Leave a comment

Kept ’em moving.
Used a pretty standard warm up:
SSH
IW
HW
Merkins – slooooow cadence
Some yoga

Stopped for pull-ups (Print Shop)
Stopped for wall pull-ups (Springs office building)

Did some unaided pigeon lunges

Made it to the WEP hill for 7s
Burpees and Bombjacks
Reverse bear crawl up the hill
Reverse lunge down the hill

This was hard. Dark Helmet bat flipped

Stopped for Bulgarian Split Squats (Pike Electric)

NMM:
Asked guys during the workout what their biggest fears were. Among the answers were: not leaving a legacy for our family, recurrence of disease, mental health issues in our kids.

Love being in a space where we can work on being high impact men and share what is authentically on our hearts

WARMUP: started with a mosey around the parking lot. Stopped for some SSH, merkins, squats, mountain climbers, and a little back and hip stretching. Made our way over to grab some cindy’s.
THE THANG: Once we had our new toys, we went to the hill for 11s. Shoulder presses at the top with cindy and bottom of the hill hand release merkins. Pax that finished early did chest presses or picked up Pax and finished with them.

Next we took our cindy friend to the pull up bars for work. 7s was the game with 1 pull-up and 6 man makers…down to 6 pull ups and 1 man maker.
MARY: made our way to COT for Mary on steroids…1 hammer, 4 flutters; 2 hammers, 8 flutters…made our way to 5 hammers and 20 flutters before the crying started. Then it was 3 burpees and round the horn ab callouts.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots in the newsletter
COT: patience, schools, families in general.
