What did we ever do to Norway?
Date: 2025-10-04 AO: olympus Q: flipper PAX: Pepsi, Monopoly, Emoji, Wabbit, ickey_shuffle, flipper, taggart FNGs: None COUNT: 7 YHC pulled into the parking lot to find multiple PAX present awaiting the beat down, including taggart so I assumed I was 30 minutes late. Luckily my sleep deprived brain was corrected by the big man who quickly gave us the explanation for his early arrival, weird that he’d have an excuse for being on time? Eventually we were joined by Ickey and a slightly late Monopoly and we got into it.
WARMUP: SSH, IW, ST, Arm Circles, prying squat, assorted KB movements THE THANG: yet another episode of the hateful Norwegian 4X4, this time it was AMRAP sets of 5 each of double cleans, rows, presses, and front squats. Truly awful.
After that nonsense we did a farmers walkabout, pausing for merkins each time YHC’s grip was approaching failure.
For my next surprise we did another set of 4 minute AMRAPs but only 2X times. 10 each of Heavy Swings, Merkins, and Jump Squats. There was some very suspect form on the Jump Squats, so clearly we’ll need to work those in more.
Shoutout to Newbies Monopoly and Pepsi who keep showing up and getting stronger. Emoji , as per usual, exercised his mouth all the way through, and Wabbit discussed sports each time he caught his breath. ickey_shuffle took advantage of a true big boy bell during the bonus AMRAPs and taggart continues to drop weight like it offended his sensitive palate. As for YHC, it was a struggle bus day after having a college flashback at the PapaRoach show last night, but the work got done. Thanks to Krzyzewski for entrusting me with guiding the PAX today, truly a beautiful morning MARY: did some of that including PAX favorite boat canoe, plus bonus plankorama during active rest periods ANNOUNCEMENTS: Can Ruck, Holiday party COT: Nantan take out with TheRock.
