Fat Camp wants YOU!

Fat Camp wants YOU!

So after spending hours planning out my VQ several months ago and leading a few other workouts I’ve gotten to the point where I procrastinate and finally plan my workout late the night before. Despite my delay in planning, a full body workout was planned and executed!

• 0500: Pre-run 1, approximately 1.6 miles, back through parking lot to pick up any arrivals
• 0515: Pre-run 2, another 1.6 miles or so to finish our pre-workout 5K

Warm-up:

• Run Around Parking Lot
• 20 SSH
• 10 LSS
• 10 Windmill

The Thang:

1. Mosey around school with stops at the following pain stations:

• Box Jumps
• Incline Merkins
• Burpees
• Triceps Dips
• One leg stair climb
• KB Swings
• (REPEAT 4 times total increasing in reps each round – 10, 12, 14, 16)

2. Mosey to parking lot for and alternate sandbag carry and LBCs.

3. 10 squats with sandbags x2.

4. COT – YHC with the Takeout

The Moleskin

Today was a slow start numbers-wise, but we made up for it with effort. With the pre-run, we managed to get in 5+ miles and a ton of work. Hopefully, this is just the start of bigger and better things for Fat Camp. With the new format and the Fat Boy coming this summer (see Announcements below), I have a feeling that it is.

Despite the possibility of last nights “activities” coming up, Kirby put in a solid effort and even showed up for round 2 of the pre-run! General never seems to get enough workout in and showed up for both pre-runs and the work out. Bounty Hunter was blazing the trail and set a great pace for the rest of us. I think that my Q today must have been below the intensity of the unstoppable Haggis as he arrived early for pre-workout pull ups and continued to do post-workout pull ups. I guess I gotta step it up next time!
