The Backblast of Who Could Care Less

The Backblast of Who Could Care Less

Thirteen Pax found sweet succor in the bosom of 0.0.  Some came to avoid the hills.  Some came to get YUGE.  None came to run.  The step counter didn’t get much work today but the heart rate monitor did.

WARM UP:  1H Alternating Swings, Good Mornings, Prying Squats, Halos.

THANG: Partner up by bell size for doubles pyramids.

• Double swings. x 3-6-9-12-9-6-3.
• Dead Stop Swings 3×5
• Double snatches x 3-6-9-6-3
• Dead Stop Snatches 3×3
• Double Cleans x 3-6-9-12-9-6-3
• Sprinter Stance (single) swings 3×10 (5 ea leg)

Eternal Flame, KB Edition:  Attempt to outlast the Bangles with an alternating press wave.

Pax 1: One bell in rack, press bell overhead and hold. Pax 2-13 does same.  When it gets back to Pax 1 the first bell drops to rack, press the other bell overhead.  I think we made it through 3 or 4 presses ea side before we threw in the towel.  We finished out with 2H swings.

ABBREVIATED MOLESKINE

• Doubles are tough.  Several first timers on the doubles. Not so bad once you get comfortable with that much weight that close to your kneecaps.
• Dead stops are tough.  Form enforcers and quad burners.  That is the proper way to initiate and park the bell, by the way.  Every time.
• Sprinter swings are tough.  Balance is key here.
• The Press Wave is tough.  Thought we’d get a little further than we did….will need to run that back soon.
