7 pax posted for the promised Simple & Sinister beatdown, to include the beloved Turkish Getups. Despite not everyone seeing the promise, the offer was extended to all, in the kitty litter.

COP
Not as much a circle of pain as a march of pain, courtesy of the Cook Drill. Walking to the playground – via the parking lot to sidewalk and along the track – begin with a Waiter Carry as long as you can maintain good form, then drop to a Racked Carry, again for as long as you can maintain good form, then drop to a Suitcase Carry. When you can no longer maintain good form on that arm/side (or when Q calls it at the halfway mark), switch sides and continue.
Warm enough, we continue the program…
Simple & Sinister:

Good Mornings & Deadlifts (the ultimate combo):

Light, misty rain this morning kept us from overheating. Lots of work done today, whether as prescribed or modified as desired. Well done!
TGUs aren’t the favorite of many (besides YHC), so they aren’t offered very often, despite the fact that they are generally regarded as one of the best exercises you can do. Because of that, YHC does feel obligated to put them on the menu occasionally (not to do so would be dereliction of duty, akin to no merkins at a bootcamp!), but never without warning via Twitter & (now) Slack. T-claps to those trying them, if your ACL allowed (sorry, Bulldog). IMHO, it is a worthy pursuit to build up to the Simple goal.
All in all, good mumblechatter and 2nd F, throughout the hard work and damp conditions, mostly in the kitty litter (mulch).
Thanks, as always, for the honor to lead today.
Aye!
