QIC: Tesla and 2.0 Chewy

 

24 strong joined us today.  QIC explained that we were preparing for March Madness with a Sweet Sixteen, Elite Eight and Final Four beatdown.  PAX moseyed over to the circle and…

 

Warmarama

16 reps for each exercise:

Side Straddle Hops

Hill Billies

Imperial Walkers

Mountain Climbers

Arm Circles

PAX looked warm so we moseyed down to the bleachers for…

 

Sweet Sixteen pre THANG

Run up the bleachers, run down the bleachers

Side-shuffle from one staircase to the next and back

That’s 4 run laps.

Do that 4x for 16 total.

Sugar Rays that finish early can add 10 merkins and plank for the Six.

PAX crushed it and looked ready for more, so we trotted down to the track…

 

Elite Eight THANG

With an FNG and some 2.0s, we took a run around the track to all Elite Eight stations for demonstrations.

Groups split into 2s or 3s per station.

AMRAP each station until you are relieved in a “chain reaction” tabata.  QIC led the tabata every 60 secs.  Exercises:

Ranger Merkins

Murder Bunnies

Donkey Kicks

Bent Rows

WWII Situps

Monkey humpers

Sumo Squats

Carolina Dry Docks

PAX got thru 1 1/2 rounds of the Elite Eight.  Q called an Omaha and we gathered.  Mosey back to the shovel flag circle for…

 

Final Four – 6MOM begins

Qs (including Chewy) called out the exercises and PAX switched between them as we saw sweat pour down and faces scrunch up.  Exercise circuit went thru 2-3x:

Chill Cut Plank

Super man

Banana

Rocket man

Rinse & Repeat

 

PAX looked cooked, but we couldn’t finish just yet so we recovered and went right into:

 

National Championship

Q split the group and half for them to stare each other down.

Half of the group did 7 merkins while the other group executed Al Gores.  When they finished, we switched.

We then did a countdown and swapped:

7 merkins, switch to Al Gores

6 merkins, switch to Al Gores

5 merkins, switch, 4, 3, 2, 1

PAX stared each other down and growled a bit, but all finished strong.

 

Champion Cutting Down the Net

All PAX, 1 American Hammer for the win!  Great job!
