07/16/2022 - Bee Hive - 12 Days of Christmas in July

Warm and humid July morning the Beehive was buzzing with Pax ready for the pain!! This was a version of a beatdown I saw early in my F3 days. It’s all about repeating and adding exercises until you are at 12 or until time runs out. It’s Saturday so we fit the whole thing in.

F3 core principles and disclaimer was given and excepted by all.

Warmup: Stretched neck, shoulders and legs. Jogged in place, moved to High Knees then Butt Kickers. Side lunges IC, Batwings to 10, huggers and trunk twists to 10 OYO. Mosey to the Football field.

The Thang: The Pax performed an exercise with a specified # of reps. Then jog to designated spot (about 30 yards) and back. The first exercise was repeated and another added. We continued until we reached all 12 exercises. Pax used cinder block coupons for some movements.
