Jersey Yikes at The Stockade

Leave a comment

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.  

Mosey to COT

MARY:  she wasn’t present but her shoulders would have felt great after the workout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Jaeger, newsletter
COT: Health and marriages

Burpees with Bells

Leave a comment

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!

4 minutes until the Kraken

Leave a comment

Nice and warm for a Colosseum WO and a Flag Handoff.

With a FNG present we included the 5 core principles and the F3 mission. I started the “clock” which meant that every 4 minutes throughout the course of the workout each PAX would do 5 Kraken Burpees. With that I got into the warmup.

100 SSH (IC)
15 Merkins (IC)

So for the majority of this workout we ran to separate spots from the Colosseum Shovel Flag to the Carolina Eye Center Parking Lot. We would stop along the way where I would call different exercises in Cadence in this order.

5 Merkins (IC)
10 LBC’s (IC)
15 (Flutters IC)
20 HD (IC)
25 (Squats Low Slow IC)

As we ran back towards COT we stopped briefly into the “purple light” near the Tega Cay Coffee Truck. Everyone wondered where the glow sticks and foam pit was. Good questions obviously but it was not a rave or a college basement party so we did more Kraken Burpees.

As we approached the final few minutes Backdraft complained there were not enough squats so I obliged with 50 low slow squats that segwayed nicely into 5 more Kraken Burpees.

Got back to COT where we executed a Flag handoff to Rebound and named a FNG Blacklight.

All in all it was a good workout where we ended up with about 50 Kraken Burpees and around 150 Merkins, 180 LBC’s and just about 2 miles (slightly over or under depending on the watch)

Always honored for the lead and for the opportunity.

Thank you!

THE THANG 1:
mosey to picnic tables
11 merkins, 10 diamond merkins, 9 merkins, 8 diamond merkins, 7 merkins, 6 diamond merkins, 5 merkins (then YHC had to tap out….if you can’t do it, don’t Q it. Attempting the remaining 10 merkins could have resulted in a face plant)

All told we only covered a mile in distance today. YHC hopes the PAX still got their money’s worth of out this free workout, open to all men, held outdoors, peer led with no assumption of expertise, that ended in a COT.

COT:
Shot for the Prayer of St. Francis, but didn’t quite have the thing memorized. Memorize is my word of the year, I’m working on it.

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.

An honor to lead such a solid crew.
