With 75% chance of rain on this warm December Saturday,  the original Weinke got modified.  Instead of the usual Bunker location, let’s use the picnic shelter at the top of the hill near the track.  Though the rain didn’t get us, 3 PAX finished the workout dripping wet with sweat.  Here’s how it went down.

Warmup with The Yank bootcampers:  SSH, Hillbilly walkers (15xIC), Nolan Ryans (10xIC each arm).  Split groups; Bunker PAX haul coupons to the upper picnic area.

The Thang:

First things first, set up tunes on the bluetooth speaker.  This is becoming more efficient with less technology-fumbling.  Picnic tables were already conveniently positioned along the sides, so after scooting one a few feet over we started at one end of the shelter.

5 burpees, then lunge-walk to other side
10 hand-release merkins, then bear crawl to other side
15 coupon pull-overs, then lunge-walk to other side
20 leg lifts, then bear crawl to other side
25 coupon swings, then lunge-walk to other side
30 derkins, then bear crawl to other side
35 big boy situps, then coupon-carry to other side
40 rows, then coupon-carry to other side
45 flutter kicks (holding coupon)

Brief 10-count, then rinse and repeat with 5 reps added to all exercises.  Another 10-count, then Round 3 with original rep count.  Finished up just in time for a slow mosey to the flag with the bootcampers.

Lagniappe:  I appreciate the good mumblechatter from Doodles and Voodoo – I had to interrupt several times to call the next exercise!  We didn’t solve any the world’s problems, but we heard about quite a few of them.  It’s helpful to be able to share the struggles and challenges we’re facing as well as hear about the struggles of others.  It helps to put my own problems in perspective.  Thanks gentlemen for some hard rock-pushing!

Always a privilege to lead,
