Hero WOD – The Steve

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Cherry Pickers, Windmill, down dog, honey mooners, the lizard stretch.

Mosey to ROTC building and everyone grabbed a Cindy then mosey back to the flag.

THE THANG: Hero WOD for my father in law Steve. He is the reason I got into CrossFit years ago and once I quit doing that I got really out of shape. Found out about F3 and when I told him about it he was so excited for me. Pushed me to go all in and no quit, even brought me a workout rack from PA so I could do stuff at home as well. He pushed me to be better in all three F’s as well as to be a better husband and father.

He loved “grunt work” as he called it and he taught me more about construction in 12 years than most people get to know in a life time so only fitting everything was done with a colder block. He passed away at 55 so we did 5 sets of 5 exercises while listening to his favorite 80s hair metal bands.

5 rounds of 5 exercises all done with cinder blocks

Reps were 25,20,15,10,5
After each set of reps we ran about .1 mile

We started each exercise together so those who finished early held plank or Al Gore until 6 was in.

Exercises

Bent over rows
Push press
Power cleans
Squats
Thrusters

After we walked our Cindy’s back and moseyed to the flag for COT

MARY: had a little lamb to take care of so was not present today.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence tomorrow, bethel this week, read your letter of news
