WARMUP: mosey around for a little and then SSH, windmill, imperial walker, hillbilly walker, cherry pickers, Moroccan nightclub, merkins, mountain climbers, honeymooner, and downward dog… stretching them calfs.
THE THANG: Start in the band parking lot – LBCs every 10 yards with the quantity matching the yardage – 10 LBCs, bear crawl to 20, 20 LBCs, etc. We did flutters after 50 – 40 flutters, bear crawl to 30, 30 LBCs, etc… we went to the benches – dips, inclined merkins, and step ups (2 sets). Mosey to cinder blocks – curls, shoulder press, bench press with flutters. Run down hill and back. Rinse and repeat 3 times. Using 4 speed bumps, we ran to each one increasing our count of mountain climbers – 10, 20, 30, 40. Mosey back to COT for stretching.
MARY: i don’t know if this is Mary but ended with airborne hip exercises and some stretching.

I told you there was an awning

Leave a comment

It was a dark and stormy morning and all the pax of the Fort made their decisions, the red pill or the blue pill.

Most fartsacked.

YHC was prepared for the elements and taylored a workout accordingly. We first went and saved a Cindy from the rain and took her up to the awning at NaFo’s bus drop off. Then, the music was set (Octane Workouts) and the cards were shuffled.

Deck if cards where drawn and reps were done.
:heart: = overhead press
:clubs: = curl
:spades: = squat with block
:diamonds:= Merkin
:black_joker:= 10 burpees (there were 4 in the deck)

After starting with a bunch of :diamonds: we knew it was going to get spicy at the end with :heart:.

There were also lots of spectators this morning as the basketball, football and track teams were going somewhere or doing something. I’m pretty sure they thought us old men were crazy.

Finished with some Marry and took Cindy back home.

Rain and lightning doesn’t have to stop you. Like they say, it’s only bad weather if you have bad gear, or don’t use your resources 😉

COT: Rumbling Bald asked for a challenging workout, hopefully this delivered.

I struggle to push myself with an AMRAP style IronPAX workout like Thang 1. Usually I get bored and my motivation wanes after round 3. So, I switched it up and called the reps. This was to keep me motivated as much as the PAX.

It was worth the drive

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Olaf and YHC arrived to a lot of stretching and to Rumbling dressed in his 20 degree attire. It was almost 50 degrees outside but I guess he has the southern blood. Warmup consisted of: 1/4 mile jog or so, SSH, low slow squat, very low squat hold, couple hamstring stretches, merkins, mountain climbers, and off we went.
THE THANG: arrived at pull up bars. Instruction was 7s with bars being the top and the bottom of the hill down by the school being bottom.
Top of hill / bars: the set was, 1 pull up, 1 leg lift or knees to chest while hanging on bar, drop and do 1 burpee. That’s 1.
Bottom of hill: set was 1 lunge each side, 1 jump squat. That’s 1.
When done, pick up the 6.

Next we stayed in the same area but grabbed a Cindy. Still did 7s at the top and bottom of hill.
Top: squat thruster with block
Bottom: 4 count flutter
When done, Cindy hold over head.
MARY: yes, focus on core with abs for a plank hold, hammers, v-up. Some back with Superman and pull the cord.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Luka fast 5
COT: yes, good stuff here!
