Moderately Moderate

It was a beautiful morning in The Fort and the PAX were moderately fired up for a moderate beatdown.

We did a quick warmup and we were off.

We moseyed over to the bridge for a thing I like to call the bridge of moderate pain.

11’s: 10 squats, run across the bridge, 1 merkin…and so on and so forth.
Circled up for some Mary
Dora: Partner 1 – 100 CDDs, 200 calf raises, 300 LBCs. Partner 2 – run over to the bleachers and run two flights.

Run back over the bridge for some bench work.
10 Step Ups
10 Dips
10 Incline Merkins

Back to COT for Mary, announcements, prayers, & praises.

From there we ran to the second cone for dips, squats, flutters and Mike Tyson’s. Back to start then to cone three for CDD, bomb jacks, American hammers, SSH. Ran to start then on to cone four for merkins, calf raises, BBS, and burpees. (20 reps for each exercise at each cone)

At the top of the hill, each partner did three burpees then ran to opposite sides of the hill for 50 reps each of the selected exercise. After each exercise they ran back to the top for three burpees with their partner. Rinse and repeat with SSH, LBCs, Merkins, Squats, Overhead claps, CDD.

Grating of Cheese

We started the workout off this morning with some foreign concept…this thing called stretching, and the PAX dug it.

7s – Burpees and squats with a loop around the parking lot in between each set.

The Cheese Grater – This was a fan favorite this morning. It is similar to an Indian Run :running: but you are planking with bear crawls and pushups. It was terrible as Sir Charles says.

Dora: Partner 1 – 100 flutters, 200 Hello Dollies, and 300 LBCs. Partner 2 – Run a lap around CVS.

Back to COT for prayer slow and praises.

Prayers for Half Shell’s mom, Charlie Kirk, family, and country.
