Droppin’ BOMBS

TLDR: #dontcarewonNATTY

Full Blast: YHC and the WSP Clown Car joined a solid 16 Pax for a soggy field workout morning. Upon emerging from the truck, one Pax noticed YHC’s Clemson shirt and asked “Oh, Clemson… didn’t they just do something important?” which I replied in my best Kevin Hart accent: “You gon learn today!”

Quick disclaimer and let’s roll. Mosey around front of OP to warm up in the bus loop with:

  • 11x Imperial Walkers
  • 11x Low Slow Squats
  • 11x Side Straddle Hops
  • 11x Merkins

You might ask, “why 11?” But I need you to focus on the bigger picture here. 11 reps 4 times is the same number of points Clemson scored against Alabama in the recent National Championship beat down.

From here, we mosey’d down the dirt road to the back football field. Multiple comments about ‘wet holes’ were mentioned while focusing on foot placement dodging potholes.

Pax circled up on the field and poured out a measly 16 burpees to represent the few points Alabama was able to obtain against the stout Clemson D two Monday’s ago.

The real beat down was about to begin. Pax partnered up to model the B.O.M.B.S that Sir Trevor Lawrence was dropping to Clemson wideouts.

Partner 1 did exercise while Partner 2 ran endzone to endzone. Swapped out and continued until each of the of reps were completed:

  • Burpees – 50
  • Overhead Press – 100
  • Merkins – 150
  • Big Boy Situps – 200
  • Squats – 250

No call out’s, but there was a drastic difference in some of the counting across the teams getting through their 750 total reps.

After about 30 mins of B.O.M.B.S, we moved on to a little Braveheart action. Split into 4 groups of 4 and took positions at each corner of the field for an exercise called William Wallace.

  • One Pax from each team sprinted to a chair that was positioned in the center of the field where they did 1 burpee before returning
  • Remaining Pax were alternating Plank and Six Inches while waiting on the runners to return
  • Cycled through ever runner twice.

We finished up as a Pax in the center of the field for a little mosey back to the landing zone for a little Mary

  • 20x America Hammers
  • 20x Dollys
  • 20x LBCs

COT, Counterama, Namerama, Announcearama and the Ball Of Man for a take out from YHC

Only one Announcement shared by Scratch and Win where he notified the Pax that YHC will migrate from HATE HATE to only HATE age on the 28th of this month. Thanks Scratch!

Moleskin:

I didn’t have enough fingers to count the number of complaints paid to the soggy and cold field conditions, but IMO they don’t put championship rings on smooth clean hands…

When I overheard Marge and Gummy stargazing and pointing out neighboring planets while running I was concerned the beatdown wasn’t up to snuff.

Shortly after, that concern was alleviated with several compliments paid during the endzone to endzone routes. The greatest of which was from Bugeater: “You know it’s working when it gets quiet…”

Thank you Marge and Queen for the opportunity to Q Hydra.

Solid lead Lew! Just glad Bama got knocked silly. Gummy was feeling so pumped from that Clemson themed insanity you threw down that he ran back to Chadwyck and back for more miles post workout.

I used to think highly of Bugeater. He is dead to me now.

Lew, sorry to have missed the sloppy fun but glad I didn’t show up and throw off your plans for the 4×4 field exercise (17 divided by 4 is tough, and I know they don’t teach that type of math at Clemson)

The sloppy field brought back memories of the New Years Convergence at OP 4-5 years ago. That was the muddiest workout I’ve been to. And the one where I tore my plantar fascia. Ah, memories. Semi Gloss had the line of the morning while Marge and I were discussing the planets (Venus and Mars, apparently), something along the lines of, “at least I don’t see Uranus.” Classy.

Venus and Jupiter, Gummy.
