Leave a comment

WARMUP: Jog around the parking lot followed by a few exercises.
THE THANG:
1min of each of the following:
Ground to overhead
Over the shoulder toss

SLOW asymmetrical farmers carry. With sand bag in one hand, we’ll walk slowly, together, around the parking lot loop switching hands as needed.

Partner up for a round of “catch me if you can” around the large drop-off loop:
Partner 1: Take both sand bags and walk/shuffle until Partner 2 catches you.
Partner 2: 3 burpees then catch Partner 1
Alternate until you complete the loop.

Perfect Merkins (slick): I followed the correction of the PAX and completed this in an 8ct cadence. We did 20…lovely.

3-Tier Suicides: Roughly 40yds and back, 60yds and back then 75yds and back. Every time you return, complete 10 Bent Over Rows

2-Tier Suicides: Like above, this time only 60yds and 75yds. Complete (10) 4ct Flutters upon your return each time.

Sand Bag carry (standard carry position) around the large loop with stops at the corners for:
1st Corner: 10 Dead Lifts

NMM
As men, we take our LUMPS. Work piles up. The honey-do list grows. Sometimes it can be daunting. But, we train for this. We don’t BOAST about how we’re handling the CRAP life throws at us. Instead, we face the challenges head-on with our heads high. We keep going, showing resilience and grit, even when things aren’t going our way. You may not think people notice what you do, but we do. We see the work you are doing to get better and your effort will make you stronger – ready for the next thing life hurls at you. Keep going, brother. You’re built for this.
Aye!
