Partner Plate Carrying Puzzle
One athlete instructs while the other athlete carries plates. Only the instructor athlete may speak/strategize. The goal is to get all of the plates stacked at the other end of the gym in the same order – heaviest on bottom, lightest on top. We’ll have four cones set up an equal distance apart. Stack the plates from heaviest to lightest, 45, 25, 15, 10, 5, 2.5, on the first circle. The goal is to move all the plates to the end by only moving one plate at a time. A heavier plate may never be placed on top of a lighter plate. Plates cannot be ‘switched’ while stacked. Only one plate may be carried at a time. Get the plates to one end, then switch the instructor and moving athlete and get them all back as fast as you can!
