Mr Webb’s Cinder Blocks

BRR training is on. From the Monday evening heat index death march to EEs baked ziti dish run of hills and mileage yesterday. Time to balance it out a little bit. Pre-Blast advised no KBs needed but Overdrive is all gear now (even I begrudgingly accept this). So, what in the world. Let’s mosey to figure this thing out.

Mosey to behind SV Middle School.

Who needs KBs when you have Madison’s Cinder Blocks. Bless you Madison. There are 10 men (and 2 2.0s) but only 8 Cinder Blocks. I’ve planned for this. The Q will not fail you.

Cinder Blocks carried to the field and we get into a circle for a little Jack Webb. Here’s the deal: We will keep the ratio at 1 merkin:4 cinder block presses (2:8, 3:12, etc.). When done with that round of air presses, pass the cinder block to your left and 2 guys get to do just regular air presses on the next round. Call it a blessing if you will if you don’t have the block especially for the 10:40 round. 2.0s just do regular Jack Webb. #lucky

Carry your cinder block to the road where there is a tire on both sides of the road. Here’s the plan: 8 guys do AMRAP exercises with their cinder block while two guys flip the tires 5 times down the road and back. 2.0s use the big tire laying on it’s side for jump ups, decline merkins, etc.

No way I remember all the exercises right but will try my best.
Round 1:
Curls
Overhead Presses
Squats
Triceps
Flutter Press

Recovery run to intersection and back

Round 2:
Good Mornings
Jump Over block side to side
Toe Taps
Diamond Incline Merkins
Hold block straight out in front of you

Recovery run to intersection and back

Round 3:
Greg Louganis (Sit up w/ a cinder block press)
Decline Merkins
Burpees
Triceps (since I missed the first round flipping the tires)
Dolly Press

We put the tires/cinder blocks back.

– Hairband texts me late yesterday that he can’t make it because he has to take his 2.0 to soccer tryouts. About 30 minutes later, Smokey texts me that he’s coming to Overdrive so he can take his 2.0 to soccer tryouts. #busted #truthalwayscomesout
– Madison apparently nearly collapsed during Windmills. Not sure what was going on but felt it better to not ask. #notaprofessional #gavethedisclaimer
– EE circled back to get The Count who apparently forgot that a 5:30 AM workout starts at 5:30 AM
– How in the world does EE end up without a cinder block on the 10:40 round of Jack Webb? Life’s unfair sometimes
– Apparently, everyone interpreted a mosey recovery run as a slow mosey. Well, everyone except for Smokey, EE, Ranger and YHC. Madison let us know about the confusion. Sorry brother!
– Who is that guy with the bandana looking like a beardless Duck Dynasty brother? Kotters to The Count
– Glad to have Smokey out. Good to see at least one soccer father who is committed. Cough…HB…Cough
– Great to have The Bus and 23 join us along with Posse and Ranger. Ranger and 23 are best friends so cool to see both of them pushing each other already.
– Speaking of Posse, dude has mad tire rolling skills. Almost rolled it all the way through the woods before chasing it down.
– Woody seemed to really enjoy getting to know Mr Webb. He is a swell fella.
– Bernanke/Nomad just busted through the whole thing with no complaints. #wisdom Well, they weren’t really close to me so they might have been complaining but I didn’t hear it
– Always good to start and finish with Mr Webb. I seriously had a ‘Oh that’s sore’ moment picking up my water glass at breakfast.
– Think that’s all I got for this non-normal GJ Q. Best of luck trying to accomplish anything with your arms today.

Wow, see some guys step up to be care takers and not always let the M. do that job. #MoreThanChauffer 😉

And since Jack has been a long time friend of mine I’m impressed at his 2 visits and will set that up in the future also.

I learned that it’s best to keep your eyes open when doing the windmill. And, for the record, there is a difference between a recovery mosey and AYG to the sign and back. Strong work by everyone out there this AM. Mr Webb was a beast! Don’t you agree, Hair Band? Oh, wait…..

I cannot deny that not being up at 4:30am was nice.
