Sorry for the late post, better late than never I guess. Thanks to Wingman for setting up my ability to finally post BB’s.
8 PAX smartly decided in order to enjoy more turkey day food and drink; they would need to punish themselves a little beforehand.
Warm-up:
Quick but according to one unnamed, PAX ‘best ever’ disclaimer and we were off.
Mosey to teacher’s parking lot for token warm-up:
SSH x 20 IC, IW x 20 IC, LSS x 15 IC, Mountain climbers x 20 IC, Various planks, Burpees x 5.
The Thang:
Mosey to Davie Park, stopping at each light for 11 variations of the Merkin x10 reps:
Descend to the bottom of the hill at the entrance. Mosey to the top, perform 7 burpees, back down for Dolly x30. Repeat with Flutter x30 and American Hammers x30.
Mosey towards the playground and select a lifting rock:
Squat and press x 20 – mosey to entrance gate and to back playground for Pullups x10
Bent over rows x20 – mosey to entrance gate and to back playground for Dips x 25
Lunges 10x per leg – mosey to entrance gate and to back playground for Step up 10x per leg.
Mosey back to the entrance and do one final round of 7 burpees at the top.
Mosey back to camp, 7 jump squats at every other light, with 10 merkin variations in between (much to the PAX chagrin).
Upon arrival at SCMS parking lot, basketball hoop suicides with backwards running to the start line x2.
90 seconds of protractor until 6:15.
Moleskin:
Solid crew out this morning, assuming most of the motivation this morning was to offset Thursday’s activities, or lack thereof. On our field trip to Davie Park, we didn’t realize how illuminated the road was… lots of merkins in short order. Header made the hill/burpee combo look easy. Chin Music led the charge on the push-ups. Dollywood didn’t even break a sweat, will challenge you more next time! Cheese Curd was able to point out the many flaws in the Q while cruising through everything (yes, the 2nd round of suicides was filler – your fault for finishing everything so fast). Geraldo got out of rucking form and dominated bootcamp. Good to have Enron in A51, was posting more recently in UnionCo and came out and got after it. Hope to see you in more A51 workouts soon! Jet Fuel is captain consistency, always getting it done from start to finish.
YHC is incredibly thankful to be asked to lead by Dollywood and Smokey, and an even more thankful that you all followed.
Thanks to Header for the takeout.

Moleskin:
Solid crew out this morning getting after it, and I am definitely getting more and more sore as I write this. Focus of this workout was to swing/lift a lot of weight with no real breaks, no Mary, and no miles logged. Having the gangster rap absolutely helped everyone get through the workout. I think it’s safe to say my music selection was a first for Meathead (and quite possibly a last). YHC tried to throw a few new moves in today to keep things fresh, with the sprinter’s stance swings and the swing/catch/squat/press move. Those definitely brought the pain. Hopefully everyone got their money’s worth today.
Rachel is always crushing the workouts, running, boot-camps, bells, you name it.
High Tide put in some extra work early with a pre-run and was so kind to let YHC borrow one of his 78 other KBs.
Blazing Saddles was un-phased by the workout. More burpees for you next time to start.
Good to see Prohibition at Meathead, who unquestionably enjoyed the music.
Soul Glow was putting in some hard work this morning from start to finish.
Arena is a Meathead staple and it shows.
Voodoo couldn’t possibly swing a bigger bell, keep it up!
YHC really appreciates Voodoo and Witch Doctor asking me to lead such a stellar crew.
Thanks to Arena for the takeout.
