Chain Gang and Playing Cards

15 PAX posted, did their time, and got released from the sandbag chain gang workout

PAX: Baymax, Inspector, Garden State, Turnpike, Granola, Sunspot, Big Blue, Herbie, Square, The Mule, Fridge, Patches, 10AC, Magneto and Eagle(Q)

Warm-Up:
Various Streches
Arm Circles – Front – 15 IC
Arm Circles – Back – 15 IC
The Motivator

The Thang:
Half the PAX Split up and did the F3 Deck of Cards focusing on Proper Cadence Sequence. Man, why do Aces seem to always appear quicker in a workout deck then in a game of cards?

While half the PAX were playing with cards, the other half of the PAX walked the carabiner linked 40 pound, 50 pound, 50 pound, and 40-pound sandbags around the 1/2 mile loop of the park. We farmer carried, overhead carried, lunge walked and farmer carried our weighted coupon around the park.

The PAX did a switcheroo and repeated the process.

The PAX got back together and continued playing cards. Four PAX were pulled out and the sandbags were unlinked. The Four PAX each grabbed a sandbag, did a sandbag clean and press, then chucked their sandbag. Repeat for 100 yards and shoulder carried their sandbag to the start point. Continue playing cards and while everyone took their turn on the sandbag 100-yard fun.

Mary:
Duck Jousting – Fridge is still the champ!

MOLESKIN:
Great effort today guys! Time to sign-up for the next GROWRUCK!
