Coupons: No Prep: Just mark stations Style: Whole Group, Small Group, or OYO You can do this in any sized group or OYO. For any groups, call or have them call cadence (We did six count for the burpees. For whole group we had cadence calling rotating through pax in order of a line-up and count-off. Mark four stations. We used the sidewalk and streetlamps, but sports cones or anything will work. If the distance is short encourage sprinting. Four stations in a line, each with 12 reps, reduced by 2 each round until time runs out

Coupons: Yes Prep: None (except choosing reps) Style: Whole Group From the movie "Billy Madison," where Adam Sandler's character has to go through all 12 grades in less than a year. Reverse pyramid, each level includes the reps of the new exercise plus all the previous exercises. Each new pass through the grades is finished with a mosey or coupon carry. We did 180 meter runs, but you could do overhead carry, extended arm carry, farmer carry, etc. We also had the pax rotate through calling the exercise / cadence, each pax in the circle would get the next exercise, so with a group of six, each would be calling two of them. It's good leadership practice. TLDR: 1-run, 21-run, 321-run, 4321-run, etc. This format is also used for "The 12 Days of Christmas" beatdown Grade: 1 - Merkin 2 - Lunges HC 3- SYADS 4 - Bent Over Rows (each hand) 5 - Coupon jump ups (block jumps) 6 - Curls 7 - Goblet squats 8 - Big boy situps 9 - Coupon swings 10 - Bus drivers (4C - curl, then rotate coupon vertical to the right, then rotate vertical to the left) 11 - Thrusters (or squat thrusters but right after the burpees is murder) 12 - Burpees Coupons: Yes

We all have special talents, strengths, and weaknesses, but we can accomplish anything we want when we work with others as a team, combining strengths and shoring up shortcomings. Coupons: Yes
Prep: None Style: AMRAP OYO 40 - 60 seconds AMRAP of each of the following, followed by a cardio transition. Immediately transition to next exercise upon arrival of the six. Keep up the pace for all 12 evolutions with an optional 60 second break after the S. We had steps and did a sprint to them, ran up, did an honor burpee at the top, back down, then bear crawled back to the starting point. You could do SSHs, go up a hill, run a lap, do farmers carries, etc. Anything cardio will work. Adjust AMRAP time accordingly to general skill level and length of cardio transition.

Notes:
Coupons: Yes Required prep: High Structure: Stations I used low-profile cones to mark out a big circle, grouped the pax up, and had them start at different stations. Each time a station was completed, they ran one lap around the circle to the next station (even if the exercise was laps around the circle). Have pax do the workouts on the inside of the circle so they aren't in the running lane. If you don't have four-sided dice (I stole those from one of the 2.0's board games), you can do two coin-flips and have TT, TH, HT, HH as the four outcomes (like the red card in the picture). I did this workout for 21 guys and and for 3. With the large group we only made it through 1.5 circuits. They guys at that workout were slower and the full number (seven groups of three men) caused some traffic jams, especially with the coupons. The single group of three guys went much faster, finishing two circuits in 32 minutes. I would not recommend doing the stations individually. It's a lot easier to cheat and you lose the element of mutual accountability and camaraderie. I used coin flips, drawings from a bucket, and pulling playing deck cards. Other ideas are a doom dice (a large cardboard cube with workouts sharpied on the sides, or the Mudgear official workout deck. If all the pax bring their coupons, it's a great opportunity for some stations with exercises using two coupons, like farmer's carries, tower of power merkins, two handed rows or squats, renegade rows, frog merkins (one hand on each coupon, shoulder width) or bridge merkins (hands on one, feet on the other). |
