Today we met Dora’s obnoxious minx of a cousin, Thora.  Evidently, she hates counting and prefers the devious effects of time.

 

Warm-Up

  • SSH
  • Imperial Walkers
  • Arm Circles
  • Stretches
  • Pax Choice

 

Main Event

Mosey to parking lot and split into 3-man teams.  Today’s workout is a spin on the Menage a Dora.

 

This is a three-man twist on a traditional Dora.  Man #1 performs upper body exercise on one side of the parking lot.  Man #2 performs ab exercise on the opposite side of the parking lot (about 50-60 yards away).  Man #3 runs sprints between Man #1 and Man #2.

Man #1 and Man #2 each commence his respective exercise.  Man #3 starts at Man #1, sprints across to the Man #2, returns to his start point, and then sprints back across and relieves Man #2 and picks up his exercise (just like a typical Dora).  Man #2 then performs the same “across-back-across” sprint and relieves Man #1 and picks up his exercise.  Man #1 becomes the sprinter, and the routine continues.  However, unlike a typical Dora where we’re counting reps, instead for Thora we went for time (see below).

  • Round One: Merkins and LBCs (10 minutes)
  • Round Two: Hand-Release Merkins and WW2 (8 minutes)
  • Round Three: Overhead Claps and Hammers (6 minutes)
  • Round Four: Burpees and Flutterkicks (6+ minutes)

COT/BOM:

My son’s best friend’s parents were both recently diagnosed with cancer (within about two weeks of each other).    We are all on the clock, men.  Live, push, love, give, laugh, serve to the buzzer.
