Preamble:

Had a great time with my VQ, glad to be part of a good, encouraging group.

Warm-O-Rama:

Mosey around the parking lot for a moment then circled up for a few warmup exercises/stretches

10 four-count Side Straddle Hop
10 four-count Weed Picker
10 four-count Imperial Walker
World’s Greatest Stretch
a few seconds of Michael Phelps

Grabbed cinders and went to the field

The Thang:

My own personal version of a Dora workout which I titled “There And Back Again” since in the course of the workout everyone ends up running down to the end of the field and back over a dozen times.

In pairs: one PAX performs the exercise while the other PAX runs all the way down to the other base line of the field and back and then switch. Music is playing, each time the song switches, the new exercise starts. 8 exercises, 8 songs.

Big Boy Sit-ups (Rocky theme song)
Colt 45 (Jump, Van Halen)
Low Plank (Hearts On Fire, from Rocky IV)
Block Merkins or Walk overs (Kung Fu Fighting, Carl Douglas)
Flutter Kicks (Danger Zone, Kenny Loggins)
Colt 45 (Eye Of The Tiger, Survivor)
LBC (Believer, Imagine Dragons)
Rows w/ cinder (I’ll Make A Man Out Of You, Mulan)

COT:

Prayers for DC2 being under the weather

Prayers for us to be good husbands and leaders of our homes
