DFQ!

YHC was greeted by a small but fierce team ready to attack the workout with enthusiasm in the humidity of HardNocs.  The message was based on Jumanji’s lead in the F3 Newsletter –  “We Don’t Quit in the Face of Obstacles” or in other words “We DFQ!” 

The Warmup:

• SSH 15X in cadence
• Arm circles back & forward 10X in cadence
• Michael Phelps 10X
• Toy Soldiers 10X in cadence
• Hillbillies 10X in cadence
• Down Dog into runner’s stretch to Cobra into Plank 30 seconds to Bear Crawl to curb and bear crawl back
• Run lap up and down the stairs, 5 Burpees OYO

The Thang:

• Tabata Circuit: (45 seconds max reps, 30 seconds rest/jog in place, PAX rotate to next exercise).    We played a Van Halen playlist to honor the recent passing of guitar aficionado Eddie Van Halen (RIP) as they were a big part of  YHC’s teen years!
