With Christmas behind us, it was time to re-gift the “Christmas of Days 12” routine. YHC had the Q at CAT today and wanted to re-use the weinke we did a few weeks ago at The Hollow. Its a good routine that can be taken to different AOs – but it needed a different name. So it was renamed today to “12 Squares”. Not for physical squares, but for the square numbers (12×12, 11×11, etc.).
- 1 second warning (we got a headstart since it was cold), no FNGs, disclaimer, quick prayer
Take a step back to enlarge the circle and warmup with…
- 12x SSHs IC
- 12x IWs IC
- 12x Airquats IC
Go grab a block and meet at the planter box behind home base. YHC turned on some 80s tunes. Since the portable speaker batteries were dead, the phone had to do.
- 12 Squares (descending ladder as below)
