With a deck of cards perform exercises as drawn for each of the following:

Hearts = Pushups
Diamonds = Crunches
Clubs = Squats
Spades = Burpees

Numbered cards are done for reps as numbered
Kings & Queens are 10 reps
Aces are 15 reps
Jokers & Jacks = 400m run

As soon as 1/2 the class is done with the card - we move on!
Rx is awarded to those who do all reps

-----------------------------------

"Lemon Style" Hit the Deck is an homage to the first time Lizz conducted this workout with classes back in 2009.  She knew that Jokers = 400 m runs.  What she didn't know was that Jacks aren't Jokers!

Message: Hello Neil, I just wanted to let you know I found your website kind of by accident but it turned out to be the best accident I've ever made. Before trying your workouts I dabbled in the [names redacted] type workouts. Though I felt excerted after those workouts, I always felt I was on the brink of injury. With your workouts I feel great, I feel it pays great attention to all aspects of health related physical fitness. By the way I live in Long Island NY, and I'm not the only person around that knows of your workouts...

Your friend on Long Island,

                                   Ryan M.
