I Hate Bear Crawls

See Thru asked me to Q about two weeks ago and of course I was more than happy too. The School Yard was where my site Q days started and will always be a special AO to me. The hard part is coming up with something new, that I had not done there for my Q. Maybe a little bit of couch Q’n and this is what went down:

WARM-UP

SSH (I.C) x 15

High Knees (I.C.) x 15

THE THANG

YHC noticed in a late night drive by of #TheSchoolYard that there is a nice line of perfectly spaced trees along Red Banks Road, the perfect starter kit for bear crawls…. I thought there were 17, but Bono managed to find 18.

Start about 10 feet from the first tree and bear crawl to it, perform 1 merkin, bear crawl to second tree (maybe another 10′) and perform 2 merkins. This was done until the PAX made it to the 17th tree and performed 17 merkins. It was a lot of merkins. 153 to be exact. A modification was given (which the Q I think was the first to take), that you could lunge instead of bear crawl if need be.

Once we got to the we rinse and repeated our way back to the beginning but no bear crawls this time. Karaoke to the first tree, 1 air squat, karaoke to the 2nd, 2 air squats, all the way to the 17th with 17 air squats. It was a lot of squats. 153 to be exact.

We then mosey’d to the “balls to the walls” wall for a quick 3 count down the line. Once everyone counted off, we mosey’d to the football field.

I had done this ladder workout one other time and liked it so, here’s how it went:

First corner – 8 Smurf Jacks

Diagonally across field to second corner – 8 smurf jacks, 16 lunges

Down field to next corner – 8 smurf jacks, 16 lunges, 32 mt climbers

Diagonally to last corner – 8 smurf jacks, 16 lunges, 32 mt climbers and 64 LBC’s

We went down the ladder next starting with 64 LBCs and dropping one exercise at each corner until back to just 8 smurf jacks.

Enough time for a 25, 50, 75 and 100 yard sprint and then back to the flag for two Mary exercises and it was 6:15.

MOLESKIN

Man, what a great crowd of HIM this morning. I hadn’t posted in awhile and was a little down in the dumps about it. This morning for sure kick started me back into. Can’t beat the workout but the fellowship was better. Thanks again to See Thru for letting me Q. Hometown out!
