Neese’s was almost the death of us

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Yes, IW; HW; some yoga.
Introduced the reverse burpee (you go down on your 6, lay on your back, and then return to standing for a jump). Stagecoach busted his wrist and YHC was tired of seeing him modify.
THE THANG:
Found a wall
10 stepups (each leg)
10 derkins
10 bulgarian split squats (each leg)
10 irkins
Found another wall (it was stupid high)
10 stepups (single leg) this was dumb
10 derkins this was also dumb but not as much

found a moderatle parking lot
10 mike tysons
bear crawl
10 curb alberts
crawl bear
10 mike tysons
lunge walk
10 curb alberts
reverse lunge walk
10 mike tysons
burpee broad jump
(the sprinklers came on and YHC didn’t want a complete mutiny)
mosey back to the dry side for
10 curb alberts

Mosey back by the wall and hit it again

A 60lb sandball was at COT
One man did an over the shoulder lift
Everyone else held a squat down and raised up when the ball hit the ground. Return to the held squat for the next guy to do a lift. 15 guys….
Rinse and Repeat with Split Squats and a reverse burpee

NMM:It’s nice to be motivated to workout, but falling in love with the process of acceleration is even better. That can survive a waning motivation. Or maybe it just is motivation itself?

Don’t worry, stats are intact.

Backblasts are rarely read, and arguably aren’t serving the purpose they once did. Is that good? Bad? Neutral? They do serve a purpose, though, and so I will do it. Sort of.
