7th year Anniversary… with Burpees

Leave a comment

5 Windmill IC

Also Grace Church Parking Lot
Pendulum Workout (Routine I “borrowed” off of Cha Ching)  10 – 5 Reps
Catalina Wine Mixers (an OTG favorite)
(no burpees in the middle this time)
Diamond Merkins
 
Run Back to COT
My personal Favorite with the remaining time left….
EMOM  10 Burpees a minute on the minute….. (only got 9 minutes in)
 
The question of the day is why…why I still am doing this after 7 years when I first thought I’d only give it like 3 months.
 
And it really is because of all of the guys I’ve met and learned from. When I started the saying was if you want to run fast…run with faster people. And There are so many HIMS in our region that run so much faster than me. Not just actual literal running but accelerating at all phases of life. These are role models for us and a big reason why I keep coming out, and I keep pushing. Everyone reading this has in some way pushed me to be 1% better than I was yesterday.  Thank you guys! And see you all in the gloom!

WARMUP: we don’t do that here
THE THANG:
We stayed together as a group today. First stop at Southstate bank for merkins. Second stop at Hoof and Barrel for 5 burpees, third stop at Delaney for 5 burpees with a plank jack, fourth stop at the roundabout at Cloverdale and Waterloo for 5 kraken burpees, fifth stop at Hubert Graham for 5 burpees with a triple jump squat, sixth stop at the roundabout by Model A for some American Hammers, seventh stop at the top of the back entrance to Colosseum for 5 kraken burpees with a plank jack and triple jump squat to end the Hightower. Down to the Colosseum for some Mike Tyson’s and flutters, then over to the bottom of Dave Gibson to partner nur up the hill.
We ran past COT and stopped to do 5 more burpees bc it’s a great way to strengthen the mind, then around Earth Fare, more American hammers, and finished right at 0600 at COT.

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?
