2-Hand Swings x 15 OYO

Mtn. Climbers x 15 IC

Goblet Squat x 15 OYO

AMRAP Challenge: 5 rounds, 3 movements per round, as many reps as possible in 6 minutes per round. 1 lap around the track after each round.

Round 1: x 5 clean & press/x 10 merkins/ x 15 Two Handed Swings

Round 3: Halo x 5 each direction/Around The World x 10 each direction/Figure 8 x 15

Round 5: Snatch x 5 per side/Renegade Rows x 5 per side/clean x 5 per side

2 hand swing/squat thrust ladder: idea is to perform 15 2 hand swings, 15 squat thrusts and keep moving down the ladder until 1 rep of each completed. We all were smoked after the AMRAPs so after we  completed 15 YHC audibled to 10 reps each and then worked our way down to 1 rep.

Mary: LBC x20 IC/Russian Twist x 20 IC(called by Fletch)/Crunchy Frog x 10IC(called by Ickey Shuffle).

Moleskin:

Outstanding work out there today men. It was humid and we were all pouring sweat. in full disclosure, YHC had a hectic schedule this week and puled the same routine I Q’d a week ago at Mint Hill Metal: different group of guys, same smoked result.  Good work getting through the AMRAP cycle, we all had our hands on our knees and were gasping for air at the end of that one. The swing/thrust ladder was an especially brutal way to end the workout. I know I didn’t get all the way through it. Fletch is the only one I know for sure that did. Great having FNG Polar Bear with us today (Jeff M.) hope to see you back out there. Good also to see Quint again, good work as always brother. Thanks to Fletch and Ickey Shuffle for helping me get through Mary. Also thanks for putting up with my extremely eclectic playlist as well #playlistfail.
