Little bit more

Leave a comment

Arrived on the scene early so I could mosey around the grounds and firm up my plans for the workout. Good thing to because during the pre-mosey had to alter my route and hit the gas station to make a deposit. Left feeling a little lighter and made it back to COT with a couple minutes to spare. Go time baby ( for the 2nd time )!

WARMUP: Recently posted at a Slapshot Q so borrowed this one from him. If you read this @UQ50TPDLH just know I had to 1 up you my friend by adding a rep, because 6 is not good enough man, we needed 7 reps ( SomethingAboutMary reference-hahaha ). Below was done at COT:
5 min EMOM
7 HR Merkins
7 Squats
7 Burpees

THE THANG: After the warm-up was complete we moseyed around Harris Teeter parking lot and traveled to the back of the store making it all the way around to the backside of Red Bowl where we found a strip of parking spaces to perform our Paula Abdul routine.
Bear Crawl 2 parking space lines forward, complete 2 merkins
Crawl Bear 1 parking space line backward, complete 1 merkin
Started from an island and the finish line was the next island. Mainframe finished first and ended the misery for the rest of us.
Upon completion asked the PAX to perform 1 set of Merkins to failure. Everyone shared their number, again, Mainframe was the King, that dude is a beast.

From the backside of Red Bowl we traveled across the street to the church where there is a nice, covered area with plenty of benches. Time to trash the legs.
PAX were asked to complete 15-10-5 reps – each leg – of the following exercises: Step-ups & BSSs
Upon completion we partnered up to spend some time under tension.
1 partner holds Al Gore while the other partner completes 10 jump squats. Keep trading places until you complete an accumulative rep count of 100 jump squats.

From there we moseyed back to the main grounds area and found a smooth surface near a set dumpsters ( can't remember the store next to the dumpsters ). Perfect for a Jack Webb core routine.
1 count exercise was BBSs
4 count exercise was Flutter Kicks ( count 1 leg )
1 count completes at 10 and 4 count completes at 40.
Upon completion asked the PAX to hold a 2 minute high plank.

From there needed to kill 2 minutes so we moseyed around the Harris Teeter parking lot and back to COT right on time. Theme of this workout was to give a little more when you already completed a difficult task. The little more you have to give is not for yourself, but for those who count on you, who need you. You always have a little bit left in the tank to give gents!

MARY: No time for her!

Good group for a chilly morning. Decided to be super creative and use date as workout plan. Yog over to side of lowes for 3 exercises, 13 reps of each: HR merkins, big boys, and squats. Repat this at 2 more stops until we ended up near the Imdian restaurant. Break up into 3 teams, 2 teams work while 1 team does active rest. Teams 1 & 2 do 10 merkins while team 3 holds plank, then 2 & 3 merkins and 1 planks, then 1 & 3 merkin and 2 planks. 2 rounds of this. Then same sequence but big boys were the exercise and 6″ leg holds were the rest. 2 rounds of that. Then another 2 rounds with squats and Al Gores. Yog over to main parking lot. Everyone line up on curb for 15 merkins, 15 big boys, and 15 squats, then run 3 line suicide. 13 merkins, 13 big boys, 13 squats, 2 line suicide. 11 merkins, 11 big boys, 11 squats, run to far line and back. Circle up, PAX are doing shoulder taps while 2 do 5 merkins. Rotate merkins around the circle until everyone has done 2 sets. Next round was lunges and 3 burpees. Again go around until everyone did 2 sets of burpees. Back to the cars for a few minutes of Mary. Thanks for the opportunity <@U04M7P605SM>!
