With port-o-potties, white tents, and police barricades surrounding the AO, the 5 Pacs that showed up knew that a post Mardi Gras parade was coming, so let’s get this beat down started.
Warmarama
21’s- Q starts off exercise in cadence up to 5. From there, everyone is quite as a church mouse. All pacs need to stop at 21. If all the pacs don’t finish at the same time, everyone does 5 penalty burpees.
Exercises completed with 21 count were side straddle hops, knee highs, butt kicks, imperial walkers, and wind mills.
This is harder than it sounds. We were only able to complete the side straddle hops without any penalty burpees.
Mosey to the corner of Marigny and the Lakefront. Start off with one exercise, mosey north to the next block, rinse and repeat the last exercise plus another. We did this for 5 blocks, and here is how it went…
Block 1 – Merkins, 10 – IC, Slow Count
Block 2 – RR + Copper Head Squats, 10 – IC
Block 3 – RR + ECBB’s, 10 – IC
Block 4- RR + Overhead Claps, 10 –IC
Block 5 – RR + 10 Burpees OYO
Lunge Indian Run
Pacs line up in a single file line. Pac in the front of the line leads group in squats IC. Last pac in line does lunges to the front of the line and takes over the count, just like an Indian Run.
An overzealous Q wanted to do this a full Old Mandeville block. Half way through the block, he quickly realized how long this takes. Had to adjust on the fly and cut it to half a block. Mosey to the Marsh.
Play a ten minute game of half-court basketball. It was a little challenging with 5, but we made it happen. Every time a point was scored, the team that got scored on had to do a penalty exercise. They ranged from 5 burpees, bear crawls to half court, suicides, and sprints the length of the court.
Mosey/Indian Run back to the flag. We flip flopped one block of regular mosey for a block of a regular Indian Run until we got to the Lake Front. Mosey to the flag once we got to the lakefront.
STEVE took over the Q for some Mary to wrap up the beat-down. I am not sure of the grueling details, but I heard hello dolly and some grunts.
