Leave a comment

WARMUP: 10 Moroccan nightclubs, 10 Windmills, 10 side straddle hops
THE THANG:

2 times through this stuff!

1. 50 Calf Raises then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
2. 50 Goblet Squats Sumo style then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
3. 50 KB Deadlifts then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
4. 50 LBC’s with KB then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
5. 50 KB Push-ups (25 L & R) then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
6. 50 Curls then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,
7. 50 Lat Push then 50+ yd-ish Mosey w/ KB,

“Rattle Snakes” were offered for the overachievers, although not many were actually done. “Rattle Snakes” are basically a plank where you jump your legs side to side. Probably has a different name, but since we were in the ao-snake-pit…

Slight modification on 2nd round, but all reps accounted for plus 50 KB swings.

MARY: Box cutters, American Hammers, Protractor, Hello Dolly’s

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Fastest 5k, represent for VuVu’s son!
