Breaking things and Fruitcake

0

In the spirit of breaking things, we took a break from Atilla’s Q-ing and had a Pigskin Q.

We began by moving under the covered walkway. Fortunately, no injuries occurred (at the workout) before the standard disclaimer was issued.

Warmup

  • 20 SSHs
  • 20 Imperial Walkers
  • 20 Ukrainian Soldiers
  • 10 Don Quixote

The workout is a cumulative Ring of Fire. Each person gets to add a KB exercise.

I started out with

  • 15 Swings OYO
  • Run to the end of the walkway, do 3 Burpees and return to the start

Next

  • 15 Swings OYO
  • 15 Curls OYO (Fudd)
  • Run to the end of the walkway, do 3 Burpees and return to the start

Next

  • 15 Swings OYO
  • 15 Curls OYO (Fudd)
  • 15 Upright Rows OYO (Lighthouse)

The other exercises added with each ‘round’ were

  • 15 Hammers OYO (Offshore)
  • 15 Sit and Press OYO (Atilla)
  • 15 Bench Press OYO (Whitesnake)
  • 15 Squats OYO (Blue Moon)

After everyone had a turn at calling an exercise, we ‘Deconstructed’ at each round, dropped an exercise.

  • Swings were dropped first
  • Then Curls were dropped
  • Then Upright Rows. I think we ran out of time after dropping the Upright Rows.

Warm down

  • 15 Heels to Heaven in Cadence
  • Various Stretching exercises

Announcement:

  • 2nd Tuesday, 2nd F, but this time at Joey’s Hot Dog in Innsbrook (near Firehouse Subs)

We finished up with coffee, fruitcake, discussions of the electric grid (one of my favorite topics), well water, your own power supply, the threat from the Chinese government to the grid and Jones breaks.

Share.
