The Thang 1
Flora 1-2-3, aka Blockora 1-2-3, aka Dora with blocks 1-2-3. High Rise introduced this last week during Swole Fest 3, and it was so much fun I brought it back for another round. All Pax partner up with blocks. 100 Merkins: P1 does Merkins with each hand on a block, P2 does squats, flapjack after 20 Merkins. 200 Power Cleans: P1 does Power Cleans with block, P2 does side lunges, flapjack after 20 Power Cleans. This one was quite tiring. 300 LBC’s: P1 does LBC’s with block on chest, P2 does block hops, flapjack after 30 LBC’s.
The Thang 2
Block-o-round. Each Pax stood 15 feet apart with block. Exercises with blocks x 20 in cadence, then animal crawl counterclockwise to the next block for the next exercise. Curls, Right leg lunges, Rows, Left leg lunges, Dips, Block raises, Curls, Bus-drivers.
We ended with 8-count cinnamon twist crunch, explained and led by Belloq. Very nice exercise!
COT: count-off, name-o-rama, intentions, and a prayer. We plan to continue Swole Fest for most of the summer, Mondays at City Park. Please come and join us. Thanks for letting me lead.
