Back Blast – Red, White, and Boom

No cinder blocks needed for this all natural body weight Stallone/Rocky inspired bootcamp. Kicking it old school. After Tarde’s warming warm-o-rama the campers mosey’d to the track. Keeping KISS in mind, the QIC decided that it would be great to do a little four turn action. Run to turn 1 do 10 merkins; bear crawl to turn 2, do 20 squats. Run to turn 3, do 30 mountain climbers; crab walk to turn 4, do 40 LBCs. Still arguably the best three words in the gloom; rinse and repeat. Once the 2nd lap is complete, plank for the six by the “pull-up” bars.

Time to pair up. Partner 1 does 10 knee raises hanging from the “pull-up” bars while partner 2 does shoulder taps. Switch, rinse and repeat.

Mosey to sons of benches for continued pairs fun.

Partner 1 does Rocky Balboas while partner 2 runs to the yellow hand rails and does 10 reverse pull ups then runs up the stairs to relieve partner 1. Switch and once partner 1 has returned, rinse and repeat.

Next, partner 1 does dips on the benches while partner 2 runs the hand rails and does 10 big boy sit ups and returns via the stairs to relieve partner 1. You guessed it; switch and once partner 1 has returned, rinse and repeat.

From there we moseyed to the b-ball courts for our last round of partner fun. Partner 1 does the suicides while partner 2 does balls to the wall. You know it is coming; switch, then rinse and repeat.

The over the top crowd finally made it to the b-ball court for Mary.

Mary was LBCs, gas pumps (reverse crunch for the “technicals”), Cindy Crawfords, and merkin hammers.
