11/28/2020 - the-grind - Atomic Push-ups + PAX Choice

The Thang

The Thang begins right here at the swings. A very Dora-ish feel. Pick a partner. One will run to the concrete drain structure while the other stays and does push-ups. ATOMIC push-ups. Feet in the swing. Push-up. Before bending your elbows again, bend your knees to your chest and back out. It’s like a burpee without the jump. What started as 200 push-ups for the pair turned into 150. And what started as Atomic push-ups, turned into regular push-ups. And then into knee push-ups for some. We all were pushing hard.

Once the partners hit 150, time to move to the front trail for the tournament of exercises.

Each of the PAX is called upon to pick between two exercises. The exercise not chosen will remain for the next PAX selection. Partner up again. While one perform the moving exercise, the other is running down the trail to various markers (depending on speed of the moving exercise) and back. Once back, the pair switch places. The chosen exercises were:

Duck walks
Walking Lunges
Bear Crawl
Squat shuffle
Inch Worm

The exercise NOT chosen – Crab Walk. YHC is not sure if that makes it the winner or the loser, but there’s a much longer list that will show up soon.
