The Kitchen Sink – 01FEB2023

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
We stretched a bit, some windmills, light jogging, tappy-taps, some SSH, you get the idea…

THE THANG:
Sandbags required. YHC had and recommended a 60lb, but no one was weighing anything…
– First it was a long, bagless loop around the parking lot/car loop with some stops to do things like Merkins, squats, and the like.
– Then we grabbed our sandbags and partnered up for a little catch me if you can from the flag to the top of Hubert Graham — 5 burpees while your partner farmer carried your bags, catch and switch
– At every manhole cover on the way down the hill (for 7 covers), do 5 manmakers
– On the way back up the hill, do 20 flutters (2-count) with press at each manhole cover
– Next round, 3 curls on the way down and up
– REPEAT as time allows… time didn’t allow…
– Back to flag for cool-down and Mary

MARY: No Chicks Allowed.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your newsletter.

How to quiet a group of talkers by Anchorman

Leave a comment

WARMUP:

Mosey up to pharmacy, plank for 6.

4 or 5 exercises in and the mumble chatter was becoming a bit distracting.

5 burpees oyo to calm the conversations beast only seemed to inflame it.

So we headed to the adjacent parking lot to do 10 decline merkins in one curb, bear crawl across parking lot to the opposite curl to do 9 incline merkins then crawl bear back to other side to do 8 declines etc etc

Exuberance replaced by grumbling.

THE THANG:

Run to top of Massey Street hill to parking lot to pair up for BOMBS…

Run to other end of parking lot while partner was knocking through a portion of 200 each…

Bomb Jacks
Overhead claps
Merkins
Big boy sit-ups
Squats

Run down the hill to COT

Hill repeat Monday

Leave a comment

At 0515, YHC told the PAX there is no warm up we were ready to roll and headed out toward Gold Hill Middle. It was supposed to be a mosey, but was more running.

At the first parking lot we counted off and gave a very bastardized disclaimer- basically modify as necessary and you should read the disclaimer on the website.
From there I explained what the workout was,;
25 merkins at the school, then head up the hill to the bank, do 25 Freddy Mercurys (4 count- like in cadence), then back to school and rinse/repeat until 0600.

Most got in 4-5 rounds and all got in at least 3.5 miles.

COT: lots of announcements and prayers – I was oxygen deprived so I don’t recall them at this point 🤦🏼‍♂️
