Run Back to COT
My personal Favorite with the remaining time left….
EMOM  10 Burpees a minute on the minute….. (only got 9 minutes in)
 
The question of the day is why…why I still am doing this after 7 years when I first thought I’d only give it like 3 months.
 
And it really is because of all of the guys I’ve met and learned from. When I started the saying was if you want to run fast…run with faster people. And There are so many HIMS in our region that run so much faster than me. Not just actual literal running but accelerating at all phases of life. These are role models for us and a big reason why I keep coming out, and I keep pushing. Everyone reading this has in some way pushed me to be 1% better than I was yesterday.  Thank you guys! And see you all in the gloom!

Neese’s was almost the death of us

WARMUP: Yes, IW; HW; some yoga.
Introduced the reverse burpee (you go down on your 6, lay on your back, and then return to standing for a jump). Stagecoach busted his wrist and YHC was tired of seeing him modify.
THE THANG:
Found a wall
10 stepups (each leg)
10 derkins
10 bulgarian split squats (each leg)
10 irkins
Found another wall (it was stupid high)
10 stepups (single leg) this was dumb
10 derkins this was also dumb but not as much

found a moderatle parking lot
10 mike tysons
bear crawl
10 curb alberts
crawl bear
10 mike tysons
lunge walk
10 curb alberts
reverse lunge walk
10 mike tysons
burpee broad jump
(the sprinklers came on and YHC didn’t want a complete mutiny)
mosey back to the dry side for
10 curb alberts

Mosey back by the wall and hit it again

A 60lb sandball was at COT
One man did an over the shoulder lift
Everyone else held a squat down and raised up when the ball hit the ground. Return to the held squat for the next guy to do a lift. 15 guys….
Rinse and Repeat with Split Squats and a reverse burpee

NMM:It’s nice to be motivated to workout, but falling in love with the process of acceleration is even better. That can survive a waning motivation. Or maybe it just is motivation itself?

National Chipmunk Day

It was a beautiful day over at The Forge, you could feel the electricity in the air! It reminded me of The Electric City, shout out to The University of Scranton. Quick warmup and we were off!

Over to the creepy dim lit side walk behind the overgrown bushes for some wall work. Perfect spot if you want to scare people. We did some overhead claps and derkins to warm the PAX up.

Next stop was the benches for some step ups, dips, and incline merkins.

Now for the final destination we celebrated 2/20 – I heard something about national chipmunk day so we ran with it.

We did a latter workout with Indian runs. Two laps for 2 – 20 reps for 20….Get it….2/20. :grinning:

20 Lunges
20 Merkins
20 Flutters
20 Squats
20 CDDs

We ran two laps between each set.

Back to COT for Mary, prayers and praises.
