hamilton Slam Ballz

Date: 2024-10-07
AO: hamilton
Q: Defiance
PAX: 2 percent, Booking, Flat Tire, Hobbyhorse, Popeye, Legacy FNGs: None
COUNT: 7

WARMUP: Stretching followed by some sprints
THE THANG: Tried out some new exercises with slam balls. Threw them, lifted them, and threw them at each other. Invented Thurpees – throw the ball, do a burpee. Pax alternated exercises while the two slam balls were in use. MARY: American hammers, Vups, and Merkins with the balls.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: hamilton will be regular time next Monday 10/14 despite the federal holiday. The grunt Saturday 11/9 convergence event at 0700 for workout + tour of war memorials.
COT: It’s good to experiment sometimes and see what works. For example, throwing weighted balls at each other in the dark didn’t work. But Mary Balls was effective. Fail fast.

thesandlot Dogeball strikes back

Date: 2024-10-05
AO: thesandlot
Q: citrus
PAX: Big Short, Lazlo, Legacy, 2 percent, Defiance, Lucius, Jenner, AI, Klinger, Coxswain, Popeye, Roadhouse, Corner Kick FNGs: None
COUNT: 14
WARMUP: SSH, IW, penalty burpees, hillbillies, arm circles, Michael Phelps, Moroccan night club, world’s worst stretch, world’s greatest stretch

THE THANG:
With a partner, lineup on the goal line, with each group having their own Dogeball (dodgeball). Each group does 3 laps of an exercise together,.

Along the way, the group can attempt to shorten their distance by having one partner throw their Dogeball to the other partner. If he catches, the group jogs to that point and resumes the exercise from there.

But, just like its namesake, Dogecoin, there are no guarantees in Dogeball. If the PAX dropped the Dogeball, the group got a 5 burpee penalty, AND had to return to the spot of the throw to complete their exercise. In the 2nd and 3rd round, there was an optional 4th Dogeball available as a “double or nothing”.

Switch partners each round.

3 rounds:

1. Inch worm ( no merkins (alternate partners)
2. Lt Dan
3. Crab walk

MARY: Flutter kicks, LBCs, WWIs, Nolan Ryans, tempo donkey kicks

ANNOUNCEMENTS: #thegrunt on 11/9; Old Rag on 10/26 (#backpacking); #pax-on-parade on 10/19

COT: Establish a lifetime habit of fitness and staying active for your 2.0s.
