The Thang pt.1:
Today was a throwback of technology-inspired Q. We started off with MODEM to warm up:
- M: Monkey Humpers x 50
- O: One-legged Burpees x5 each leg
- D: Derkins x 15
- E: Everest up the Bleachers
- M: Mountain Climber Merkins: 4 count MC and then a Merkin x 15
The Thang pt.2:
Remember when the internet (and AOL) were only accessible through dial-up? We did pull ups in honor of that. Thankfully, no screeching log-on sound emitted during this exercise. Pax in partners took turns doing 1, 2, 3, 4…10 where partner assists with the last few after PAX attempts AMRAP solo. YHC and partner Numbtux made it to 8 each. Whew! Once you couldn’t get even 1 on your own, LBCs until the 6.
After this, we needed some cardio. So we did 2 AYG sprints from the end of endzone to endzone ~120yds.
The Thang pt.3:
Next stone-aged tech piece we paid tribute to was the Typewriter
At the end zone and sideline, start with squatting side shuffle to other sideline (karaoke modification allowed for injury only, not for difficulty), perform 10 clap merkins, then advance 5 yards. Squat shuffle back to other sideline (face same direction each time you shuffle/karaoke) and perform 10 double-shots of Jack Burpees (Modified to 5 after 25 yds). (Penalty for pausing shuffle was 5 Merkins) Advance 5 yards. Perform this until the 50 yd line. Then face the bleachers. Crawl-bear to the opposite sideline and there perform 10 floating starfish. Advance 5 yards, bear-crawl to opposite sideline and there perform 10 iron mikes (Penalty for pausing crawl was 5 SSH). Rinse and Repeat until a touchdown is scored by reaching the opposite endzone. Most PAX advanced to the 30 yd line on the opposite side when time was called.
The motion of the Pax back and forth with minimal advancement is akin to a typewriter…get it?
Amazing how fast an hour goes when having fun.
Circle up for COT
