Six Pax plus the QIC were able to slip out of their festive homes to sneak in a Christmas morning workout. Pop-a-lock wanted to co-Q to prepare for his VQ and birthday Q on January 8th at the Birdcage. After the standard disclaimer the Pax mosyed around the parking lot and circled up in front of the Grand Stage. The following Warm up exercises commenced led by Pop-a-lock and QIC.
SSH x20
Windmills x20
Self Love x12
Arm Circles F/B x12
Grass Grabbers x12
As a tribute to the Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker, the Pax performed Imperial Walker Squats from the front of the stage to the track… and the Pax thought they were going to get a brake on Christmas morning.
After a mosey to the field in front of the zoo, the Pax paired up into Naughty and Nice Pax. The Naughty Pax Reindeer crawled 25 yards sprinted to the end of the field, Reindeer crawled another 25 yards back, then ran backwards to the Nice Pax, and flap jacked the following exercises.
Elf on the Shelf (Al Gore’s)
Shiny Bicycles (Freddie Mercury’s)
Chimney Climbers (Mountain Climbers) Name credit to Pop-a-lock!
Next up was a Christmas Wreath of Fire. 4 rounds, one for each week of Advent.
Once complete the Pax made their way to Santa’s Workshop (the Shelter) for the following exercises led by Pop-a-lock in cadence:
Left leg step ups x15
Right leg step ups x15
Dips x 15
Incline Merks x20
The Pax rounded out the Christmas morning workout with a quick circle of MARY, complete with a little coal for the stocking, if you know what I mean…
Little Baby Elves x20
Hello Santas x20
The Pax mosyed back to the flag for COT, nameorama, announcements, and a closing prayer. We attempted to EH a passer by. He took our picture, but I know he thought we were crazy because we all EHed him at the same time! That is an area of oppotunity in 2020.
Lest not forget, He is the reason for the Season!
