Zipper Deconstructed Burpees

WARMUP:
Run up to old Hardee’s parking lot. 10 SSH

THE THANG:
Zipper. For every road we headed east on, we did 10 squats at the start, 10 merkins when we crossed Springs, and 10 bomb jacks at the end. For the west-bound trip we did burpees when we crossed Springs (1, then 2, then 3, then 4). We were movin’ this morning. 3 pax got in 4+ miles.

Got back to COT in time to make one sprint up Massey.

MARY:

We ended just a shade after 6am, and LongDuck wanted a refund of the extra few seconds we went over. The check is in the mail.

Great work done by all. FunHouse, thanks for the opportunity to serve.

A brick workout broke out in the midst of a Shield Lock discussion

WARMUP: Took a lap around the COT parking lot performing karaoke, buttkickers, and highknees. Circled up close to my vehicle because we needed to grab some bricks. But, before each man grabbed his source of pain we performed 10xSSHinCadence, 10xWMinCadence, 10xCPsinCadence, 10xMNCsinCadence, and 10xMerkinsinCadence. Short mosey to the vehicle, popped open the tailgate, and everybody grabbed some bricks.
THE THANG: COT parking lot is marked as a football field. Started at the goal line and lunged walk to the 50yard line. Every time PAX went down into their lunge they were asked to perform a lateral raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10 yards and executed 10 Burpees.

Next, we moseyed to a nearby grassy area. Time for a Jack Web of pain. 1 Merkin – 4 OCs w/ bricks. We definitely felt the pain by the time we made it to 10 Merkins – 40 OCs w/ bricks.

Moseyed back to the 50yard line. Ask the PAX to reverse lunge walk back to the goal line. Every time the PAX went down in to their lunge they performed a front raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10yards to perform 10 BombJacks with the bricks.

Didn’t need to travel far for the next Jack Web of pain. PAX circled up and we started with 1 Squat – 4 LowSquatPulses. While pulsing PAX were asked to hold their bricks in a front raised position. Legs & shoulders were burning by the time we made it to 10 Squats – 40 LowSquatPulses. A lot of funny commentary regarding everyone’s pulsing technique and pulsing speed ( apparently I’m a slow pulser ).

Last, but not least, asked the PAX to lie down on their bellies for some Superman Poses. We held each pose for a 10 count by YHC ( apparently, I’m also a slow counter, blame it on my Southern upbringing ). 1st pose was arms straight out with bricks in hand and legs together, 2nd pose was arms in field goal position and legs spread slightly apart, 3rd pose was arms in airplane position with legs spread shoulder width apart, and 4th pose was arms in parachute position with legs spread wide apart. Performed 2 sets of each pose.
MARY: Had time for 15xAlternating Single Leg V-Ups and 30x Touch your toes crunches, of course, all exercises performed with bricks.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter serve tonight, the upcoming Jager CSAUP ( can’t wait for this one ), Rock Region’s 10 year anniversary, and a few others that I’ve failed to remember.
