No Rep Count

1st cone
– Squats
– Lunges
– Calf raises
– Farmer Carry/Bear Crawl to next cone
2nd cone
– Bent over row
– Upright row
– Curl
– Overhead carry to next cone
3rd cone
– Flutter with press
– American Hammer
– Simba
– Sandbag toss with Man Maker

BHAG at the Hive

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

Cards at WEP

WARMUP: Stretchy things
THE THANG: Lap around park stopping at swings alternating between 20 merkins and 20 squats. Mosey over to lot in front of old springs building. 17 bombjacks, 17 plankjacks,and 17 v-ups. Take a lap. Repeat with 15s then again with 13s. One additional round of 17 dips, 17 calf raises, and 17 flutters them mosey back to amphitheater. Simple in between card game. Start with a pot of exercises (laps, burpees, merkins, squats, lbcs). Flip 2 cards and PAX wager if next card is between the values. If next card is inbetween, then group does wagered exercises and pot is reduced. If card is outside, group does wager but pot grows. Intention was to do everything left in the pot when cards were done but I overestimated both number of reps and basic card math of PAX. I’ll try this again but I learned I need to make some adjustments.
