Neese’s was almost the death of us

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Yes, IW; HW; some yoga.
Introduced the reverse burpee (you go down on your 6, lay on your back, and then return to standing for a jump). Stagecoach busted his wrist and YHC was tired of seeing him modify.
THE THANG:
Found a wall
10 stepups (each leg)
10 derkins
10 bulgarian split squats (each leg)
10 irkins
Found another wall (it was stupid high)
10 stepups (single leg) this was dumb
10 derkins this was also dumb but not as much

found a moderatle parking lot
10 mike tysons
bear crawl
10 curb alberts
crawl bear
10 mike tysons
lunge walk
10 curb alberts
reverse lunge walk
10 mike tysons
burpee broad jump
(the sprinklers came on and YHC didn’t want a complete mutiny)
mosey back to the dry side for
10 curb alberts

Mosey back by the wall and hit it again

A 60lb sandball was at COT
One man did an over the shoulder lift
Everyone else held a squat down and raised up when the ball hit the ground. Return to the held squat for the next guy to do a lift. 15 guys….
Rinse and Repeat with Split Squats and a reverse burpee

NMM:It’s nice to be motivated to workout, but falling in love with the process of acceleration is even better. That can survive a waning motivation. Or maybe it just is motivation itself?

National Chipmunk Day

Leave a comment

It was a beautiful day over at The Forge, you could feel the electricity in the air! It reminded me of The Electric City, shout out to The University of Scranton. Quick warmup and we were off!

Over to the creepy dim lit side walk behind the overgrown bushes for some wall work. Perfect spot if you want to scare people. We did some overhead claps and derkins to warm the PAX up.

Next stop was the benches for some step ups, dips, and incline merkins.

Now for the final destination we celebrated 2/20 – I heard something about national chipmunk day so we ran with it.

We did a latter workout with Indian runs. Two laps for 2 – 20 reps for 20….Get it….2/20. :grinning:

20 Lunges
20 Merkins
20 Flutters
20 Squats
20 CDDs

We ran two laps between each set.

Back to COT for Mary, prayers and praises.

JWow

WARMUP: SSH, Casbah Number 2s
THE THANG: Two teams. Two 60lb sandbags (thanks <@U01K743CG2G>)

Get up the hill where a stack of exercises is waiting. The team does the exercises and when the whole team is done, back down the hill to the sandbags. Rinse and repeat with the usual exercises. In the voice of Rooney from Ferris Bueller “9 times.”
