Generic Coffee Place, Sweet Rollerblade Move, or Just a Brutal Workout?

Date: 2025-04-26 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: voodoo, MARTA, The Worm, Wabbit, ickey_shuffle, Emoji FNGs: None COUNT: 7 In the chronicles of kettlebell lore, let the record show that today seven pax showed up and got things done. Yes, as foretold yesterday, today was the day we did the thing where we did two things full of multiple things for 15 minutes per thing. Delightful! As deceptively simple as the premise was, today was a grind indeed. Embracing his introduction to this latest program, YHC, as predicted, came out of the gates too quickly. Modifications were made, but the other pax seemed to have the flow down a bit better at the outset. Overall, we were largely left with minimal gas in the tank, but the pax persevered through some static holds and carries with a healthy side of mumblechatter to round out a solid beatdown. Great to see The Worm back in action today! Let’s get into the recap… WARMUP: Swings (10x), prying squats, hi-pulls (5x e/s), synovial circles, one-handed swings (5x e/s), slingshots (7x e/w) THE THANG: 1) AMQRAP #1 (15 min.) – Presses (3x) – Front squats (3x) – Switch hands and repeat above – Merkins (5x) 2) Pelosi Ladder 3) AMQRAP #2 (15 min.) (Note this one was worse than #1) – Thrusters (3x) – One-handed swing (5x) – Rows (3x) – Switch hands to repeat above 4) Hinge Complex (3 sets) – Heavy swings (5x) – Sumo squats (6x) – SLDL (6x e/s) 5) Static holds (2 sets) – Single-bell OH, racked, and suitcase (20 sec. ea.) 6) CARRIES! – Farmer’s – One rack / one suitcase – Farmer’s w/ shrugs MARY: No sir, not today ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Brew ruck (Saturday 5/24) – Blood drive sponsored by Tuna! (Friday 6/20) – Prayers for our brothers undergoing medical operations and navigating future uncertainty – “And so there is no reason for you to think that any man has lived long because he has grey hairs or wrinkles, he has not lived long – he has existed long.” – Seneca – Reminder that we say ‘respect’ in the COT not because a man has collected years of life, but because that man has earned it. He showed up. He put in the work. Encouragement for all of us to keep after it and put in the reps. COT: Joined the pax of the Rock and YHC took out the joint groups.
