Dos Hombres Ganando

Date: 2025-06-07 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: Toto FNGs: None COUNT: 2 YHC imagines somewhere in some sort of leadership training class, they teach you to expect the unexpected and be ready to adapt. This morning was one of those mornings. If the early bird gets the worm, then Calvary parking attendants must enjoy a whole lot of worms. With the annual car show set to take place later today, MARTA and YHC were iced out from our usual stomping grounds by these early risers and pushed a few aisles over…until we were told to move again. Accordingly, The Rock and Olympus setup at satellite locations for beatdowns set upon the backdrop of one of those humid summer mornings where you wake up and step outside into an armpit. Muggy. While the vast majority of Olympus regulars were DR, Toto somehow found YHC in the melee and we posted up for a delightful morning of punishment. Toto graciously humored YHC’s nonsense in this off-the-menu week of freestyling. But as Toto quipped, KB workouts are a lot like eating Mexican food…it’s the same couple of ingredients just packaged slightly differently. Are nachos so different from tostadas? YHC submits they are not. Nevertheless, we hit the major food groups on this one for a balanced pump. 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) Pyramid of Snatches and Such – A: Snatches (2x e/s); heavy swings (15x); lawnmower rows (6 e/s) – B: Same as above, but add 2x snatches e/s – C: Same as above, but add 2x more snatches e/s – D: Repeato B – E: Repeato A 2) Palate Cleanser – Alternating 1-handed swings (20x) 3) Clean & Press & Park Complex (EMO2M; 8 mins) – Clean – L; clean – R; press – R; park bell; swing squats (5x); merkins (5x) – Clean – R; clean – L; press – L; park bell; swing squats (5x); merkins (5x) 4) Random Set (Modified Due to Time) – Reverse lunges (5x e/s) – Halos (5x e/w) 5) Squats-o-Rama (2 sets) – Curb-to-curb suitcase…goblet squats (10x) – Curb-to-curb suitcase…front squats (4x e/s) – Curb-to-curb suitcase…transformer squats (3x e/s) – Curb-to-curb suitcase…OH squats (2x e/s) MARY: Enough time for static holds one time through each arm ANNOUNCEMENTS: – :tada: Happy Birthday, MARTA! – :drop_of_blood:Blood drive on 6/20 (see Slack) – :camping: F3 Dad Camp @ Lake Wylie from 8/15-8/17 (see Mountain Momma’s post on Slack) – Obscure German philosophy quote of the day…”We are always living in expectation of better things, at the same time we often repent and long to have the past back again. We look upon the present as something to be put up with while it lasts, and serving only as the way towards our goal. Hence most people, if they glance back when they come to the end life, will find that all along they have been living ad interim: they will be surprised to find the very thing they disregarded and let slip by unenjoyed was just their life – that is to say, it was the very thing in the expectation of which they lived. Of how many a man may it not be said that hope made a fool of him until he danced into the arms of death!” – Schopenhauer
