A pax of 20 came out to Urban Jungle to sharpen their bodies and listen to jokes from the Q that his 8 year old made up. This was my maiden Q for Urban Jungle. The weather could not have been better a nice 54 degrees with a gentle breeze. No FNG’s, disclaimers were given let the fun begin.
Warm Up:
SSH X 25, Windmill X 20, Imperial Walkers X 20, Good Mornings X 10, Sir Fazio Arm Circles X 10, Reverse, 10 Burpees OYO
The Thang:
Count off by 2’s. Indian run to the bottom of Old Lassiter Mill Road, this is the Q’s old workout playground when he lived in the neighborhood. It is a nice gradual hill that wears on you after a while.
1- pick a rock, 2- pick a partner who is holding a rock.
1- curls while 2- runs to the stop sign and back. Flapjack
1- overhead press while 2- runs to the stop sign and back. Flapjack
1- Rock squat 2 – runs backwards to the stop sign and back. Flap jack (after squats running backward up the hill introduces your thighs to some new feelings)
1 – Overhead Tri-cep Curl 2- Bear Crawl to first light run to the stop sign and back. Flap Jack
Plank Hold – until everyone is finished, low plank hold 10 count Nemo
1- curls 2 – Run to the stop sign and back. Low Squat hold until everyone is finished. Plank Hold – Low Plank Hold 10 count Dice. Due to time constraints it was time to deliver the rocks to the pile and Indian Run back to the Jungle. This was a little more challenging and the Indian Run/Walk broke up as we ascended out of the gloom.
Squat Hold in the parking lot while everyone gathered. Sprint to the J C Penny wall for BTW.
