10 Days to School

WARMUP: 20 SSH, 10 Hillbilly Walkers, 10 Goofballs
THE THANG:
Backblast – The Forge
Q: Jason
Workout: Ladder to 10
Distance: Just under 4 miles
Great work by everyone who showed up at The Forge this morning. The focus was simple: keep moving, build the volume, and embrace the cumulative fatigue.
We tackled a progressive ladder workout. After each round, we ran a lap before adding the next movement. Every round started back at the beginning of the ladder, so the reps steadily accumulated while the legs never got much of a break.
The Ladder

  • 1 Jump Squat
  • 2 Lunges
  • 3 Squats
  • 4 Burpees
  • 5 Merkins
  • 6 Big Boys
  • 7 LBCs
  • 8 Carolina Dry Docks
  • 9 Mountain Climbers
  • 10 Side-Straddle Hops (SSH)

Format

  • Round 1: 1 Jump Squat → Run a lap
  • Round 2: 1 Jump Squat + 2 Lunges → Run a lap
  • Round 3: 1 Jump Squat + 2 Lunges + 3 Squats → Run a lap
  • Continued adding one exercise each round until completing all 10 movements.

By the end, we had logged 10 laps for just under 4 miles, while knocking out a full-body beatdown that challenged the legs, core, chest, shoulders, and lungs.
Totals Completed

  • 10 Jump Squats
  • 18 Lunges
  • 24 Squats
  • 28 Burpees
  • 30 Merkins
  • 30 Big Boys
  • 28 LBCs
  • 24 Carolina Dry Docks
  • 18 Mountain Climbers
  • 10 SSH

Message of the Day (MOTD):
Big goals aren’t accomplished in one giant leap—they’re built one step, one rep, and one lap at a time. Consistency compounds. Keep showing up, trust the process, and before long you’ll look back and realize you’ve gone farther than you ever thought possible.
Thanks to all the HIMs who pushed the pace, encouraged one another, and made The Forge stronger this morning.
It was an honor to lead. Aye!
