Slam Ball

Q: Black Lung

Name-o-rama: (9) High Pockets, Cutter, Korn, Piston, Malware, Nunchuck, Undertaker, Woodchuck, Black Lung

We start with an "explosive" warmup of low rep, high intensity merkins with flair, squat jumps, high knees, reverse high knees, ministry of funny walks (forward and backward). The 2nd period (hockey games have 3 periods, although that's completely unrelated) consisted of a ladder routine using the pillars in front of the Hibbet strip mall: alternating 1 merkin, then 2 big boys, 3 merkins, 4 big boys, etc... to 10. Then again with urkins and squats. We caught our breath with a message about perspective. From our perspective, our problems are big. But if we zoom out, we see how many people are in the world and that our problems are actually minute. To help visualize, if each of the 7 Billion people on Earth were 1 inch long, we would rap around the planet 4 times! If we were 1 millimeter long, we would stretch 4,300 miles across the US. For round 3, Undertaker found the hidden coupon: a 15lb slam ball. We invented various forms of passing the ball under a time limit, with a 5 burpee penalty if the ball hit the ground. We finished with a COT, wishing Piston well as he leaves next week for boot camp.
