Plankton (or ton of planks)

Weather was perfect for a good sweat …

7 PAX showed up for a beatdown which proved to be fun and challenging

Disclaimer was short since we had no FNG’s but we went over the:

C. omplimentary

O. utdoors

R. otating fashion

S. TUDS

 

Off for a Mosey which included the usual high knees, butt kickers, karaoke and NUR

Finished at the Tower and discussed that since today was the 26th of the month (which would play a factor later in the beatdown) it was important for me since in 15 months I can retire. But enough about me.

3. LOVE PLANK  to the tune of “Cupid Shuffle” — similar to electric slide

Warm ups come into play here … for entire song

Hold Plank position and to the beat do your 4 to the right … 4 to the left.. 4 kick backs .and then mountain climbers … rinse and repeat 3 minutes feels like for ever. Some had more rhythm than others … OBVIOUSLY

5. TubThumpees

We all get knocked down in life and we all need to get right back up

So as we listen to the entire song by Chumbawumba and you know it … in the irish accent …”I get knocked down but I get up again” we simulated getting knocked down and getting right back up by doing Burpee’s … in between verses SSH’ and Squats waitng for more Burpees … yes like Thunderstruck but only 26 Burpees with this song

Run tower again … ending right at 0600hours
