Moseyed to the basketball courts while PAX jogged in place the Q explained our stations using two courts and two basketballs. We broke into a group of 4 and a group of 3 in the other.
A) one person shot 10 free throws while others did one of these stations (sideline jumps; step ups; lunges). After each person shot we did defensive slides across the lane and back for each miss, then we rotated stations.
B) round two we shot 5 three pointers and made slight modifications on the three stations. After each person shot their 3’s we ran lines for each miss.
C) moseyed to tennis courts where we kept same groups and used two courts; PAX planked while stations were explained; one person served 10 serves while others did one of three ab stations (BBS/Box Cutters; Gas Pumpers/Heel Touches; LBC/Palm the Sky). After each person served, for each served missed we all had to jog around that many tennis courts.
D) moseyed to FB field and grabbed coupons and did farmers walk to opposite side of FB field. In same groups we had two garbage cans set up as our targets with a FB for each group. Each person threw 5 attempts from 10 yards and three attempts from 20 yards trying to hit garbage can; meanwhile your group members were doing these three station exercises (coupon shoulder press/swings; coupon upright rows/bent-over rows; coupon bench press/curls). The number of missed throws equal the number of burpees each pax must do later today (we ran out of time). Returned coupons to their home, picked up all equipment, and moseyed back to base camp.
Remember to knock out your burpees today.
We learned that Shillito baskets are much like carnival baskets / rims—very unforgiving. You hit the rim, you miss the shot (automatic)!
As we watch March Madness games remember pressure makes everything more difficult, so don’t blow a gasket when you see a player choke or miss a shot you think they should make. We missed plenty!
Also, get outside and play with your family (spouse, children, or friends). Spring is here, right?
