Summer is upon us and a number of Gipper regulars are enjoying themselves on vacation. Expecting a light turnout, YHC was pleasantly surprised when two FNGs rolled in this morning to round off our crew for the day at 5. Brief disclaimer and explanation of what we are all about in the F3 Nation before getting underway with a mosey to the Justice Center.
Warmup of SSHs, plank jacks, windmills, Merkins, Imperial Walkers, Peter Parkers and finally some shoulder circles with overhead hand claps. Mostly in cadence with 10-20 reps for each exercise.
Mosey to the top of the Justice Center Parking Garage for some Merkin/Squat mountain. Partner up and execute first 100 Merkins and then 200 Squats while your partner first sprints down/backpedals up the ramp and then lateral shuffles down and then back up the ramp.
Mosey to the front of the Justice Center for fun and games. Four cones delineated a rough circle, and the PAX counted off to establish an order and got to work passing a tennis ball around in that order. Every dropped pass earned an OYO exercise. While we had it going smoothly for a while, perfection can only last so long and so we ended up doing a fair number of jump squats, Merkins, Sister Mary Katherines, and Seal Jacks. YHC also increased the level of difficultly as soon as the PAX kinda mastered things and so we switched up the passing order, had to leave the circle after each pass to do a burpee before coming back in to receive the next pass, etc.
Mosey back to the Trailhead for some abbreviated Mary, a set of flutter kicks 20x IC, and then it was time for closing ceremonies.
Welcome Bean and Buzz to the PAX!
