Today being the 250th birthday for the Marine Corps, YHC had an USMC themed workout.
YHC decided to show the PAX what a Parris Island boot camp style squad bay beat down looks like.
COP – various warmup exercises.
Squad Bay – The PAX lines up as they would in a squad bay, facing each other about 10-15 ft apart. We decided to use the parking lot numbers as our starting position.
11s – The PAX facing each other does monkey humpers at the starting position, bear crawl to middle to meet for some buoya merkins.
Triple check – YHC introduced the PAX to the quarterdeck, where Marine Corps recruits receive additional motivation by a drill instructor. For our scenario, we used the sidewalk as our quarterdeck. Same starting positions, P1 does SSH, P2 squats, P3 is the timer, runs to quarterdeck and does 5x burpees. Rinse and repeat.
During the triple check recruit Yardsale decided to mess up the rotation, so true to Parris Island style, the entire PAX goes to the sand pit for further character development. We mosey to front of school, P1 wall sit, P2 run to sidewalk 10x 2 count imperial walkers. Rinse and repeat 3x.
Circle up for ring of fire merkins. Mosey back to flag for ring of fire core. Recover.
Numbers, names, Corned Beef took us out.
