Preamble:
The pre-blast was simply "I love the gloom", and it drew a great crowd this morning. I guess we all do love it after all.Warm-O-Rama:
We mosey'd around the parking lot with some high-knees, butt kickers, and karaoke. Then we picked up a medium coupon on the way to the FOD & Cookie said he wanted some warmup exercises, so we circled up for some normal warm up stuff. Good call Cookie. With a big group everybody felt chatty so YHC had to do so sheperding to keep us moving.The Thang:
Once we picked up our coupons, the rule was you had keep holding it until the end. If you need a break, that's ok- but before you're able to put it down, loudly announce “I Love the Gloom” & tell us what you like about F3 (or anything else you are grateful for) while the rest of us do 5 burpees. You gotta sell it though. I kicked off a playlist of The Shins & we did the following: Dora #1- 50 x Skull Crushers
- 100 x Curls
- 150 x Normal Presses (lay down)
- Two lines, slow Mosey with coupon
- Last PAX drops coupon, does 5 burpees, then picks up coupon & runs to the front
- 50 x Step-ups
- 100 x Lunges
- 150 x Squats (called it a bit early)
- Again, two lines, slow mosey with coupon, leave some space
- Last PAX runs to the front by weaving through the line left & right alternating
