Holloween fun!!!

Lexington, SC / By / October 31, 2019 /

Holloween fun!!!  What is that?  Halloween at the Hollow, of course.

I went in today with two plans.  Plan A was going to be under the breezeway in case it was raining.  Plan B was for if it wasn’t raining and would keep us off the wet ground.  The rain had subsided so Plan B it was.  I had assembled a Halloween friendly playlist to give us some tunes to listen to.

We had 4 for SL and 1 for RL – and 16 total PAX for BC.  Sky was cloudy, ground was wet, we were ready.

  • 1 minute warning, intro, disclaimer, no FNGs, prayer

Head to the block pile, snag one, and head to the courtyard.  We lined the blocks up then circled up for some warmup exercises…

  • 10x MICHEAL PHELPS IC
  • 10x IMPERIAL WALKERS IC
  • 10x AIR SQUATS IC
  • 10x MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS IC

We got back to the blocks and formed teams of 2 for the following groups of exercises.  This took us to the 45 minute mark.  Recovery between the rounds was FRANKENSTIEN WALKING.  The Halloween-ish songs below keep us entertained.

Round 1 – Partner A performs “two block” exercises while Partner B runs the courtyard and back.  Flapjack until these amount of team reps were completed:

  • 80x BLOCK MERKINs (left hand on ground while right on block, merkin, both hands on blocks, merkin, left hand on block while right on ground, merkin, keep going back-n-forth)
  • 160x BLOCK SHRUGs
  • 240x BLOCK DIPs

Round 2 – Partner A performs “one block” exercises while Partner B carries one block down and back.  Flapjack until these amount of team reps were completed:

  • 60x BLOCK THRUSTERs
  • 120x BLOCK CFTGs
  • 180x BLOCK BENT OVER ROWs

Round 3 – Partner A performs “zero block” exercises while Partner B Farmer Carries two blocks down and back.  Flapjack until these amount of team reps were completed:

  • 40x BURPEEs
  • 80x BBSUs
  • 120x AIR SQUATs

Blocks were returned and we finished with the Count-o-rama, Name-o-rama, Announcement, Prayer.
