Not a “Copy”, But an “Original”!



Not a “Copy”, But an “Original”!

With the attempt to not give you guys the same old workout, I was looking to change things up a bit. My original plan was to break out the logs from the Middle School woods but they were pretty nasty, thus you guys got the hill! I din’t know it was going to rain so I am sorry if the benches were a little wet. We had a good showing today where 19 of the Pax (the usual suspects) came out and four new FNG’s today. They will be named later in the backblast. Let’s get into it…

The Warm Up

  • Mosey around the parking lot of the Middle School. Along the left curb we gracefully performed a curb step-up alternating feet up on the curb to end of parking lot. Around the back turn we ran back towards our starting point and did Butt Kicks and High Knees on the run back to circle up. We performed:
    • SSH X 15
    • Imperial Walkers X 15
    • Frankenstein (again, trying to make this different) X 15
    • Potato Pickers X 15
    • Jimmy Dugan – left and right, walk it out to a plank
    • Mountain Climbers X 15
  • The Thang
  • Mosey over to the hill. Pax to team up at this point. Partner #1 up on picnic benches to start 200 step-ups and 200 dips. Partner # 2 runs down the hill (in the dark) to the cones at the bottom of the hill and Bear Crawl back up to meet partner #1 and switch. Thank you to Deadwood for starting an exercise for the finished Pax waiting on the “6”.
  • Mosey down path towards Transporters shed. At each of the lights I called an audible that I shouted shake and bake! When I yelled shake and bake you would perform a burpee. Now I was corrected by Shake N Bake as to the correct term he uses for the move. Sorry about that brother!
  • Stopped along the path to pick out some lifting rocks. Three rounds, rotating each time for some weight variety. Schneider got the heavy rock! Curls, Press and Triceps were the exercises.
  • Mosey to Transporters shed. On the way down the path karaoke/flapjack run and shuffle/flapjack run to the shed.
    • 20 Donkey Kicks – on your own
    • 30 Air Presses – in cadence
    • 30 Air Jabs – in cadence
  • Mosey around back of school to fence area behind High School. Partner up with someone different this time. Partner #1 starts with fence squats. The timer is partner #2 which runs to the turn-around and performs 10 plank jacks. Partner #2 runs back to meet partner #1 and switch.
  • We were under 5 minutes at this point so we made our way back home. We stopped at Transporters shed to get in 10 WWII sit-ups. With two minutes left we had the choice to jail break back to the start or mosey back, I picked the mosey!
  • The Moleskin
    • Thanks to Rockwell for allowing me to leads such a great bunch of guys! I must say, this is one of my favorite sites (Chiseled is the other). It’s an honor to be a part of such a great bunch of guys! Also, I loved how Blue Screen pointed out that between the two of us we have 117 years between us.
