Where’s the Shower Curtain

Leave a comment

Shower Curtain was on Q, but no showed. The PAX stepped up

WARMUP: band camp led

THE THANG: rebound had a cardboard workout in his car. It was very arm heavy. Bells at one end and partners. Cumulative 120 reps of things at the far end. The bell exercises were AMRAP (and very arm focused). The AO isn’t called the Legory.

Band Camp led then for movement between two parking spaces. 10 swings, bear crawl, 10 cleans, bear crawl. Eventually that shifted to 5 man makers, lunge walk with a pass through.

Backdraft led us to the wall.
Step ups
Dips with the bell in the lap
Hip thrusts or big boys

Return to COT via a modified over head carry and indigenous peoples run

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read your newsletter

COT: yep

Hope Shower Curtain is alright
