8 PAX in the gloom to send January off with a bang. Usual speaker, Usual playlist, Usual Tabata planned. But this time, YHC had one more trick up his sleeve. So after the disclaimer, lets head off to the rock pile.
Warm Up of some usual stuff. SSH, IW, etc.. Grab a rock. Instructions included Feel Free to Go Big, as we werent going to be moseying with it – besides hauling it to the gazebo.
Thing 1: Exercising to some of YHC’s favorite tunes. 10 rounds. Each round is 45 seconds with 15 seconds rest. This isn’t a race for 45 seconds. Push, push hard. But do the full exercise. Dont cheat yourself.
Overhead Press, Squat, Sit Up, Curl, Lunges, Little Baby Twists, Row, Step Up, Derkins
Thing 2: the Trick Up The Sleeve: lets get that heart rate UP. Over to the parking lot.
Sprint to the gym, 5 burpees, sprint back, burpee until the 6 gets home.
Seriously, lets sprint. Not mosey. Sprint. The idea is to push hard and get that heart rate up. AND THEN have to work through the burpees while the heart is pounding. YHC was pushing 150.
2-3 minute wait for YHC and FastTax heart rate to get back into the 90s. Then do it again. Then rest again to get the heart rate back down towards 90.
Thing 3 is just Thing 1 again. Back to the gazebo. Another round with more tunes. Then return the rox and head back to the flag.
Note to Self: that sprint/burpee combo is HARD. I think its good, but what would I know? After all, I am not a professional trainer. But I’m sure I’ll try that again.
