The Rope-A-Dope Circuit: 

Walk to the band practice field for the circuit. YHC grabbed a few ideas from a BC several weeks ago with Rocking Chair to come up with this circuit. With an hour-long BC, the timing worked out perfect to finish up the entire 7 rounds. Mumble chatter was minimum during the middle of the workout once everyone figured out the routine so this is a keeper. Note to self:  Remember to have every station occupied before beginning.

Station 1: “Timer Station” Farmers carry two blocks to the far cone. With each rotation, YHC added another 5-10 paces to the distance. Thanks to Bionic’s antics, the final round was the entire length of the sidewalk on the practice field.
