Not So Rainy, Rainy Day Workout
Cantore was off his game last night. High chance of rain and thunderstorms were expected this morning. It didn’t happen. YHC had already planned a rainy day workout so that’s what we did. A quick disclaimer was given in the parking lot. 19 men then headed over to Tartarus.

Run over to the second level of the parking deck for COP. Merkins x 10 / Low Slow Squats x 10 / Heels to Heaven x 15, Wide Arm Merkins x 10, Mountain Climbers x 15 all done IC.
Line up on wall on one side of the parking deck facing the opposite side. Bear Crawl to the other side, turn around, complete 1 Merkin. Bear Crawl back, turn around, 2 Merkins. Continue with ascending Merkins to 6. The original goal was 10, but after much mumblechatter and PAX modification it was reduced to 6.
Run to the bottom of the parking deck.
Going up do 2 Monkey Humpers at every parking space line on the inclines of the deck. 10 Merkins at each turn. Lunge Walk the flat parts of the deck. Do this all the way to the top level. Then run back to the start. Mary while waiting for the six. Repeat this one more time, but with Board Jumps instead of Monkey Humpers.
Ended the workout with 7s. Go all the way to the top of the deck completing Kraken Burpees (a Burpee with 3 HR Merkins) and all the way back down using the deck for more Kraken Burpees. Time ran out before completion. Everyone headed back to the launch after time expired. Circle up for COT.

Nice work out there today gentlemen. Looked like everyone was pushing hard. I hope everyone got something out of it. Thanks for coming out even though my Qing is still in its infancy. I look forward to more opportunities.

Whoa – A workout with lots of bear crawls! I hate missing that – my one and only chance to lead these days. Bummer.
I hated missing the posting altogether today. After four straight, my (getting) old (fast) body needed a day to recover. See you guys next week!
P.S. Does McGee get to count a Kraken burpee three times?
I didn’t jump and “Boards” so do I need to go back and do them over. Veteran Q would have made the PAX suffer (I mean get stronger) by going all the way to 10 on the bear crawl/merkin ladder. That would have been really aweful.
Only two rounds of 7’s was enough.
I read that another AO (in Cotswold I think) did Gorilla Humpers. I don’t think I want to know what the hell those are.
Great Q Rachel. Your cadence was perfect – did you stay up all night watching the how to count video?
When Champagne opined about taking the elevator after the 2nd or 3rd round of 7s it officially became a brutal workout. Thank you for not lapping me this morning, I guess the Kraken Burpess slowed you down.
Oh yeah, and don’t worry, only a few bruises (no broken bones) from when you ran over me trying to catch Frazier.
