Do You Suffer in Silence?

WARMUP:
– Moroccan Night clubs
– Low slow squats
– Imperial blocker

Gear up and head to amphitheater. Partner workout. All gear needs to get to the top of the amphitheater. Only one partner can carry at a time. Non-carrying partner must be completing exercises while partner is carrying. Once partner 1 gets to the top, he calls for his partner to bring something up the hill while he begins the exercises at the top. Once the second partner gets to the top, he begins to complete exercises while partner 1 heads back down to start empty handed. Then partner 1 calls for partner 2 to move, and he begins to exercise until he gets to remaining gear. Repeat.
Bottom exercises: goblet squat w/bell or block, calf raises w/gear
Top exercises: 2-hand upright row w/gear, calf raises w/gear

BOP Kitchen Sink Style

Brought a BOP to the Kitchen Sink.

WARMUP: Not enough time for a standard warmup. Warmup was reviewing the list of exercises on the BOP as there were some combo exercises , PAX performed 2-3 reps to ensure they understood and to practice good form. The latter probably faded towards the end of our time together.

THE THANG:
Normal BOP format – Transport route with a mode of transportation ( most of the time this is simply running, not at the Kitchen Sink ), complete the listed exercise, and then repeat until finished or time is called. No one finished so maybe some adjustments can be made if brought out again in the future.

Transport Area was approx. 15 yards long in the upper parking lot.
Mode of Transportation: Overhead Backward Toss, walk to your SB and perform 1 ManMaker, toss it again, 2 Man Makers, repeat until the end of the 15 yard area ( avg. 4 tosses in this direction ). To come back PAX were asked to alternate Rotational Side Tosses, walk to your bag and perform 1 ManMaker, alternate sides and toss again, 2 ManMakers, repeat until you reach the finish line ( avg. 3 tosses in this direction ).
BOP Excercises: All rep counts were 50 ( total ) of each exercise
1. SB Swings
2. Alt Shoulder OH Press
3. Sumo Squat w/ High Pull
4. BigBoySitups
5. Thrusters
6. Anti-Rotational Plank Pulls w/ Perter Parkers
7. Straight Lower Leg Lifts w/ a Hello Dolly
8. Alt Single Leg Deadlifts w/ Bent Over Row
9. Alt. Forward Lunge w/ WoodChop
10. V-Ups

The kings made it to exercise #7.

Sht, I am going to be late for my Q

Still trying to catch up on my sleep, I was late for my Q on Sunday. The group had already launched, so I had two choices when I arrived: go left or right. I went right which turned out to be wrong. Shuffled down to WEP to catch up to the group. No dice, back to COT, climbed the stairs overlooking downtown trying to locate the group. In the distance, I saw a blinking light. I quickly shuffled to catch up to them.
Crystal Lake had things under control by taking over for my misstep. He continued the Q with a backwards walk up the hill and we continue the ruck around the post office and back to COT.
Thankful for the group and the leaders who step up when needed.
