(Dis)Comfort Zone

(Dis)Comfort Zone

At 5:30 a virtual shovel flag was planted, the disclaimer was given, and 18 men of purpose ran off into the foggy gloom.

The Thang:

Jog to the grotto-like entrance for SSH x 20, Merkins x 15, IW x 20, Squats x 20

Jog to the summit of North Face for circuit work.  5 burpees –> benches (10 derkins) –> bottom of North Face (10 merkins) –> top of North Face (5 burpees).  repeat 3x.  plank-o-rama.

Jog to far end of parking lot for 3x partner sprints/exercise.  Partner up, 1 guy runs, 1 guy does exercise:  merkins, squats, dry docks.

Jog to rockpile, grab a lifting rock.  Pass the rock to the guy on your left.  Q inherited Hercules’ (aka lobsta roll) boulder and proceeded to struggle mightily through the first set of curls 10x, overhead press 10x, tricep extension 10x.  Pass the rock to the left and repeat 3x.

Jog to the playground for pull ups 5x, donkey kicks 10x, merkins 10x.  Repeat 3x.

Run back to cars for Mary.  LBCs, Russian twist, Heels to heaven, Flutter, Dolly, LBCs again, … done!

For my maiden Anvil Q I decided not to go too far off the fairway.  Keep it simple, but intense.  Hope the plan worked.  I appreciate the opportunity to lead the always strong Anvil men.  Hope to do it again soon!
