Clemson in the parking lot?

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Bandcamp took the warmup as YHC wrote in chalk in parking spaces. Shieldlocks do this for each other.
THE THANG: 5 min buy in. Carry a weight (ruck, kb, ruck plate) from the parking lot and up the hill over your head. Get to the top, 10 burpees, back down the hill with your toy over your head.

One we returned to parking lot, parking spaces were marked with 2 exercises and had weight in each space at varying sizes. Instructions were, do one exercise in the space and run to the top of the hill where you’d do another exercise written down starting at the top. Finish that 1 exercise and go back to the bottom spaces and grab a new space and perform exercise, then back up the hill for the 2nd exercise on the paper…and down and up, down and up.

Exercises in the spaces:
– 45 lbs (or 50+): 1. 30 shrugs 2. 100 calf raises
– 40 lb sandbag: 1. 20 man makers 2. 25 shoulder presses
– 35 lb: 1. 40 swings 2. 30 curls
– 30 lb: 1. 40 squats 2. 30 lunges
– 25 lb: 1. 25 tri extension 2. 30 rows
– 30 lb ruck: 1. 25 merkins 2. 30 chest press

Top of hill:
1. 10 burpees
2. 15 diamonds
3. 20 hand release
4. 25 wide arm
5. 30 merkins
6. 35 Rangers
7. 40 CDD
8. 45 plank jacks (this is as far as we got)

Some of us, BC, wore a weight vest because that’s what we do.

MARY: 1 min of American hammers

Everyone has a burden

Leave a comment

WARMUP: windmill, hula hoops, hoops hula, low slow squats
THE THANG: pick your poison from the junk in my truck. Head towards “the office* pull up bar location where each PAX did best attempt at pull ups while wearing a ruck. Every 5 mins or so we would pull an exercise out of the roller bag and perform before rotating to a new coupon. Noteworthy items were the meat hammer, and the worst pot of chili ever. Honorable mention to the mirror.
Finished the stroll through the woods with a death climb back up to Tega Cay Middle School parking lot where we quickly dropped the weights and shuffled to COT.
MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter
COT: prayers for marriage and family members.

Yinz going DahnTawn N’AT?

Leave a comment

When called to lead by a fellow yinzer…. You answer the call. The standard is the standard after all.

Disclaimer

Warmup:

8 Manmakers every minute on the minute for 5 minutes

Began the long mosey.

3 rounds of 18 Minutes.

For each 18 Minute round we would stop and do reps of an exercise. The number of reps was equal to the minute in the round. So after minute 1 we did 1 merkin after minute 2 we did 2 merkins etc..etc…
As the reps progressed it definitely got harder and the chatter got less.

Round 1: Merkins
Round 2: Squats
Round 3: Hammers ( In the interest of time and to ensure that we got back to COT on time we just walked most of this but did get hammers in at the very end)

All in we got over 170 Squats and Merkins in plus Manmakers and hammers.

Thanks to Sprocket for the call! Always happy to support a fellow Yinzer!

Take care and until next time……N’at.
