Steel City— by the numbers

Leave a comment

Steel City Beatdown – By the numbers

5 burpees OYO – 5 Pirates World Series Championships
13 SSH IC – 26 total reps for Steeler HOF Rod Woodson
5 burpees OYO – 5 Penguins Stanley Cups
6 Windmills – 6 Steelers Super Bowl Championships

1 Burpee OYO – 1 Olympic Gold Medal for Kurt Angle (he did it with a broken neck)

Mosey to the hill by the fire station

Inclined PAIN workout. You would do 3 burpees at the bottom of the hill and then do an exercise, go back to the bottom of the hill 3 more burpees, and then move up the ladder completing all exercises. Everyone loved this. All the reps represented the numbers of different Pittsburgh sports legends.

Steel City by the numbers Cont.

87 Mountain Climbers – Sidney Crosby
75 LBC’s – Mean Joe Greene
66 Flutters – Mario Lemieux
43 – Calf Raises – Troy Polamalu
32 – SSH – Franco Harris
24 – Freddy Mercury’s – Barry Bonds
21 Merkins – Roberto Clemente
10 Squats – Ron Francis
8 BBS – Willie Stargell
7 HR Merkins- Ben Roethlisberger

Mosey back to COT. If you got through it…446 reps…the exact number of Bridges within the Steel City.

Thanks to all who posted and embraced the legacy of PGH Sports.
