OUTDOOR WORKOUTS
FOR MEN

2 for 2 for weekday KB workout Qs this week. Lots of pent up energy following weeks without posting so appreciation to the PAX who put up with me this week. Its been a tough road dealing with early morning responsibilities while the M is fighting her fight, so taking advantage of fall break alleviating bus duties was first in my mind heading into Monday. The gloom is good for the soul and you Meatheads delivered effort and fellowship in equal measures this week, my gratitude abounds. WARMUP: The usual - SSH, Swings, IW, Tactical Cleans, ST, Prying Sqauat THE THANG: RDL - 5 X 6 Bent Over Row - 5 X6 High Pull - 4 X 6/side SLDL - 2 X 10/side Snatch - 5/side EMOM (the PAX declined my invitation to do those tactical, not sure why) MARY: she declined to attend due to time ANNOUNCEMENTS: Blanks wasn't there so... none COT: YHC took us out and MARTA provided the java... it was a good day

5 PAX and Linc for about 3 miles at 2nd F pace. Down Community House to Upper, cheered on The Brave, then through The Bowl, off-roading onto the Ballantyne Crash Course, then back up Lower, behind the buildings to Ballantyne Commons Pkwy, back to launch. Some of us got in 50 Merkins, others got squats, We all got in on some good conversation. Really enjoyed the ruck, and had a great Coffeteria launch at Wegmans after! A great morning!!

Prerun with kirby, attempting to empty all the phlegm in his lungs before the main event. We got between 1/2 mile and 7/10 miles.. WARMUP: Run a lap around parking lot, stopping on the US world map for a single SSH before the main event. THE THANG: Run 4 miles in 45 minutes, stopping for merkins, squats and quality wildturkey mumblechatter. There were seriously at least 10 quality TWSS lines in there, as wildturkeylikened pieces of the workout to his honeymoon. Ducky just crushed his longest run in the last decade, doing more before 6:30 than what most men will do the entire week. Roulette has some sneaky burst speed, showing it off on the 100M sprints on the Community House track. We encountered other runners on the track, including a middle-aged female who fell awkwardly on the way down to the track. kirby still has COVID, but didn't let that get in the way of slaying the run. D’ DoctoR is a glutton for merkin punishment and did at least 250 merkins during the workout while running 4+ miles. MARY: Made an appearance. ANNOUNCEMENTS: 10/24 Beer Run. COT: We shook it up this morning, taking the time to go around the circle, sharing 1 peak or valley/1 thing on our heart/mind, whether good or bad. Quickly realized we're going through a lot of similar challenges, with our 2.0's or our M's. Grateful for this group of High Impact Men and knowing that we can lock shields together to get through the highs and the lows, knowing that we don't have to fight alone.
