15 Men showed up at Anvil this morning.  Based on the Twitter exchange some may have had a weird curiosity about how this morning was going to play out.  Nothing out of the ordinary, just a standard Anvil beatdown.

Mosey around lot picking up Abba, his toboggan, and oversized windbreaker rated for 20 below.  After about a quarter mile circle up in one of the hectares that make up the Calvary parking lot.

COP:  20 SSH IC, 20 alternating lunges IC, 20 merkins IC, plank work, 20 Mountain Climbers in cadence.

The Thang:

Mosey to the Rock Pile near the front of the Church and grab a lifting rock.  Head up to the long straight parking lot along 51.

• 3 sets of 15 curls and 15 goblet squats.  Run to other side of lot and back.
• Plank work
• 3 sets of 15 triceps and 15 good mornings.  Run to other side and back.  On the way out drop down and each median on to chest and back up.  (Burpee like, but not burpee)
• Plank work
• 3 sets of 15 OH Press and 15 Teabag squats.  Run to other side and back.  Drop down to chest and back up going out and coming back.
• Plank work
• 3 sets of 15 lateral raises (on six) and 15 flutter presses.  Run to other side and back with 3 jump squats at each median.
• Plank work

Carry rocks overhead back to rock pile.

Zigzag way back home with 15 merkins followed by cross parking lot sprints.

Mary – Cumberland County Viaduct – for hops and some Freddy Mercury.

Done.

Moleskine:

A great morning to post.  It was cool with no wind and a great group of men all pushing hard during the workout.   There was some chatter with McGee and Snucka on the Southern Gentlemen/Northern Aggressor plank work.  Maybe you southern gentlemen need to go ask your great great grand pappy who kicked who’s butt in the Civil War.  Rachel, McGee and Mermaid were flying up and down the parking lot all morning with Snucka not far behind.  Runstopper was mostly blinded by the fogged up glasses or no glasses.  But he did have a headlamp for those dark corners of the the Calvary lot.  I am pretty sure Ickey skipped out on all of the chest to ground work as it too closely resembled a Burpee which I hear he is not doing in October.  Good thing November is coming soon.

I will have to give the proper Respect status to Snucka and BOG in the Backblast here as the new format does not let me call them out in the PAX tag list.  Maybe we can get that to a permanent designation on their tag?

Thanks to Hops for the takeout.  Always well done.
