It is what it is!

As is typical of YHC, I wanted to do some ladder work at the Ballroom to keep the Pax moving today so I researched old backblasts for ideas. While not original, I love reading the old backblasts to see the Pax, the mumblechatter and the work being done. I stumbled on a few good ideas from Fogerty and Cake Boss but settled on a Bonsai from 2022 that included over 700 reps which I thought was appropriate for our 1st sub 30 degree day this Fall.

WARMUP:
After a thorough disclaimer, we commenced to Indian Run to the track with the 6 doing 5 merkins and then sprinting to the lead.

We circled up in the track/football field parking lot for the following:

SSH x 30
Cherry Pickers x 10
Seal Jacks x 20
Windmills x 10
Plank Jacks x 20
IW x 15

We moseyed to find a gate that was open so that YHC could deploy the Weinke.

THE THANG:

Line up on the goal line
Run to the 10 yard line, do 1 burpee
Run to the 20 yard line, do 2 burpees
Ladder up then down to other goal line

Run, Do The Thing, Repeat

After a prompting from Farmers Only (On Q elsewhere today), I decided to recycle a workout from last year.
WARMUP: No
THE THANG:
Run to a stop, do exercises, run to the next, etc…
The first 3 stops had 3 exercises at each stop.
The next 3 stops had 2 exercises at each stop.
The final 4 stops had 1 exercise at each stop.
The rep count was always 10 which in some cases, meant 5 each leg.
Total distance covered was ~3.6m.
MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: All the same + the formation of a BRR 2026 Slack Channel with more comm’s coming from Pusher.
COT: Oh absolutely. Strong.
