These days, we’re all longing for the past. Simpler times. And what could be simpler than a good old Board of Pain workout? I’m sure that was going to be your answer, and it happens that you’re in luck.

Of course we start with the mozi with the butt kickers, carioca x2, high knees, and nur. Then a COP with:

  • 20x SSH
  • 10x windmills
  • 10x strawberry pickers
  • 10x hillbilly walkers
  • 20x arm circles
  • 20x Michael Phelps

Now on to the Board of Pain. You know the routine. A total of 10 exercises on the Board. Do the first two, run a lap (about 250 yards). Get back, start at the top and do the first two, then the next two, then run. Rinse & repeat, and keep adding two at a time until you get to the point where you do the whole Board. Here it is:

  1. 30 LBCs
  2. 30 Mountain climbers
  3. 30 Plank jacks
  4. 30 Shoulder taps
  5. 20 Merkins
  6. 20 Freddie Mercury
  7. 20 Carolina drydocks
  8. 20 Lunges
  9. 10 Jack Webb
  10. 10 Captain Thor

(note: on the Jack Webb and Captain Thors, go straight to 10x merkins/big boy situps and 40x overhead claps/American hammers – no need to count up unless you really want to).
