Who need AKA?

WARMUP: Some SSH, Windmills, Moroccan Night Clubs, Imperial Walkers & Hillbilly Walkers

THE THANG:

Mosey over to the side of Harris Teeter and use there giant wall for a little work. Everyone grabbed a seat against it and had a 10 count waterfall kick us off down the line. We followed this up by a plank series with our feet on the wall (parallel, 45 degrees & B2W) 10 count at each. It was all so much fun we did it again.

Mosey back to the parking lot and completed a round of solo DORA style work. 100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC. Run to the end of the lot and back whenever you were unable to continue or at least ever 1/4 of the set.

Jersey Yikes at The Stockade

WARMUP: A few SSH then we just jumped into it.

THE THANG: Two lines facing each other in the plank position.  4 plank jacks, 4 mountain climbers, 4 shoulder taps, 4 Supermans.  4 plank walks to the side then repeat with 8 reps for each exercise.  4 plank walks and 16 reps each.  4 more plank walks and 32 reps each.   The fun really began at 16.

After this we did some partner leap frogs with partner 1 lunge walking to the first of eight cones.  Partner 2 does 10 merkins then jogs to the first cone.  Flip flop (or leap frog) until reaching the last cone.  Rinse and repeat back to the first cone but swap out lunge walks for bear crawls.

Mosey to Jersey Mikes for a #7 Turkey and provolone with honey mustard Dora.  All totaled, that sandwich is ~540 calories.  With partners we did 540 reps of 7 exercises.  One partner did a lap around Jersey Mikes and Walgreens while the other did the reps.  Switch when partner returns from the run. Reps were: 100 squats, 100 LBCs, 100 plank jacks, 100 CDD, 100 curb dips.  We closed it out with each partner doing 20 American Hammers and 20 burpees.

Mosey back to the cones for one more partner leap frog.  Due to pax demand, merkins were swapped out for squats.

Burpees with Bells

Surprisingly cool morning here at WEP.

After a brisk 2 mile pre-run with Beaker we gathered Slash and began the workout.

5 minute buy – in

100 HR Merkins However every minute we had to run the hill to the entrance of the parking lot and then back down the hill once the second minute hit and vicea versa until the 5 minutes were up.

WOD: All Exercises are with a Bell. Curls, Merkins, Lunges are split between right and left. (so 25 per side for the Merkins)

30 Tri Extensions
30 Curls
40 Squats
50 Merkins
60 Swings
40 Thrusters
30 Lunges
30 Man- Makers

In addition every 3 minutes we had to run to the top of the hill again and do 3 burpees and run back.

One trip through the WOD got us to 5:57. We did some Mary that included Flutters, Big Boy’s, Hammers and a 1 minute plank to get us to 6:00.

Great workout and great fellowship this morning. We all mentioned how we like these smaller groups from time to time on how it increases accountability and encourages fellowship.

Thanks to Beaker for the opportunity! Until Next time!
