How do you feel when other people ask you for help? It’s a good feeling and mostly you’re honored they came to you. So, why is it so hard for you to ask someone else for help when you need it?

Brought a BOP to the Kitchen Sink.
WARMUP: Not enough time for a standard warmup. Warmup was reviewing the list of exercises on the BOP as there were some combo exercises , PAX performed 2-3 reps to ensure they understood and to practice good form. The latter probably faded towards the end of our time together.
THE THANG:
Normal BOP format – Transport route with a mode of transportation ( most of the time this is simply running, not at the Kitchen Sink ), complete the listed exercise, and then repeat until finished or time is called. No one finished so maybe some adjustments can be made if brought out again in the future.
Transport Area was approx. 15 yards long in the upper parking lot.
Mode of Transportation: Overhead Backward Toss, walk to your SB and perform 1 ManMaker, toss it again, 2 Man Makers, repeat until the end of the 15 yard area ( avg. 4 tosses in this direction ). To come back PAX were asked to alternate Rotational Side Tosses, walk to your bag and perform 1 ManMaker, alternate sides and toss again, 2 ManMakers, repeat until you reach the finish line ( avg. 3 tosses in this direction ).
BOP Excercises: All rep counts were 50 ( total ) of each exercise
1. SB Swings
2. Alt Shoulder OH Press
3. Sumo Squat w/ High Pull
4. BigBoySitups
5. Thrusters
6. Anti-Rotational Plank Pulls w/ Perter Parkers
7. Straight Lower Leg Lifts w/ a Hello Dolly
8. Alt Single Leg Deadlifts w/ Bent Over Row
9. Alt. Forward Lunge w/ WoodChop
10. V-Ups
The kings made it to exercise #7.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel serve, trash pickup, Cannoli Run

Still trying to catch up on my sleep, I was late for my Q on Sunday. The group had already launched, so I had two choices when I arrived: go left or right. I went right which turned out to be wrong. Shuffled down to WEP to catch up to the group. No dice, back to COT, climbed the stairs overlooking downtown trying to locate the group. In the distance, I saw a blinking light. I quickly shuffled to catch up to them.
Crystal Lake had things under control by taking over for my misstep. He continued the Q with a backwards walk up the hill and we continue the ruck around the post office and back to COT.
Thankful for the group and the leaders who step up when needed.
14 Bootcampers showed up (3 more for 6 @ 6) for the 4th annual AMRAP 4 AUTISM. YHC was humbled to lead this event again and thankful to all who’ve donated and those who showed up for the workout!
WARMUP: A lap around the park with a few stops along the way for the following services.
– 131 SSH – 1 in 31 children in the US are diagnosed with autism
– 60 squats – CDC estimates $60K per year of extra cost to raise a child with autism.
– 36 LBC – Two years ago the diagnosis rate was 1 in 36
THE THANG: YHC had a trailer full of Cindy’s and was ready for whoever showed! After the warmup I explained the following rules of engagement:
1. 36 min AMRAP
2. Partner count
3. 1 round = all 5 exercises
4. All exercises complete before moving to next round
5. Hands never leave the block. Autistic people never get to remove autism from their lives. For this 36 min we will not move our hands from the block.
Enough rules. Time to work!
1. 54 man makers
2. 54 frog squats
3. 54 yard fair carry with both blocks
4. 54 bent over rows
5. 54 BBBS
Finished with a last man standing sprint race with Stone Cold beating out Slapshot by a hair!
