Bushwood – Black Diamond(ish)

L-Train originally asked me to Q a black diamond because he was working on an EH that did a lot of gym work. Wanted to show a pretty fit FNG what an outdoor workout is like. FNG dropped out, but we pressed on anyway. Hardwood allegedly got his heart rate up to 200bpm….that’s pretty high buddy; might want to keep an eye on that.


We ran around a bit.

Mile buy-in at a pretty fast pace
SSH x39
IW x10
HW x10
Some downdog/updog…..black diamond or not, warmups matter
Kraken Burpees in cadence…..that’s a 16 count
Toy Soldiers

Run up to lot at the front of the school
Bear crawl through the lot to the stop sign
add a Kraken burpee at each island…there were 4 islands

Run down to end of the sidewalk
Mountain Climbers for the 6

Run on the by-pass until we could get to the sidewalk leading to the elementary school
Front lot of the school
Bear crawl through the lot to the stop sign
add a Kraken burpee at each island…there were 4 islands

Front of the elementary school
1 squat
lunge walk to next pillar
2 squats
lunge walk to next pillar
etc.
stopped at 10 for time
Run back to CRHS the way we came…traffic was heavier

Bear Crawl/Crawl Bear up and down the hill to the band practice field in a zig-zag for the 6

Run down to drainage hill…bear crawl down and through
BTTW – Shoulder taps

Run to edge where there were some support for hands (signs, fire hydrant, guard rail, etc.)
Called pistol squats in cadence, but gave an option to modify to regular squats….apparently YHC was the only one doing pistol squats. So, we wrapped that up.

Dying Cockroach
Hello Dolly

Run up the hill to COT
0600

What’s a black diamond to me, may not be a black diamond to someone else. But I felt we were challenged today. The real black diamonds for me are keeping my temper in check around my kids. I can bear crawl with you as far as you want an 0530, but I need to find more kind words with my family at 5:30pm.

Let’s not shy away from what are the real black diamonds in our lives.
