It’s so muggy, it’s sweaty and heard to breathe… And the workout starts in a few minutes…
Seriously. It’s like a sauna and my original plan had to be adjusted because the Google Map of the AO isn’t accurate at the moment. Construction/progress has torn up the grass I wanted to use. Oh well… I’ll just be minute or two late. Which is good. Because then Cable Guy has more to give me crap about (like he needed any help there?)…
So I was 2 minutes late to my own Q. No, I don’t have a good excuse. Yes, it did all work out. As I am hustling from where I parked my car so I could set up all my coupons and cones, I met the Pax as they were rounding the corner, our fearless leader, Pusher (#Mantan), in the lead. I wave them down, and after I was given assurance that they had more or less properly disclaimed, we warmed up a little with some SSHs, IWs, Merkins, Windmills, etc., then we moseyed to The Thang…
Triple up, size doesn’t matter. 6 stations set around the parking lot/grassy area in the back of the Gander Mtn. lot. AMRAP for 30 minutes. After each station run a long lap around the lot.
Station 1: 25 Cinderblock Squats
Station 2: Hairburners with 50lb. sandbag (down and back or down and carry back)
Station 3: 25 Medicine ball slams
Station 4: 25 Cinderblock Curls
Station 5: 25 Plyo Merkins
Station 6: 25 Gator Merkins
Mosey back for a little Mary and COT…
NMM:
I may or may not have been just a couple of minutes late for the start. Google Maps isn’t the most reliable, and the locale I had planned on using was torn up for construction. I had to search quickly and find a new spot which was further away, and it threw off my game… Moral of the story? Same moral it always is. Plan ahead, leave extra time, ask for help if you need it. You’d think that I’d have this 100% figured out by now… Sadly, I still forget or get over-confident and then get burned.
Cable Guy didn’t pass gas once that I am aware of for a whole workout. Someone can correct me on this, but I think that’s the case. I think he may need to seek medical attention…
We covered close to 3 miles. So, yeah… it sucked. However, no partner carries, no bear crawls (my usual go-to’s).
Always a pleasure gents…
Helmet, out.
