BackBlast:

We were a day early celebrating FiA Alpha’s 4th birthday, but it’s a birthday season, not a day, right?!  And even though it was soggy, we spread out on opposite sides of the green with mats lengthwise for more room in the middle.  Everyone received 2 plastic plates and we were ready with our birthday songs.

For the songs with the word “birthday” in it, we stopped the exercises and did something special for each time the word was sung.  Every other song was a birthday song…  The favorite was the Kettlebell Swing with Murder Bunnies for “birthday”.  F3 does Murder Bunnies with concrete blocks, but we stacked the foam blocks for our version!!  For these, you reach out and put your blocks down far in front of you, keeping your hands on the blocks, and then hop your feet up to your blocks.  Keep going and you get Murder Bunnies.  Maybe next time we’ll use some weight…or maybe not!

The alternate songs were done in pairs with the pax across from each other on the green.  One would do 17 of the “counting” exercise (denoted by **) while the other did another exercise.  All of these were with the plates on hands or feet.  (We didn’t get to the last song, but I included it in case you want to try at home)
