Our designated Q — Hustler — decided not to show up, so we made the best of it, and triple-teamed to lead this sports-themed workout.

Started with a few laps around the tennis court, followed by some SSH, weed pickers, copperhead squats, sun gods, and Michael Phelps.

Then, we had to put on our creative thinking caps.  We found 3 tennis balls and a “sock” ball, and Small World came up with the idea of Bocce Ball.  Somebody started and threw out the sock ball wherever he wanted, and then we all tried to get the closest to it with a roll/throw of our tennis ball.  The one who threw the sock ball called the mode of transportation from where we stood to the where the sock ball landed and also the type of exercise and number of reps.

Modes of transportation included (but were not limited to) the following:

• bear crawl
• crawl bear
• lunges
• Imperial Walkers
• inchworm merkin
• Bernie Sanders
• jogging

Exercises included (but were not limited to) the following:

• merkins
• copperhead merkins
• squats
• American hammers
• 6-inch legs lift hold
• Mike Tysons
• star jumps
• big boy situps

The winner was not required to do the exercise AND he was entitled to point his finger and laugh while the others completed their reps.  ToolTime has a pretty wicked cackle — should be perfect for Halloween next week.

All in all, it was a good workout and fun competing against each other in the modified Bocce Ball game.  As a matter of fact, we ran “over” time by a few minutes, since, as they say, “time flies when you’re having fun”!

Ended in COT.
