My personal Favorite with the remaining time left….
EMOM  10 Burpees a minute on the minute….. (only got 9 minutes in)
 
The question of the day is why…why I still am doing this after 7 years when I first thought I’d only give it like 3 months.
 
And it really is because of all of the guys I’ve met and learned from. When I started the saying was if you want to run fast…run with faster people. And There are so many HIMS in our region that run so much faster than me. Not just actual literal running but accelerating at all phases of life. These are role models for us and a big reason why I keep coming out, and I keep pushing. Everyone reading this has in some way pushed me to be 1% better than I was yesterday.  Thank you guys! And see you all in the gloom!

Title loading…

WARMUP: produce pickers, windmills, imp walkers, plank/down and up dog stretching, Peter Parker’s, all in cadence
THE THANG: we moseyed to the back parking lot and started at the first island of the top row. We progressed up the row, stopping at each island to do a set of exercises and the moseyed to the next island. Once we reached the end of the row, we moved to the next row and made our way back

The exercises were called in an accumulator fashion. First island was Carolina dry docks

Second was ccd and merkins
Third was ccd, merkins, and adding big bois
Fourth added American hammers
Reaching the fifth island added flutters
The sixth added monkey humpers
And the seventh added jump squats

The rep count for the first pass through this garden of bliss was 5

The second row we did 10 of all of it

The third row we did 15 of everything

We didn’t quite finish row 3, but we got in the work

Once the mumble chatter hit that magical point where the complaints started to drip into the conversation, I shared that my first idea for this morning was way worse and consisted of basically spending the 45 mins bear crawling around the parking lot, and when you needed a rest, you could take that rest while you did LBCs. This would have been way less enjoyable, and thankfully we were all spared this terrible idea

MARY: we barely made it back to cot on time
