We've done this before, and I promised we'd revisit it...I know Christmas is in the past. But something about rising again... Easter... bunnies and eggs, I'm not sure how it all fits together. Just do the workout.




“12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS/Easter”

1 Farmer Carry (length of bay) -Change this to a Sled Drag is weather permits
2 dips
3 chest to deck burpees
4 pull-ups (or jumping pull ups)
5 Sit ups
6 push-ups
7 squats
8 Walking lunges (each step = 1)
9 box jumps
10 wall balls
11 kettlebell swings (review the video at the end)
12 Deadlifts

This workout is done just like the song….Round 1 = 1 Sled Drag, Round 2 = 2 Dips and 1 sled drag, Round 3 = 3 burpees, 2 dips and a sled drag ….etc. Go until all 12 rounds are complete.

Farmer Carry: 40-50llbs.  Deadlifts -review technique without weight.pick a weight. Last we used was 95-135#. Consider stagger starting to allow all to go in the order.

Finish with the Banana Rock x 30 / Wide Knee combo x 40
Complete 3 sets.
From Dylan:
'Water is good, yeahh.'

Spring is Here!

Cardo: -weather dependant… if not, see alternative below
Sled Pull -45llbs, Team pull.

58: One member on sled, 3 running support, leave from rear bay, around to front. Member on sled does a U-turn and returns to rear while the rest of the team completes the circle through the bay to meet at the rear lot. If you don’t arrive at the same time, keep moving while you wait for the rest of the team. For an extra challenge run the hose tower during one of your recovery laps when you are not pulling.

57: Same as 58, but all can run together around entire hall. For extra challenge on a recovery lap add the stairs to the Cpt office or add a sprint along the long side of the station, recovery pace back to the group.
