Moleskin: YHC busts another filler bag, easily shedding 10 points of sand in the final 15 minutes of the workout. Maximus represented the “still wearing shorts in February” club before flying off to warmer weather today. PETA was recovering from the death flu and still put in the work. Sprocket was alone in his thoughts on the field but is always chatty when humping weight. And, last but not least, Spider-Man served up a web of mumble chatter and groaning when it came to sandbag complexes and bear crawl drags – I kinda like it.
Always a pleasure – Solo

We got through 2 rounds of this full body upper middle and lower workout. Lots of great mumble chatter mostly about the hair metal play list. Let’s just say it was a generational divide!

120 pounds of fun!

Leave a comment

Cold but glorious morning in the gloom. 5 fellow pax joined me for the following.

Warmup:

20 SSH IC
10 Windmill IC
3 burpees
20 seal jacks
15 MNC
3 burpees
15 plank jacks
Stretch(looked at a very low flying plane)
15 Mountain climbers
3 burpees

Thang:

Everyone partnered up got a sandbag and engaged in a lazy Dora… with a twist.

Partner 1 does 10 reps with a sandbag while partner 2 does as many reps as they can of the accompanying exercise. Each partner switches off after 10 reps until the cumulative total is met.

60 Man makers with Burpees
60 squats with squats
60 curls with flutters
60 flutter press with LBCS

Now every minute… on the minute a timer would go off and everyone had to run to the end of the parking lot and back. This made it fun!

After this routine we did an Indian “run” (it was really more of a walk) where the leaders would partner carry the 120lbs sandbag while the 6 had to do 10 HR merkins to catch up. We made it around the parking lot twice before tapping out with about 2ish minutes left. I closed us out with some Mary and that was it.

Big thanks to Maximas for the lead and to all who showed.

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
THE THANG: run 4 miles
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS:was a lot of fun running this morning. Did learn about OldBay new health monitor to tell him if he has had enough sleep, if h he is in his target heart rate, and a lot of other really cool stuff. He and I might differ on State schools but both like technology. Twister and Cakeboss are really getting after the runs and sprocket likes to double down. Delorean gets his in even if at the wrong location.
