WARMUP: Mosey to Sarah’s Y for standard warmup. Extra attention paid to warming the arms up for what was to come. THE THANG: YHC had prelaid out some station work at the bull statues. Stations were set up in a circle with a cone in the middle of the circle. 8 total stations, 4 with gear and 4 would be body weight exercises. Concept was pick a station, do said exercise then bear crawl to the center cone. Plank until everyone gets to center cone then crawl bear back to your station. Then rotate clockwise to the next station. Concept was time under tension. For kicks once we finished a round of all stations we took a lap around the bull ring. Exercises were as follows: 10/12 lb dumbbells Rd 1= 12 side lat raises and Rd 2 = 12 front lat raises
35/45 lb kettlebells Rd 1 = 5 snatches each arm and Rd 2 = 5 cleans each arm
20/25 lb dumbbells Rd 1= 8 hammer curls each arm and Rd 2= 8 preacher curls each arm
Cinder block Rd 1 = 12 bent over rows and Rd 2 = 12 upright rows
Body weight stations Rd 1 = 10 merkins and Rd 2 = 10 dying cockroaches
Market Timer said, and I quote, “we should do another round and do crab walk instead of bear crawl.” So a man of the people YHC called a 3rd round. Pax chose which exercise they did at the gear stations and YHC called 10 floor wipers at the body weight stations.
MARY: She was present throughout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Cheese Curd thinks Ballantyne proper is pretty. Roulette with the good reminder that we should be thankful for those guys that get up and show up bc without that none of us would be able to do this.
COT: Mumblechatter was somewhat muted throughout but when it was present it was classic. Topics covered expressing dog’s anal glands, the 4th F being Foot High Fives, serious workout injuries caused by slipping on paper and various other discussions that aren’t fit for writing out. It is this mumblechatter that makes the workouts bearable. And t-claps to Cheese Curd for being the voice of reason and telling me the workout sucked thus balancing out compliments about the workout. Gotta stay grounded. Enjoyed hearing Hawkeye’s journey to Charlotte…those stories always intrigue me. T-claps to Market Timer for coming through on his promise of 3 posts this week. Strong work. Roulette is crushing it and taking advantage of all the various workouts that F3 offers: gear, run, ruck, bootcamp. You name it and he is doing it.
