3 pax gathered in the morning gloom of the Epicenter for some 1st F that included a warm-up, a dice game, and a quick amrap. Fabio returned for his first bootcamp Q of 2017. Work was done, and it wasn’t all fun and games.
Conditions: clear skies, 60 degrees, wind at 10 mph, and the ground was “swampy.” Disclaimer given round the ole shovel flag.

The Thang: The Dice of Death (with Coupons)
Instructions: Pax rotate rolling a pair of dice. Take point total and call out exercise on Wienke (provided here): snake eyes – Pax choice curls or overhead press, 3 – Kettlebells, 4 – Blerkins, 5 – LBC’s, 6 – Air Squats, 7 – Freddy Mercury, 8 – Flutter Kicks, 9 – Monkey Humpers, 10 – Standing Front Presses, 11 – Imperial Walkers, 12 – Plank Jacks.
Round 1: rep count is 25. Round 2: rep count is 20. Round 3: rep count is 15 and so on until the rep count is 5. Then we worked back up the rep-count ladder with 10, 15, 20, and 25. One catch: if a Pax rolls the dice pair and “hits a double” (meaning both die show the same number), the corresponding exercise is done with a bonus rep-count of 50!
There were loads and loads of Freddy Mercurys and Flutter Kicks completed (as the numbers 7 and 8 are more statistically likely when rolling two dice again and again).
Grand Finale: quick AMRAP on the bleachers: 10 incline merkins, 10 dips, 10 double-step-ups per leg.
COUPON SHUFFLE, gather round shovel flag for COT: Count-O-Rama, Name-O-Rama, no FNG’s, Announcements, and Prayer Concerns. Ball-O-Man.
