Bearded Brothers Beatdown

WARMUP: 3/4 mile run to the dance studio with some monkey Humpers, burpees and squats along the way at various spots
THE THANG: Had a conversation with Rebound Monday after Flight Plan and found out he had the Q at Kitchen Sink that same day. So the beards got together and thought it would be a grand idea to combine both of our Q’s together for a great beat down. We launched from Harris Teeter in Tega Cay and made our way down to the little Dance studio which is about 3/4 of a mile. Kitchen sink boys where there standing in a circle not doing much of anything. So when we arrived the real work began. My workout was the timer while Rebound workout was the heavy lifting. Grab a partner from opposite group and get to work. One goes to other end of parking lot while other grinds it out with the sandbags.

Rebound had a board with various exercises which we made it through:
Overhead Press
Squats
Curls
Sandbag Swings (those really sucked)
Deadlifts
All where AMRAP

My part was:
Hand Release Merkins
Carolina Dry Docks
Sumo Squats
Big Boi Sit-ups

Start at 5 reps per then increase each round by 5 reps. Made it to 20 reps then we backed back down 5. It really started to suck big time. Lots of complaining about those merkins.
I’m sore as crap from this. It was a great workout.

MARY: Can we rename her to Meghan? We did Hello Dolly, Flutter Kicks and Dying Cockroach before COT
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Break The Dam on Feb. 28th. Ruck CSAUP middle of May get with Shady if interested
COT: Mental struggles. Kick life back when it kicks you in the nads.
