Day: September 26, 2021

There were 6 HIM who showed up at the premier Wednesday workout TRB. YHC got an idea to come up with some sequence work. This is what happened…

Warm Up

Mosey to the back parking lot where YHC explained the Thang.

Some of us have heard of the mathematician Fibonacci and his famous sequence. He didn’t invent the sequence, he just figured it out. It goes like this, each number in the sequence is the sum of the previous two numbers. It goes like this, 0,1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377 and so on. Because F3 involves exercises, we did this.

1 Burpee

1 Burpee

2 Merkins

3 CDDs

5 WW1 situps

8 Bobby Hurleys

13 Lunges each leg

21 Mountain Climbers

34 Flutterkicks

55 Squats

89 Side Straddle Hops

144 LBCs

233 Air Presses

377 of nothing! That’s too much!

Mosey up to the front of the school and back for some trivia.

Fibonacci was born in what year? 1170 AD.  Do 11 Alternating Shoulder Taps and 70 Moroccan Night Clubs

The great band U2 was formed in what year? 1976. Do 19 Werkins and 76 Goofballs

Mosey back to the front of the school this time.

Another great band Led Zeppelin has sold how many albums? 111 million in the US and 300+ million internationally. Partner up and do 111 Merkins and 300 Dying Cockroaches. The partner who runs will go down the way to the last light. Time’s up!

Thanks for the opportunity to lead men!

Pledge

Hillbilly Walkers IC x 20

Slow Merkins IC x 10

Mosey behind the restaurants and wind up at the bottom of the stairs.

5 Burpees

10 Diamond Merkins

20 Squats

40 Flutter Kicks

80 Calf Raises

Mosey around the buildings and plank at the bottom of the stairs for the 6.

Rinse and repeat 2 more times.

Mosey to the basketball court for stage 1 of Lazy Dora.

Partner up for 100 Merkins.  Partner one does 10 Merkins while partner two planks, then flap jack until each partner does 50 Merkins.

Mosey up 7^th Street and turn right to the parking lot at Riverside Baptist Church for stage 2 of Lazy Dora.

Select a different partner for 200 flutter Kicks.  Partner one does 20 Flutter Kicks while partner two holds feet at 6”, then flap jack until each partner does 100 Flutter Kicks.

Mosey to the train bridge for stage 3 of Lazy Dora being careful not to trip over the ridge in the road at the intersection of South Main and Standpipe Hill.  It’s dark at this corner and the ridge blends into the pavement making it difficult to see.  YHC tripped on it and took a spill.  Anyway, a sore wrist and a skinned knee builds character, right?

New partners at the train bridge for 300 squats and wall sits.  By now, you know the drill.

Mosey to the parking lot above the stairs for Circle of ABS.  Each pax calls out an AB exercise of 10 reps, then mosey around the buildings stopping on the stairs for 20 calf raises.  Rinse and repeat.

Head to the flag.
