2.29.2020 – Leap Day Festivities

by F3Banks

It was another sunny, but cold start at AO Mastodon. With Noodles having to man the home front, YHC had to step up and come up with a Q to do both Noodles and Leap Day Proud. Six faithful PAX (Archive, Captain Crunch, Katniss, Shiplap, TBTF, Banks) showed up for a morning that was no longer gloomy!

Warm-O-Rama:

With it being leap day and all, YHC wanted to make sure all PAX were properly loosened up for what was for sure to be a jumping adventure!

  • 7x Motivators
  • 15x Tin Soldiers IC
  • 15x Mountain Man Poopers IC
  • 25x Calf Raises IC
  • 25x Squats
  • 15x Merkins IC

Thang #1:

We started off jogging the Archive mile and made multiple stops along the way.

  • Stop 1 – 10x Pull ups
  • Stop 2 – 25x Frog Jumps
  • Stop 3 – 10x Bropees (Burpee, but give a high five at the top!)
  • Stop 4 – 25x Squat Jacks
  • Stop 5 – 10x Power Hand Release Merkin (Merkin pushing your upper body off the ground as high as possible)
  • Stop 6 – Chilly Broad Jumps (PAX Plank while other PAX broad jump over them Indian Run style)
  • Stop 7 – 10x Pull ups
  • Stop 8 – Broad Jump Burpees (Went from 1 light post to the next)
  • Stop 9 – 15x Star Jumps
  • Stop 10 – 10x Pop up Merkins (Power Merkin pushing up to get hands and feet off the ground at the same time)
  • Stop 11 – Coupons
    • 25x overhead press jacks (Jumping Jack lifting coupon overhead each time)
    • Bolt 45’s

Thang #2: The Race

The PAX broke up into 2 teams, one of 3, one of 2 and performed leap frog’s across the tennis courts, completed a total of 25 Crunchy Frog and 25 Merkins Per PAX, and then leap frogged back to the start. The intention was to race multiple times, but the first one was so exhausting YHC called an audible and started a round robin Q

Thang #3: Round Robin Q

I know I am going to forget something here, but this is what I recall:

  • 7x Welsh Dragons
  • 25x Pickle Pointers
  • 15x W Situps
  • 25x Bicycles IC
  • 15x BBS
  • 15x LBC
  • 1 Round Guantanamo
  • 100 100’s
  • 7,000 J Lo’s (Captain Crunch is a beast on these, I vote we change the name… I honestly blacked out somewhere in here)
  • 25x Superman Raises
  • 100 Mountain Climbers in low plank

COR/NOR/COT:

It was a great Leap Day, and the group agreed that Noodles would approve. Prayers for Noodles and his family, Praise for Archive’s good news, and prayers for all of those who could not be with us.
