3 sets of 12 or 12 sets of 3?



3 sets of 12 or 12 sets of 3?

Eleven decided their arms were only good for one thing today and that was slinging some iron.  YHC did his best to deliver a painful beatdown and Q’d the workout under a 30# Ruck.

The Thang:

SSH x 20, Two-handed swing x 20

Merkin x 20, Two-handed swing x 20

Mt. climbers x 20, Two-handed swing x 20

Circuits: 3 sets 12 or AMRAP up to 12

Goblet Squat, Good Morning

Snatch, Overhead Press (two handed)

Deadlift to upright row to overhead press, Calf Raises

 

Diamond Merkins, Lawnmower

Single arm high-pull, one arm swing

Burnout Sets: Reps go 20 &5, 15 &10, 10 & 15, 5 & 20

two-handed swings / curls

up-right rows / tricep extensions

10 squats

10 good mornings

Moleskinny:  Good showing today, saw some faces that I haven’t seen in a while.  Including (but not limited to): Fletch, Tackling Dummy, and Prohibition.  Maybe I need to make the rounds a little more often.  Mumblechatter was looking strong this morning when YHC didn’t have the volume pumped up enough for the pax.  Comments were made about the size of the speaker vs the volume output and yet somehow they ended there and didn’t veer off into the gutter.  Maybe we are a classy group after all … on second thought no we’re not.  YHC didn’t want to wake the neighbors with such awesome tunes.  Once the workout was underway mumblechatter died out quickly.  Must have been those three sets of 12 (or was it 12 sets of 3?)  Pax were crushing it today,

Since when did Meathead become more popular with the runners than Devil’s Turn?  #RunningIsBoring

Thanks to Voodoo, Witch Doctor, High Tide, my job, and my alarm clock this week for letting me Q.  Always a pleasure to be home and to lead my favorite workout.

Good one, Hoover. And whatever wasn’t good, we made up for in volume, so we’ve got that goin’ for us.

That was a tough one, Hoover. I basically gave up on trying to curl my bell during the burn out sets. It just wasn’t moving. I’m dreading trying to get out of bed tomorrow. I have a feeling it’s going to be difficult, maybe impossible. Thanks for that, you son of a …. very nice lady, I’m sure. (Good thing I remembered you’re 6+ inches taller than me and outweigh me by about 85 pounds!)

The tunes were excellent (once you cranked the speaker a bit) and I’m impressed that you didn’t lose the ruck at any point during the workout, especially those calf raises.

Hopefully work and your alarm clock keep you coming out, it’s good to have you at Meathead.
