Group 2.

Once everyone got back to Kenny’s Grave, it was alternating BTTW (15 count) and People’s Chair (20 count) until everyone had a turn with the rock on each exercise. For BTTW, rock-PAX held one arm plank. For People’s Chair, rock was held in the chair position.  Rocks were deposited on the ground for Mary.

Mary: YHC went around the circle, each PAX called out an exercise.

Zombies

PAX: , , , , ,

 

EC: YHC did about 1.5 miles because he couldn’t remember the route and didn’t want to get lost/show up late

Warm Up: Mosey around the parking lot

15 side straddle hops IC, 15 imperial walkers IC, 15 hillbillies IC, 15 mountain climbers IC

Michael Phelps it out

The Workout: Special request from Messi to play Wasp since he missed that day. YHC obliged with a similar game and we moseyed to the baseball field for 3 rounds of Zombie.

Two PAX were zombies, they had to catch everyone else and tag them. PAX had a 10 count to get away (you had to stay within the baseball field), and then the zombies were released. Once you were tagged, you became infected and had to do 5 burpees. After the burpees, you are now a zombie and you have to hunt the rest of the people down. Last person tagged, no burpees. Shoutout to Dovetail for his creative but unsuccessful technique of climbing the fence, it was pretty entertaining to watch.

After the third round, PAX grabbed a rut row sized rock and moseyed to basketball court for a modified Dora.

100 BTTW shoulder taps while partner runs a suicide (half court, full court)

200 butterfly situps while partner bear crawls forward and crab walks back (sideline to sideline)

300 rut rows while partner sumo squats forward and back (sideline to sideline)

PAX moseyed back to flag for Mary.

Mary: On your 6, everyone picked an exercise. I think we did four corners, one legged homer to marge, some sort of breathing-while-tensing-abs exercise, LBCs, and then PAX had a nice day because we ran out of time.
