Renegades of Funk

Renegades of Funk

It was one of the last humid days of summer and 19 men crashed The Maul for a non stop workout around the concrete jungle.

Warmup

SSH, Merkins, Burpees and Good Mornings

The Thang

Jacobs Ladder up the hill – Burpees and Squats

Six Rounds of Jog followed by Carolina Drydock (3 rounds) or Lunges (3 rounds)

Mosey to the hill across from the movie theater

Tackle the hill 5 times starting with a wall climb – this turned out to be a little squirrely as many of the Pax were slidding down the steep hill.  Abandoned after 3 to 4 rounds

Mosey to the parking lot in front of the movie theater

Hershel Walker – situps, pushups (merkins) and sprints

3 rounds with light recovery in between of backwards jog, shuffle, and some Mary

Final push – back to the first hill for one last round of 5 burpees and a hill sprint

There was a study that I read a couple of months back that claimed that working out to music would increase your output by 10%.  Not sure of whether this is true or not but yours truly brought out the tunes (including some Rage Against the Machine) and I know that I found myself pushing it a little harder when some of those tunes were blaring.

Special shout out to Marlin and Double D – Respect to both

Announcements – Big House in Pineville is having a convergence on Labor Day
