Mosey to grab cinderblocks

THE THANG:

Originally, the intention was to have a group working with 2 kettlebells and another group working with cinderblocks. Since there were 12 kettlebells and 6 PAX, we were all able to work together.

PAX were encouraged to grab 2 heavy bells and rucks or sandbags to get some serious strength training in.

Tricep extensions
Shoulder presses
