YHC had the honor of closing out Green Acres’ month of OGs. There were some serious heavyweights who had come before so the task was daunting. At 5:25 when YHC arrived at the AO there were 5 or 6 PAX furiously lifting weights, coupons, and battle ropes. We made them put them away at 5:29 so we could get started and welcome Candy Cane and Deep Dish and kick off at 5:30 sharp. A cool morning meant we had to keep moving and so we did…

Warmup
SSH x50

The Thang
Partner up (size matters) as we mosey to the block pile. Everyone grab a cinderblock and mosey back towards the start. Circle up planked on your block. Merkin on your block and then side crawl(?) to the next block. Go all the way around the circle until you’re back at your block. Pick it up and mosey up to the school.

One partner runs a lap around the parking lot at the top of the school, the other partner stays back and does an exercise until he is relieved by the returning partner. The exercises were…
G – Ground Pounders
R – Rocky Balboas
E – Elf on the Shelf (Left)
E – Elf on the Shelf (Right)
N – Nolan Ryans with block

Repeato with the following exercises
N – Nolan Ryans with block
A – Al Gores with block
C – Curls
H – Hand Release Merkins
O – Overhead Press

Finish up with overhead presses while spelling out Adolphu(s). The S is silent.

Mosey back and drop off block. Go on a bear hunt. Partner one bear crawls one way in the parking lot, partner two runs the other way. When partner one meets partner two the runner picks up the bear and carries him back to the start. Repeat with partners switching roles.

RYAO back to AO.
