AMRAP 4 AUTISM 2025

Leave a comment

14 Bootcampers showed up (3 more for 6 @ 6) for the 4th annual AMRAP 4 AUTISM. YHC was humbled to lead this event again and thankful to all who’ve donated and those who showed up for the workout!

WARMUP: A lap around the park with a few stops along the way for the following services.
– 131 SSH – 1 in 31 children in the US are diagnosed with autism
– 60 squats – CDC estimates $60K per year of extra cost to raise a child with autism.
– 36 LBC – Two years ago the diagnosis rate was 1 in 36
THE THANG: YHC had a trailer full of Cindy’s and was ready for whoever showed! After the warmup I explained the following rules of engagement:
1. 36 min AMRAP
2. Partner count
3. 1 round = all 5 exercises
4. All exercises complete before moving to next round
5. Hands never leave the block. Autistic people never get to remove autism from their lives. For this 36 min we will not move our hands from the block.
Enough rules. Time to work!
1. 54 man makers
2. 54 frog squats
3. 54 yard fair carry with both blocks
4. 54 bent over rows
5. 54 BBBS

Finished with a last man standing sprint race with Stone Cold beating out Slapshot by a hair!
MARY: Nah
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Canoli Run

MARY: My late Mom’s name. Miss you mom!
ANNOUNCEMENTS: We did a LOT of good in the D2D fundraising!! Alot going on. Read your newsletter and get involved!!
COT:
I mentioned how my mom recently passing has put me in a big funk, like I am in PTSD mode, but just posting and being out with the PAX has helped my mental state immensely, and even more the PAX who have reached out to me. As Slapshot said at Minnow Pond, it can be a huge uplift to others. Twister mentioned about the effects that F3 can have. We do alot of good out in the community, but being out and about with the PAX is like a cure-all tonic. He EH’s guys as often as he can because this F3 tonic is what alot of us guys need, whether we know it, or want to admit it, or not. I really loved that analogy! F3 means alot of different things to each of us, but it is still a great thing for all of us, helps lift us up in various ways, but we need to be out there with the PAX regularly to get our regular dose of that tonic to make our lives a little better. Cobra Kai mentioned he recently had coffee with a Kotter, someone who was a hard charger, did alot when he was posting, not afraid of the hard workouts. He is carrying some burdens and is suffering, the mental side of things. Goes to show that even the toughest facade can be a cover up for what is really inside. The coffee meeting seemed to be a good thing for him. Cobra Kai gave him some of that tonic, whether he knew it or not. So I implore you to keep EHing, keep giving it away. Don’t ever stop. You just may be the one person that helps someone through their rough patches or worse. Be the tonic!

Thanks for the opportunity to lead.
Blessings and SYITG,
