QIC: Solo
PAX: Space Jam, Zebra, Chubs, Sheed, Solo
This morning in Salem, 5 PAX gathered at Longwood Park. I ran up to the parking lot in the 11th hour after feverishly working on setting up.
T-Claps to Cake who was kind enough to swing by and plant the shovel flag for me prior to taking off for his cycling adventure with Dunphy.
Warmup:
We take a meandering mosey down to the basketball court where we circle up and execute the following maneuvers: 25 SSH, 10 Burpees OYO, 25 Arm Circles, 25 Reverse Arm Circles, 20 Imperial Walkers.
I then ask a shadowy silhouette (Sheed) if he is an FNG. Sorry man, I guess I don’t get out to Salem enough.
THE THANG:
We had a special back to school themed circuit workout that we did spread around the basketball court. I brought some special school themed tunes and we rotated as each song changed.
Stations consisted of:
– Physics- Newton’s cradle – In plank position raise one arm up to the sky, then return to regular, and raise the other arm
– Zoology- Zebra Butt Kickers – plank again, this time you raise your foot until your knee is holding a 90° angle you then kick your heel to the sky as if crushing the jaw of an attacking lioness. (Zebra really took to these given his natural ability to ward off such attacks)
– Spelling- ABCs
– Nap Time – Rest and cheerleading
– Phys Ed- Big Boy Sit-ups (About the time we hit this, Edge of Seventeen came on and Space Jam got all excited! It was fun until I realized that this song is 5:29)
– Civics- Adapted Bernie Sanders- because the hill was occupied by another station, we did this on picnic tables and essentially made them backwards box step ups)
– Homeroom- Choose whatever you want
– History- Weezy Jefferson(we’re just going to pretend that it is based on Thomas Jefferson)- Swing legs from a 6″ hold to up in the air and back down. After a bit of this you are weezing too
– Math- Doubling Merkins- using regular, narrow, and wide grip you double each time through (1,1,1;2,2,2;4,4,4 etc.)
– Astronomy- Star Jumper
– Backpack Boogie- Hill Ruck with all my high school yearbooks- Chubs actually earned a gold star on this by doing it for 2 songs . . . Way to get it
We got through once there was no Mary time, so we circled up and headed out.
Good Job Fellas!
