Tallawah

Leave a comment

🚨 🚨 🚨
Your Hump Day Gear workout is getting a major makeover!
As of 02/15/23 it will no longer be called SnakePit or at Catawba Ridge High. Moving closer to the west, we’ll be posting at WEP under the new name “TALLAWAH” (pronounced Ta-Lah-Wah).

Tallawah is a Jamaican patois word, derived from the English word “stalwart,” which means strong, powerful, tough. That’s why we get up to workout at 0515, choosing the harder thing. Be prepared to give your best and then some every Wednesday morning.

One more thing, it’s now going to be a gear bootcamp style of an AO. That means more bootcamp integration with the bells. So not only will we be getting stronger, we’ll also be getting faster.

Thank you!

BOSSmen Footrace

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH LSS tappy tap taps
THE THANG:
15 squats
12 snatch and press 6 each side or if you got one arm 12
9 burpees
Jog to corner and sprint back.
Repeat until 25 mins is up.

Last sprint was a good old fashioned footrace. Sasquatch proved his legs can overcome the air drag of his man sweater. Beakers uncle is Usain Bolt so he kept him within a few arms length running at half the cadence. YHC was close but not a contender and Spectre was right on my heels. Overall each man put out way more effort this morning than they would have individually and we are all accelerating.

MARY: we did Mary as we discussed
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: beaker took us out.
