My wife had been participating in a workout called Burn Bootcamp and one day I discovered these small strips of paper that had exercises on them: Burpees x 10. Push Ups x 15. Etc. YHC filed the idea away for a future Q…and that future arrived on Tuesday, February 19, 2019, at The Big Dance. 13 PAX gathered in the gloom for growth and glory. 3 rucked and talked about life during an 0500 EC.

THE THANG
YHC announced the “Magic Bag of Tricks” (hat tip to Knope who added a head lamp, which gave the flourescent yellow bag a “glowing aura”). PAX instructed to pick a strip, announce it to the PAX, perform the exercise, then complete a movement to the next court before passing the bag. Hard to capture all the specifics, but generally our time included (in no particular order):
15 Parker Peters x 4
15 Burpees OYO x 3 (“how did this get back in the bag?”)
10 EKG Merkins x 2 (“WTF”)
10 Travolta Merkins x 2 (“these suck”)
10 Burpees OYO
7 Burpees OYO (“I promise there’s more diversity in this bag”)
30 Air Squats
Bat Wings (OH Claps, Seal Claps, LBACs forward/back, Moroccan Night Club, Cherry Pickers x 5)
Agassis (suicide sprints for all courts)
10 Tuck Jumps OYO
30 Johnny Dramas IC
15 Booyah Merkins
15 Chilly Jacks IC
15 Werkins
25 Smurf Jacks IC
Traveling intervals: High Knees, Broad Jumps x 2, Alligator Crawl, Bear Crawl, Crab Walk, Lunge Walk, Carioca Right and Left (for balance!), Sprint 4 Courts, Fellowship jog 2 courts and others forgotten, but felt in the moment.
