Meatheads at The Maul

Meatheads at The Maul

17 men posted at the Maul this morning expecting the usual bootcamp beat down. Most know that I really enjoy Qing run heavy workouts, but today I decided to take a different approach. So sit back, grab a rock and enjoy. Here’s what we did.

The Thang:

COP – IW X 20, Merkins X 10, Mountain Climbers X 10, Merkins X 10

We moseyed to down the Murderhorn and assembled at the rock pile. YHC instructed everyone to grab a large rock.

We then moseyed over to the club house parking lot with Rocks in hand.

We lined up across the parking lot and the Q instructed the men that no one is allowed to put their rock down until instructed by the Q. The penalty for someone taking a rest is 10 Burpees for the entire group.

Rock/Parking Lot Ladder

Rock Curls X 10 IC, then run across the parking lot

Rock Curls X 10 IC, triceps extensions X 10 IC, walk, then over-head press across the parking lot

Rock Curls X 10 IC, triceps extensions X 10 IC, Squat X 10 IC, then run across the parking lot

Rock Curls X 10 IC, triceps extensions X 10 IC, Squat X 10 IC, Upright rows X 10 IC, then lunge walk across the parking lot

Rock Curls X 10 IC, triceps extensions X 10 IC, Squat X 10 IC, Upright rows X 10 IC, Over-head Press X 10 IC, run across the parking lot

Rock Curls X 10 IC, triceps extensions X 10 IC, Squat X 10 IC, Upright rows X 10 IC, Over-head Press X 10 IC, Squat/Overhead press X 10 IC

We then split into 2 groups. Group 1 headed over to the picnic tables and did two rounds of 25 dips and 25 Durkins and Group 2 went over to the playground for 2 rounds of 10 pull-ups and 25 Merkins, flapjack once your 2 sets are complete.

We then moseyed over to the bottom of the Murderhorn, threw our rocks back in the rock pile, and ran up the Murderhorn, Flutters X 20 to wait for the 6.

We then headed back to launch, but turned left into the field at the top of the murderhorn for the Zoo:

Bearcrawl, Inch Worm, Crab walk, Wide Leg Inch worm all about 40 yards and headed back to launch.

Moleskin:

Today was an odd one. There was almost no mumble chatter (except for Poptarts usual wining). That could mean 1 of 2 things. (1) The workout is tough or (2) the workout was terrible. Not sure which is was, feel free to comment below and give feedback.

5 men showed up for pre-KB work. The rock work made that a bad decision for all involved.

I wanted to take a different approach this morning. We usually do a lot of merkins, burpees and hill runs, but I wanted rocks. After about the 4 set on the rock ladder (total of 6 sets), I honestly didn’t think I would make it to the end of the rock work.

The playground and shelter are always a great place for Pull-ups, dips and durkins. Checkpoint was crushing the pull-ups.

Great work by all today. It was an honor leading the men in The Gloom.
