Ballantyne’s Bermuda Triangle or Rhombus or something close.

Ballantyne’s Bermuda Triangle or Rhombus or something close.

9 Strong Men decided to start the day and weekend off right and ignored the possibility of rain and got after it.

With 1 FNG, and a 2.0 making his second post, a more deliberate disclaimer was provided, and off we went.

Quick Mosey to the parking deck behind the theater.

The Thang was explained/demonstrated.

Run up the parking deck to top, 10 burpees, down the stairs, over to Costigan Park’s fountain (yes that area has a name) for 20 single leg split squats per leg, then 20 derkins, once done, continue down Durant Blvd to Ballantyne Commons Pkwy- turn right, run up the hill – stop at the corner of Costigan Ln for 20 jump squats, then AYG back to the parking deck – 1 lap.

YHC ran the pax thru the first lap to show proper form at a mosey pace, then cut everyone loose to go at your own pace. At the parking deck, alternate between going up the ramp and down the stairs and going up the stairs and down the ramp.

Goal was push yourself and get as many laps in by 6:10 the mosey back to launch point.
After the quick mosey back, just enough time for Mary

Ground windshield wipers x 10 in cadence – #harderthantheylook.

Finished.

Solid work by everyone today – this one was sneaky hard – not too complicated but a grinder. YHC hasn’t had a grinder kind of workout like this in a while and one was due. Thanks for humoring YHC and joining for the fun this AM.

Most groups were between 4 and 5 laps – strong work. 40 – 50 burpees, 80 – 100 split squats per leg, 80 – 100 derkins, 80 – 100 jumpsquats and over 4.5 miles of fun running.

Welcome to FNG – Walk-On – Leon Gamble – walked on and played receiver for the Gamecocks. Frehley’s then tried to talk him into going to see Clemson play in the National Championship. Walk-On – glad you have you out. The workouts will not get any easier, but you will get better – keep at it. Pebbles will make sure you do I’m sure.

Solid work too by Pumba, Wild Boar’s 2.0 – only 15 and making his second post – this one wasn’t easy, but he kept at it and pushed thru.

And all the usual suspects make strong work of the workout today. Cable Guy out front, and Fire Hazard, Frehely’s, Wingman and YHC kept each other company thru the pain.

It’s an honor to lead this group of men. Thanks for following.

If you haven’t done it, sign up to Q – reach out to YHC, Fire Hazard or Madame Tussauds – we will get you signed up. You can do it, just take the leap.

Shout out below if anything was missed.
