The BackBlast:

Football season is here and training camp has started. What better way to bring in the season than a little football training camp beat down in the gloom! It was wet, unseasonably cold, but the 7 PAX worked hard.

Warm-up

  • Side Straddle Hops (25)
  • Arm Circles (20)
  • Circle Arms (20)
  • Merkins (10)

Long Mosey to Football Field Field (around playground and volleyball courts)

1st Quarter – Football Field – Bear Brawl!

You’ve heard of Bear Crawl – This is Bear “Brawl”!! Straight from the Exicon, the intent was to re-enact the fun of  driving a blocking sled! Everyone pairs up. First PAX gets in Bear Crawl position and second PAX gets in front of him. Bear Crawl 10 yards, while partner provides resistance. Trash talk / pep talks were accepted and encouraged. 100 Yards down the field.

We finished the first quarter by moving back down the field as a group doing different exercises in 10 yard increments. High knees, lunges, duck walk, karaoke, reverse run. Every stop included 5 Merkins.

2nd Quarter – Footwork

All PAX start in Plank. Course was set-up with two sets of ladders (for footwork) and two low ropes to crawl under. PAX completed the course and ended up back in Plank. We completed this course twice.

3rd Quarter – Up Downs

Remembering the drill that gave everyone nightmares as a kid, all PAX spread out and followed Q’s lead. In two sets of two minute increments, we started chopping feet. When Q called “down”, everyone would drop and immediately get back up again. If Q pointed left or right, all PAX would shift feet to that direction. Occasionally, Q would throw in some Merkins when down.

Mosey over to soccer field.

4th Quarter – Tug-a-War (Best of 5)

PAX were split into two groups. Since we had an odd number, Q switched teams. We held a good old fashioned Tug of War. The ground was wet, and traction was difficult.

Mosey back to flag.

Postgame – Short MOM

Quick set of 15 Freddie Mercury, 15 Dollys, 15 Rosalitas, 20 American Hammers.

Finish with COT
