It’s been 50 hours and 13 minutes since this workout at SNS on Wednesday September 26, and my legs still hurt. This was the first installment of Flaccoversary week and I wanted to make it one to remember. Now I’m trying to forget it. Read below to see why.
Warm Up
Mosey to the gate, circle up and warm up
Good morning x 10
Sir Fazio Arm Circles x 10 front x 10 back
Imperial Walkers x 15
Shoulder/tricep lean R/L
Merkins x 40
Partner up, catch me if you can to the community center rock pile
- Partner 1 – 5 burpees, then run to catch partner
- Partner 2 – lunge walk
- It was A LOT of lunge walking, mumblechatter ensued. It was beautiful. YHC wanted to succumb to all the lunge complaints and the burning in my legs, but we trudged onward
The Thang
Grab a rock from the aforementioned rock pile. “Ego rock or travel rock?” they asked. “Yes”. Just pick a damn rock. You will carry said rock for the rest of the workout, and only be allowed to put down for one of the exercises, which you will hate.
Four Corner Modified Dora Rock-A-Palooza
Partner 1 starts curling; Partner 2 lunge walks with rock overhead (yes, more lunges) the long side of the rectangle. When partner 2 reaches next corner, call partner 1 to join you and start curling. Partner 1 lunge walk to meet up with partner 2.
Repeat but do Rock-Push-BearCrawls on short sides, and switch to Rock Rows after curls.
After two complete circuits, the PAX seemed to start questioning their choice of rocks. Let’s mix it up – everyone put down your rock; All-You-Got sprint to stop sign and back, PAX choice of rock when you return. Sorry, old, slow guys.
(YHC thought he oughta be a benevolent Q and allow all the other PAX to choose new rocks first. Bad idea.)
How about 2 more times around the 4 corners? Those lunges are feeling really good.
