21 redwoods posted for a beautiful morning at the Hall. Here’s how it went down.
Mosey around parking loop with high knees, butt kickers and lunges interspersed. Immediately begin sprints across parking lot with 10 explosive merkins after each sprint. Repeato 30x (probably 10 really but felt like 30).
Grab a partner, grab a coupon and begin 3 minute cycle where P1 executes 10 thrusters, 10 merkins (because we hadn’t already done those.., oh wait) and 10 pull-ups. P2 does WWIs then flapjack. Complete two cycles.
Big Stick mumbled something then disappeared. YHC took Q.
Stay on playground for triple check. Divide into teams of 3. P1 does balls to the wall (B2TW), P2 does 10 swerkins, and P3 does leg raises. Switch when P2 completes swerkins, and each person hits each station 3x.
Mosey to bottom of the hill on the northeast side of the school. Begin The Beast= 6 exercises, 6 reps, 6 stops stopping at ~25, 50, and 75 yards up the hill and then back. Exercises were leg raises, merkins, squats, WWII, and half of a round of burpees before time expired.
NMM: YHC contacted Mr Stick about doing a Co-Q this morning, and there was even a comment about YHC’s portion being heavy on merkins. Not to let that stop him, Big Stick skipped the traditional warmup, disclaimer and chit chat and went right to sprints and explosive merkins. Was this motivated by YHC calling Big Stick second and not first, or was this because BS informed the PAX he had to go play round ball immediately after his portion of the Q? Who can say. Nobody puts Big Stick in a corner!
All jokes aside, the PAX tackled the exploding sprints of doom and confusion around Triple Checks and The Beast with the usual aplomb. Mumble chatter was high with discussions on the various modifications of exploding merkins, the various interpretations of balls to the wall, and where the 25, 50 and 75 lines should be for The Beast. Good times!
