Trick or Treat at the Hive

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Extremely brief and nearly devoid of cadence calling due to the Q having a mostly lost voice.
THE THANG:
The AO was set up with different exercises posted on lampposts lableled as either Tricks or Treats. Workout consisted of 8 rounds. Each round began with a 1 minute AMRAP of a specified exercise. Based on the reps achieved by the group approximately half of the HIM were directed to receive a treat for a high effort number of reps, the other half were directed to select the Trick. The Tricks were consistently worse than the treats but all were KB exercises. In some cases high rep counts would not be conducive to good form and a more random tool was used to split the group such as age (odd/even) or Birth Month (odd even).

Tricks
Manmakers
15 Snatches
15 Clean & Press
Turkish Get ups
Thrusters
Murder Bunnies to next “house”
2 minute plank
Uhauls

Treats
Halos
Goblet Squats
Calf Raises
LBC
Lawnmowers
OH Press
Side Leans
Tri Press

1min AMRAP exercises
Kettle Bell Swings (reps)
Man Makers (random)
Chest Press (reps)
Good Mornings (random)
Pullovers (random)
Deadlifts (random)
Hay-Balers (random)
Curls (reps)

Old & Grizzled

Leave a comment

Instead of giving a long disclaimer, I made the mistake of saying this was an old and grizzled group of vets. It pretty much went downhill from there. But in my defense we did average about 50% brace rate (knees, elbows. ankles, etc).

Anyway, short mosey around the lot then circle up for some warmups. Hillbilly walkers, 4 count squats (crowd favorite), mtn climbers, peter parkers, parker peters, MNCs.

Relocate over to near pull up bars. Partner up for lazy dora. 100 merkins: p1 does 10 while p2 holds plank. Switch back and forth until 100. 200 LBCs: p1 does 20 LBCs while P2 does 6″ leg hold. Switch back and forth until 200. 300 squats: p1 does 30 squats while p2 holds Al Gore. Switch back and forth until 300. 400 SSHs: p1 does 40 SSHs while p2 hangs on the pull up bar. Switch back and forth until 400.

I had more planned at front of school but based on time audibled to stay close to start point. Stay with same partner for partner burpees. P1 does burpee, then P2 does burpee, keep swapping back and forth up to 25 total then run to stop sign and back. 4 rounds (100 total). Finished up with 20 big boys and 20 flutters.

We may be old and grizzled but it was a really fun morning. Lots of mumble-chatter seemed to make time fly by. I appreciate all the old and grizzled as well as newer less grizzled guys we have in this group. Thanks Cake Boss for the opportunity to lead!

Site swap p1

Leave a comment

Pledge of allegiance. Then down to corner of Main St and Academy. Pretty simple routine today: 10 HR merkins at Main/Academy. Run up Main to Main/160, 10 jump squats. Run to 160/Monroe White, 10 HR merkins. Run to Withers/Watson, 10 jump squats. Run back to start.
Each time you get back to Main/Academy, run the loop in the opposite direction with same exercises.

I think most PAX got between 4 and 5 loops in. Tesla might’ve done 10. It was nice to do something different this morning!

Haunted Ruck for a good cause

Leave a comment

🎃 Haunted Ruck II 🎃 date has been setup for Wednesday October 25th at 6:30pm;  this year I teamed up with Skeletons for St Jude to help alleviate high costs of treatments for families that are carrying the burden of pediatric cancer and the expenses.
We’ll meet at Model A at 6:30pm and promptly launch, ruck to my house and back, roughly 4 miles total. Expect 1:15 minutes or so… M’s 💃, 2.0’s 🧛‍♂️ and 4.0’s 🐕‍🦺 are welcome. We’ll mingle back at Model A for refreshments… YES, there’s a patch 👻 (Bonus points for wearing a costume 🦹‍♂️)

Come ruck/walk for a great cause.

Hope to see you there
