COP

  • Willie Mayes Hayes x10 IC
  • Merkins x10 IC
  • Demotivators (like Motivators except instead of decreasing the reps, we started with 1 rep and increased) 1 –> 7
  • Abe Vigodas x10 IC
  • Squats (3 count hold) x10 IC
  • Monkey Humpers x15 IC
  • Hillbilly Rockettes x10 IC

The warmup concluded with an Indian Run to the top of puke hill, 10 merkins, and then a mosey back to the track.

THE THANG

PAX rotated through 7 stations. The idea was that each station had a high (above the waist) exercise and a low (below the waist or close to the ground) exercise that would be completed in alternating fashion in a ladder from 1 –> 7 (e.g., one box jump, one decline merkin, two box jumps, two decline merkins, … , seven box jumps, seven decline merkins).

  1. Pull up bars: Squat-Jumps; Pull Ups
  2. Tires: Box Jumps; Decline Merkins
  3. Bleachers: Monkey Humpers; Demotivators
  4. Blue Monster: Body Rows; Dips
  5. Benches: Block Skull Crushers; Block Curls
  6. Hill 1: Jacob’s Ladder with Burpees
  7. Hill 2: Jacob’s Ladder with Big Boy Sit Ups
