Cardio & A Little Failure

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Run to the bottom of the first hill on Hubert Graham.
Wind Mills, Low Slow Squats, More Wind Mills
10 Burpees
THE THANG:
NUR 1/2 way back up the hill
Fixed Leg Lunges x 10ea leg
Run back down for 100 Calf Raises
NUR 1/2 way back up
Dips on the guardrail until failure. BTW, Senator took charity on the rest of us and stopped once we failed but he had some left. So, as a group, we did more.
Run around the back of the school to the parking lot on the far right side.
Bear crawl from island to island with 10 Diamond Merkins every other parking space line.
Mike Tysons on the curb until failure.
Crawl bear back to the starting point with 10 Mountain Climbers every other line.
Sprint to the entrance of the playground, 5 Burpees, sprint back. As I mentioned to the PAX, this is where I almost splashed, at my own Q.
LBC’s to failure.
This is where I had a moment of transparency with the PAX. You see, if I were here by myself, I would have absolutely quit on myself and not done what I had written down. I told the PAX what was written and with that spoken, we did it and it wasn’t that bad. We sprinted (or ran) back to the playground entrance.
Sucking wind, we did a long set of heels to Heaven but the legs never came down.
Run to the front lot for a set of suicides with a few Burpees at the end for good measure.

MARY: Performed throughout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2DB…quit delaying and sign up. Tell your friends, too.
COT: It happened.
