No Mudding, No Running, Still Painful

No Mudding, No Running, Still Painful

14 PAX showed up at The Matrix to celebrate Christopher Columbus swindling the Queen of Spain out of a boat some 521 years ago.  After Saturday’s Mud Run YHC kept this one clean and with limited running – save for an Indian Run to honor the locals Columbus found when he arrived.

Grab a partner and head to the wall.

• P1:  Sit on the wall, P2: Merkins.  200 Merkins per team, one man must be on the wall at all times.  Rotate as needed.

Solid effort and teamwork here, PAX was very quiet and very gassed.

Mosey to parking lot for Mary

• LBC x25
• Flutter x25
• Dolly x25
• Russian twist x9 – YHC form and count fell apart on this one
• Burpee’s x10 OYO to round out the morning

Moleskin:

Was good to see the PAX pushing hard to failure on the combination of static and dynamic exercises.  The combination of the lunges and forearm planks was a far bigger leg burn than YHC anticipated.  Good times.

Announcements:
