2024.28 Armory

Standard warmup…

One of my favorite KB formats is the 3x3x3: 3 rounds of 3 sets of 3 exercises. But to mix it up, 2 sets from the current followed by 1 set of the previous, so A-A, then B-B-A, then C-C-B… I think this allows a little longer recover before heading into the 3rd set which helps you to push harder. I’m going to tell myself that, cause I am still in pain two days later.

Set A:
Clean into a 1 arm thruster x10 (5 EA)
Front raise x10
Single-leg dead lift x10 (5 EL)

Set B:
Bent row x10EA
Tricep Extension x10
Squat x20

Set C:
One-arm swings x10EA
Overhead Press x10EA
Racked split squat x10 each side

Between rounds cooldown lap ending in a 20yd bear crawl to spike the heart rate to get ready for the next round.

This was a tough one. I’m pretty sure Band Camp thought I was making it all up, cause I don’t have to put Sharpie on my forearm… Welcome FNG Splash Pad! Hopefully there was enough fun in there to offset the splashing / dry heaving…

Reversal of Aging Through F3

We reversed the aging process through short bursts of intense energy expenditure (three specific throwing bells exercises with a subsequent yog – soft j) followed by brief intervals of recovery (broga stretching). There’s been studies ya know.

We focused on form because the faster you went the more burpees and flutters you had to do waiting for The Six (which just so happened to be YHC….[ahem]).

We did this for four rounds. Then we ended by giving up all effort. We started the day with mindfulness….which was nice. Aye!
