School is back in session, college football season is in the offing and rumors were rampant of various fart-sacking excuses—from a 2.0’s first day of kindergarten to having celebrated one PAX’s birthday into the wee hours on Saturday night (just who needs 24-plus hours to recover)?
Be that as it may, 23 PAX convened for a spirited workout on Navy Field Monday morning.
The Thang:
Warmup at Fetzer track: SSH x 20, Prisoner Squats x 10, Imperial Walkers x 10, Carolina Dry Docks x 10, Merkins x 10.
Jog to Navy Field and split into two groups.
Beano takes one group and runs Four Corners around Navy Field, stopping at each corner for an exercise.
Meanwhile Shooter takes the other group and circles up for a 100x Merkin Pyramid (w/10 mountain climbers and 10 burpees halfway through) and a Squat/ Double-Merkin Burpee ladder from one to five.
At 10 minutes, the groups switch from the Circle of Pain to Four Corners and vice versa.
Then all PAX line up at the end line of the football practice field and Bear Crawl the length of the field, stopping every 10 yards for a Burpee. Plank it out at the end until everyone finishes. Then back in the other direction, Walking Lunge with a stop every 10 yards for five Merkins.
We circled up for Mary with LBCs, Freddie Mercuries, Long Slow Flutters x 20 alternating between each with 30 second bows-to-toes planks.
FNG Pom Pom, a member of the Tar Heel varsity cheerleading squad, joined our group, giving us 40 years age differential between 19 and the old man, YHC at 59.
