NMM
The humidity was as high as the spirits this morning as we endured Wisdom by Walker and a couple solid bar jokes. I hope today’s workout was the hardest thing we do today, but most likely it won’t be. Maybe it’s a past due Honey-do list or a hard conversation with the M. When whatever that thing is manifests today or this week, I encourage you to attack it with the same vigor you attacked today’s beatdown. Do the hard thing today instead of letting it eat at you for weeks. You got this!

Prison Break

Several pax were delayed this morning due to the police presence along Springfield Parkway. Warm-ups were performed in the parking to make sure an FNG did not arrive, dressed in orange or black and white stripes. Typical exercises – SSHs, Imperial Walkers, Wind Mills, Plank Stretches, Peter Parkers, Parker Peters.
Next, we moseyed to the end of the road at the back of the school. It took a couple minute to explain, The Traverse. Partner exercise – Partner 1 runs to the next light pole, 5 squats, back to partner 2, both run to the next light pole, partner 2 runs next light pole, 5 squats, back to partner 1. Continue pattern back to the school.
Once back to the school, we did a series of exercise combinations in the parking lot. Lunge walk, squats; Reverse lunge walk, Calf raises; Bear crawl, merkins; Crawl bear, CCDs; Crab walk, LBCs and Burpees broad jumps.
For the remaining time, we did two rounds of step ups, derkins, and dips followed by a lap around the parking lot. With two minutes left, we had time to burpee broad jump to the flag.

Great job men!
