This one was taken directly from Ha-Ha! (So don’t blame me when we can lift our arms tomorrow!!) Check out the pic for The Thang.
One of the FiA principles is to leave no one behind as we exercise – whether we are going from one exercise to the next, traveling around the site, or out at a social. This workout was a great way to stress that point since Tex just got her (last) cast and has to stay in one place.
For this workout, we did 40 of an exercise, traveled for 100 yards on the walkway between the steps and parking lot, then rinse/repeat. In the travel, we had to use our weights in different ways. And since we should always be working to improve and grow stronger, I brought 12 and 15 pound weights that we could use! (I’m thoughtful that way)
The Thang:
Tex was our stationary point at the bench. We would do our 40 reps, then 2 of us would travel with the associated weight carry for 50 yards and back (total of 100). The 3rd stayed with Tex and did a variation of the carry. We rotated that 3rd spot so we all got time with Tex! (I admit that we took out the 40 Wide Merkins/Pushups to do at the end if we had time and doggone if we didn’t have time! You just try 40 Diamond Merkins at home going down until your chest touches the mat each time and tell me if you would have wanted 40 Wides…)
COT:
From the FiA Principles on the Nation website (https://fianation.com/about-fia/)
No one is left behind. There is always someone watching the back so no one is lost or feels alone/discouraged/unsure.
