Plank>>>>>Superman
REST - 1 MINUTE
Side shuffle>>>>>>Bear crawl

ENJOY!

Seriously?......

OK, so since the kids have gone back to school I've got to get back on track with making sure that I update the blog more efficiently.  But lately I've had  really wacky relations lately with my computer and internet and blah, blah, blah!!!  So, in the meantime I'll update you on all the happenings and continue to post and give you the "life changing" information that's been coming so far :).

WOD 8/31/10 -
Played a really fun game of "Name Tag" - which consists of squatting and naming something (a color, a football team, beer, etc.) in order to remain safe during the game.  The campers had a good time with this one yesterday. 
The workout (Four Corners) consisted of
-30yrd sprint
-sumo squats
-hindu pushups
-lunges with a kick

Something for Nothing

Just the sound of that sounds good to me... to receive something for nothing.  It's like walking into the grocery store (Sam's Club specifically) on a Saturday morning and learning that not only are they giving out samples, but they are giving the really good ones.  You know, the ones where they cook up those little sandwhich samples and they give you like half!  Or if the worker is in a good mood, she might just let you take a whole one.  That is like .....ahhhhh!  I love getting something for nothing.
BUT that's not this journey!
Waking up before the sun or busting out a bearcrawl and some jump squats after a hard day's work in the 100 degree heat, deserves nothing short of a great big.....SOMETHING. Like what, I could promise you something tangible,like a massage or a gift card somewhere, but the results that you will see, or begin to see is something much more valuable than that.  My friend you have embarked upon taking your life back.  Taking your health back.  Taking your fitness back.  And that is something.  And you certainly know by now that aren't doing something for nothing.

"Having a Ball" and 2 Minutes of Heaven

WOD Tuesday 8/24

We split up into teams and had a competition using a tennis ball.

This game would have been more appealing and probably a lot more fun if it had the OTHER "2 Minutes of Heaven", but who's counting minutes.

WOD - 2 Minutes of Heaven
Campers are divided into 4-5 separate groups.  Each group begins with a different exercise.  Exercises are as follows:
Slam Ball or Medicin Ball throws
Mountain Climbers
Jump Rope
5-sec Jump Squats
Sprint

Each of these exercises are performed for 2 minutes with 1 minute rest in between.

Hmmmmm.....Good times, good times : )

Week 3 - Lets get it!

The beginning of Week 3 and it's been intense.  I can say that we can send up prayers and thanks to the universe for the cooler weather that we're experiencing.  Ahhhhhhhhh.  It's been so nice! 

Monday WOD -
Team Game " You Decide"
Each Team has to obtain a total of 50 points by completing the following:
5 pointers - 25 Burpees, 60 Up/Downs or Double Suicide
3 pointers - Mountain Climbers, Inchworm or
2 pointers - 25 step ups,
1 pointers - 20 JJ, 20 PU and 15 lunges

Will you make it to 50?.........YOU DECIDE
