6 for a bootcamp and 2 for a run at the Ricky Bobby this morning.  Blocks were involved and I don’t mean Lincoln Logs.  Here’s what I remember…

The Thang:

  • 10 x SSH (IC)

  • 10 x Elwoods (IC)
  • 10 x Hillbilly Walkers (IC)
  • 10 x Dying Cockroaches (IC)
  • 10 x Mike Tysons (IC)

Runners left for some neighborhood hills.  Bootcampers stopped by the Footmobile for a cinder block to carry along.  The Site Q did the honors, and we all ran off and left him, down to the church house where the events would commence.

We started with some core work

  • 10 x Pretzel Crunches L (IC)
  • 10 x Pretzel Crunches R (IC)
  • 10 x Double Crunches (IC)
  • 10 x American Hammers (IC)
  • 10 x Toe Touches (IC)

Onto the main event

    • Murder Bunny the length of the walkway
    • 10 x Overhead Presses (OYO)
    • Murder Bunny back
    • 10 x Overhead Presses (OYO)
    • Find someone to take your place
  • PAX without blocks
    • 5 x Box Jumps on the front steps of the church (OYO)

    • Mosey back to the steps
    • 5 x Box Jumps on the front steps of the church (OYO)
    • Mosey to the other end of the circle driveway
    • 5 x Burpees (OYO)
    • Repeato until it’s your turn with the block or until everyone has had a turn

Round 2 with the blocks

  • PAX with block
    • Hold block straight out in front of you and carry it the length of the walkway
    • 5 x Elf on a Shelf L (OYO)
      • Think a disco version of a squat thruster… squat and twist the block to your left, then rise and press the block overhead and to your right
    • Straight arm carry back
    • 5 x Elf on a Shelf R (OYO)
    • Find someone to take your place
  • PAX without blocks

    • 10 x Squats (OYO)
    • Mosey back to the steps
    • 10 x Dips on the front steps of the church (OYO)
    • Mosey to the other end of the circle driveway
    • 10 x Squats (OYO)
    • Repeato until it’s your turn with the block or until everyone has had a turn

Round 2 with the blocks was tough.  Tricycle made it look easy.

One last round of core work while we’ve got the grass

  • 10 x Pretzel Crunches L (IC)
  • 10 x Pretzel Crunches R (IC)
  • 10 x Double Crunches (IC)
  • 10 x American Hammers (IC)
  • 10 x Toe Touches (IC)

YHC and Orangeman split duties bringing the block back.  Once we got back, we had time for

  • 5 x Burpees (OYO)

Just because

And that’s a wrap.

It’d been a while since I Q’d at the Ricky Bobby.  Glad I had this opportunity.  Enjoyed it.
