Simple but effective (or keep it simple stupid – you pick)



Simple but effective (or keep it simple stupid – you pick)

Ten men decided to accelerate on hump day (maybe to earn our happy hour).    Cool temperatures and a fairly old group (4 over 50) made for perfect conditions for YHC.  Luckily, Lorax posted today instead of tomorrow (he mentioned something about Labor Day getting him off track – I worked out on Labor Day so I was Prepared).

The Thang:

COP – 1 burpee, 10 SSH, 2 burpees, 10 IW, 3 burpees, 10 Mtn Climbers (PAX was likely happy after thinking burpees would end at 10)

YHC assigned partners and we moseyed over to the rock pile to grab one rock per team.  Then we moseyed down to right field of the baseball field for some partner work.  Partner one runs down to fence at field while partner two does called exercise and then flapjack.

  1. Curls and run
  2. Push presses and run
  3. Skull crushers and run
  4. Squats and run
  5. Flutter and run
  6. Merkins and run with rock to infield
  7. Curls and bear crawl 25 yards
  8. Push presses and karaoke to infield
  9. Skull crushers and backward run to infield
  10. Merkins and lunge walk 25 years with rock
  11. Dolly and run to fence
  12. Six inches and run to fence (all together)

Mosey up to picinic area for a ladder of 15, 10, 5 with both dips and step ups.     Finish with 25 decline merkins

Mosey to other side of concession stand for a few minutes of wall sit.  One partner holds rock out as long as they can and then hand off to partner.

Mosey back to rock pile.   Monkey humpers for a 30 seconds (evidently, Smokey had never done monkey humpers before).

Mosey to middle of parking lot.  Partner 1 does burpees while partner 2 runs down to next light and back.  Flap-jack.

Finish with a few minutes of mary

Hard to believe a Respect has never done monkey humpers.  He probably went home and tried to demonstrate for his M.

Snooka’s gold chain was shining in the morning moonlight and now YHC may be in trouble with the mafia for making fun of it.   However, he beat Lorax in the first few sprints so Lorax is probably the one in trouble.   The guys is 20 years older (supposedly).

Good to visit a different site as Centurion has been my only F3 workout for about 5 months.     Trying to get my neigbors to wake up earlier and travel with me some instead of working out in our hood every morning.   They had the gall to call me JV for not working out with them even though we started 30 minutes earlier.

Fallout’s family has had a rough period (COVID is the least of his worries) so let’s keep him and his family in our prayers.

As always, it was a privilege to lead this group this morning.   Let’s all keep accelerating.

Please consider finding out a way to help your local public school.   Lots of families could use help with supplies and food so call your PTO president or contact me for ideas.

Thanks

Great lead Chelms! My arms are feeling smoked this morning. Always a good sign of a solid Q.

Good work Chelms, glad you got some Anvil redemption. Not in the BB, the field and later my shoes were wet. Which made the Heels to Heaven, etc quite a weighted exercise. Thanks for the lead, and cadence examples for the newer pax, always a good reminder.

Solid beating Chelms. Good on you for getting up earlier than your neighbors. The cadence count reminder was a good idea.
