Giving a visitor a tour of the AO
All Highlands BackblastsFebruary 21st, 2026
AO: f3highlands
Q: Poutine
PAX: Barnstormer, Pinkman, Dune, PineTar, Rocket Man
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
WARMUP: Poutine usual by the tennis court. Did high knees and butt kickers on way there.
THE THANG: moseyed to tennis court for ball toss. Ball needs to clear first court in the air and land and stay in court #2. Ball in the big rectangle is 20 merkins, in small doubles rectangle 5 merkins, in red area 10 burpees. @Pinkman’s ball rolled all the way to court 3 so that was 10 burpees and 20 merkins. All 6 took turns tossing the ball and YHC and Rocket Man balls landed in the 5 merkins zones.
Moseyed to bus area for 45 seconds of caveman run.
Moseyed to loading dock for 3 rounds of jump squat followed by a jump at the loading dock and do 10 gas pumpers. Round 2 was 15 gas pumpers and then 20 gas pumpers. If someone passes gas, we stopped at 10. Barnstormer came to the rescue and we stopped at 10.
Moseyed to front of the school for power circle. Powerplank, power squats and power roll x10 reps and run around the island between each exercise.
Moseyed toward day care and stopped at the iron rails. 3 rounds of incline merkins, pull ups and dips for 10,8,6 reps each round. Moseyed toward guardrail on top of 485 with bunny hops across the street and side shuffle. 15 monkey hunkers on top of 485, 10 decline merkins, 15 more humoers. Side shuffle back with more bunny hops across the street.
Moseyed toward concrete platform for 2 rounds of 10 reps of squat troopers and 1/2 burpee. Bunny hop across the street and wosey and mosey toward the shortcut toward the park. Stopped for shoulder taps, mountain climbers, plank jack x10 reps and then repeat for 8 reps. PineTar suggested we stop and don’t do 2rd round with 6 reps. He didn’t say it but his body posture suggested it.
Carioca back toward tennis court and stopped by yellow gate. 10 decline CDD and 10 Rocky balboa. Back toward tennis court for 2 rounds of Ocho Cinco = figure 8 around 2 tennis courts and 5 burpees between each lap.
Mosey back toward parking lot for 20 calf raises on the stairs with 10 burpee penalty for anyone who farts in the stairs.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Rocket Man visited with us since he is attending conference at UNCC. 57 years old from Charleston.
COT: Prayers for Pinkman son’s family still battling the flu. Prayers for those battling mental illnesses or physical illnesses. Prayers for cooler heads in our community, in our nation, and around the world. Let the Olympic be what the world should all be about. Competitors but not enemies.
It was a pleasure leading this group!
