Cheers’ Block (and Gout friendly) Workout

It’s been about a month since YHC led this great group of men. We had an outstanding showing considering the humidity (in October) along with a new AO launching just down the road. Thanks for allowing me to do a block, slowsy, workout. YHC is still dealing with the aftermath of a gout flare up and running is still a process.

Conditions: 75 degrees and unbelievably humid

Disclaimer
Prayer

Warmup:
Slowsy to block pile, then a slowsy Indian Run with the blocks around soccer field.

Workout:
PAX gather in a circle to conduct a team building exercise. Each PAX is conducting the same exercise while one PAX is doing a different exercise. After their count is up, the PAX doing the solo exercise joins in with the team, while the PAX next to him starts the solo exercise. Once each PAX in the circle does a solo, we recover and start a new round.

Round 1:
Team exercise: Tricep extension until failure, then 30 second rest, then more tricep extensions and repeat.

Solo exercise: Merkins x 10

Round 2:
Team: Curls for the curls until failure, repeat after 30 second rest

Solo: Rows x 10

Round 3:
Team: Big Boy sit-ups until failure, repeat after 30 second rest

Solo: Flutter kicks x 10 each leg
