BHAG at the Hive

Leave a comment

YHC was making up for a missed Q two weeks ago due to sickness. As I was reviewing previous backblasts, I came up with a Big Hairy Audacious Goal for the workout to circle the entire FMHS while carrying the KB with pain stations along the way. I hadn’t seen it done so that was the plan.

Weather was perfect. Felt like an early Fall and time for college football.

WARMUP:

SSH x 10
Windmills x 10
Merkins x 10
Arm Circles x 10

THE THANG:

With the BHAG of circling the school, which is approximately 1.5 miles, we moseyed stopping (4) times for the following:

21 KB swings
18 Upright rows
15 Goblet squats
12 Curls
9 Tricep extensions
6 Manmakers

MARY:

Finished at the end with a circuit of the following:

LBCs
Flutters

WARMUP:
SSH
Windmill
Merkins
Peter Parker’s

THE THANG:
Do Overs

I created the MXC – Most Extreme Elimination Challenge. Form teams of 3. Split work among the team. Complete Groups I and II separately. In between sets in the group, do the mode of transportation before the next set.
After Groups I and II are complete, farmer carry bell to the top of Bob Jones Stadium road and back

Group I
Mode of transport: Bear Crawl to cones and back
5 – Manmakers
10 – Curls
15 – Goblet Squats
20 – Bentover Rows
25 – Chess Press on 6
20 – Renegade Rows (1x)
15 – Flutters, Bell High (2x)
10 – Tris
5 – Manmakers

Group II
Mode of transport: run block around parking lot
20 reps
1. Deadlift
2. Shoulder Press
3. Cleans (1x)
4. Swings
5. Lunges
6. Snatches

Farmer Carry to top of hill and back

After challenge was complete, I asked teams for time. 15-20 minutes was average.

I gave the team a “do over” and the challenge was to be repeated but faster.

COT: You were given a second chance. How will you use? What will you do better? Get a faster time. what bad event happened to you: layoff, parenting, divorce. What will you do differently next time?

Improvements: I would shorten the bear crawl distance and bell carry distance.

Music: The Killers – Hot Fuss

All PAX start together on one end of the parking lot, called it quits after the 1st PAX traveled the entire lot. HarryCarry was King!!!

Swinging Richards at the Hive

Leave a comment

WARMUP: It was cold so we started with a 5 minute mosey to warm up. Mixed in some high knees, butt kickers, and karaoke along the way.
Ended back up at COT. Running portion of the workout was completed. Needed to warm up our bells so we circled up and performed the following: CherryPickersx5inCadence, WindMillsx5inCadence, SSHx12inCadence, Figure8sx12OYO, SSHx10inCadence, 10 KB Swings OYO, SSHx8inCadence, 8 KB Snatches, SSHx6inCadence, 6 DeadLifttoCurltoPress w/ KB.

Now we were ready to swing!

THE THANG: Stayed in the COT area for our first round with
RichardWebb – Exercise #1: 1-10 – DeadLifttoCurltoPress w/KB & Exercise #2: 4-40 – KB Swings

The PAX needed a break from all of the swinging, so we decided to meet up with Dora.

Single Dora #1 – Partner #1 Exercise: Side Lunges w/ KB – 100 reps, MOT for partner #2 = Murder Bunny out, Rifle Carry back from the posts at COT to the first pole down the sidewalk.

After our experience with Dora left us wanting more, we decided to pay Richard Webb another visit since he showed us a swinging good time at the beginning of the workout!

Richard Webb #2: Exercise #1: 1-10 – Alt KB Snatches ( count right hand only ) & Exercise #2: 4-40 – BentOverRows

We had to cut our 2nd experience with RW short ( managed to make it to reps 8 – 32 ).due to time. If we had more time we would have paid Dora another visit for the following:

Single Dora #2 – Partner #1 Exercise: Figure8s – 100 reps, Partner #2 MOT = Bear Crawl out, Crawl Bear back from the posts at COT to the first pole down the sidewalk.

Alas, we were done, arms were smoked, and legs were saved for D2DB10k tomorrow! Thanks to Richard Webb and Dora for showing us a swinging good time!

MARY: NO TIME
