Doubles return to Meathead

Seven bros posted to Meathead this morning ready to put in some work. YHC delivered an ad lib version of the disclaimer and started the tunes prior to warm up.

COP:

  • SSH x 15 IC – because it’s not F3 without SSH
  • Swings x 20 OYO
  • Halos x 10 each way
  • Prying squats x 5

100 swing/10 press warm up:

  • 10 swings (any hand placement)/1 press per side
  • 15 swings / 2 presses per side
  • 25 swings / 3 presses per side
  • 50 swings / 4 presses per side – try not to put the bell down during the swings

The Thang:

Partner up by bell size for doubles. One partner works while the other recovers until you hit the total number of reps. Reps don’t have to be divided evenly between partners.

  • Double swing x 100
  • Double snatch x 50
  • Double racked squat x 100
  • Double clean x 100
  • Double press x 50

Mary:

  • Blazing saddles – LBC x 50 OYO
  • Bulldog – some Louganis/press BS he devised – 1 Louganis + 2 flutter presses, 2 Louganis + 4 flutter presses, up to 5 Louganis + 10 flutter presses

COTThanks to Tackling Dummy for the takeout

Announcements:

  • FNG day at the Maul next Wednesday. Pre-blast is here.
  • Death Valley converging at Anvil next Wednesday, followed by coffeeteria. Pre-blast is here.
  • Please read the pre-blast for Speed for Need here and consider donating if you can.

Moleskin:

  • Thanks to the pax for coming out for my Q. It had been a while since I’d done doubles and IMHO they really require the push/accountability of the group setting to get the most out of them (because they suck).
  • This is an old Tiger Rag workout that I attended and did not enjoy. I’ve been saving it for a while and felt like this was a good time to bring it out.
  • The pax were crushing it out there. The triumvirate of Bulldog, Tackling Dummy, and High Tide seemed to finish all of the exercises first. Sanka and Blazing Saddles were pushing hard across the circle and my partner, Witch Doctor, was crushing it. He even mixed in the double 24s a few times while YHC stuck to the double 20s, which were crushing me.
  • Thanks to High Tide and Brown for their leadership at the site. Meathead is a great strength-building option and a great way to mix in a 0.0 workout to offset all the running we do in F3.
  • Please sound off below with anything YHC missed.

SYITG,

Voodoo

T-claps, Voodoo. Tough one.

Perhaps we name the new Mary exercise after its creator, The Bulldog.
