For the month of thanksgiving and a new playlist of thanksgiving songs, I have a turkey inspired themed workout for November.

The Thang: Mosey over to the spot for circuit work spelling out the word T-U-R-K-E-Y

One minute each and then switch- we did two complete circuits

T- Toe taps on cone

U- Up and down agility ladder

R- Run up and down steps

K- Kicks near stairs

E- Elevated homers on steps

Y- Y merkins or hand-release merkins making Y shape

The PAX were asked if they preferred turkey or sides. The group was divided based on their choices into team turkey and team sides for the next rounds of team competitions.

Pass the turkey- in a low squat hold weighted turkey balls were passed back and forth over a fence. Turkey had to touch the wall with a full swing up and over the fence and a catch to the partner.

Turkey/Run to the store/Ricky Bobby with the turkey/Indian/Indigenous People run- We had 2 lines and passed a ball down the line to a destination. Team sides won the first round and team turkey won the second round.

Over to ball work- 15 overhead claps with the butterballs and rinsed and repeated until shoulders were well done

Food fight- Every good family affair ends with a fight over masks or politics so we had a little food fight with tennis balls. Turkey was first to take aim, hitting the target resulted in a burpee but missing the target was also a burpee. After one minute, team sides took their revenge on team turkey.

Mary- We did 2 sets of American hammers with the balls 15 IC, 10 V-ups with the ball, 15 X factors with the ball on each side and then put the balls away and finished with 15 dying cockroaches. At the end of Thanksgiving the cockroaches get the leftovers.

COT: Remember Shark Tank’s friend who just passed away from Covid (David was his name) . Also remember to keep the FUN in your DYSFUNCTIONAL family time. Put away the politics and fights over masks and vaccines for a little while and just enjoy a meal together if you can and be thankful for all the blessings you enjoy with good health and people who care about you.
