Day 3 of the Pumpkin takeover of Circle City.

We kept it simple with a few circuits focusing on keeping the heart rate up, without running.

Warmarama:
Side Shuffle Hop (20 IC)
Willie Mays Hayes (10 tempo)
Hillbillies (10 IC)
Good Mornings (10 six count)
Bush Whackers (10 IC)
Seal Claps (IC)

Circuit 1 (3 rounds, 1 minute rest between each round)
20 Side shuffle hop (10 IC)
10 squat thursters (no merkin burpee)
10 tysons merkins
10 alt bird dogs – plank if possible, table top if not

Circuit 2 (3 rounds, 1 minute rest between each round)
20 Side shuffle hop (10 IC)
10 in and out squats (pop squats – start with legs straight and feet close together, hop and spread legs apart and squat after landing. Then hop back up and bring feet back together, legs straight).
10 walkouts (inch worm, no merkin, just to plank position)
10 mountain climbers (IC)
10 burpees (on the last burpee of round 3, we did a breakdance burpee, which adds a kick through to the right after the merkin, then another merkin, then a kick through to the left, then a third merkin, and back up to complete).

Circuit 3 (only one round of two exercises due to remaining time)
10 alternating bear crawl holds to superman planks (in bear crawl hold, move right hand out in front of you, move left foot back, then left hand out, right foot back. Bring right foot back in, left hand back in, left foot back in, right hand back in to return to bear crawl hold).
10 alternating toe taps – in high plank position, raise hips up into a pike position, and reach back with left hand to touch right foot/ankle. Return hand and body to plank position. Repeat with right hand reaching back for left foot/ankle. 5 each side.

Mary was also a circuit, 2 rounds, 1 minute rest.
20 alternating seated heel touches (seated, legs out, slight lean back, reach forward with right hand to touch left ankle, return to starting position, then reach out with left hand to touch right ankle and return to start)
10 knee to chest (reverse crunch)
10 leg raises
20 flutter kicks (10 IC)
10 homer to marge.

A minute of stretching to close us out.

COT:
The third principle mentioned was Peer Led. To me this means we are all equals. Everyone has the opportunity to lead a workout, lead an AO, be on the SLT. And again, thinking about this in our personal lives, we should be seeking those opportunities not just for ourselves, but encouraging our kids, our coworkers, our partners, our community members, to step up and lead in areas they are passionate about, interested in, or will make a positive impact in.
