Apparently You Can Get a DUI on a Bicycle

Date: 2025-10-11 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: Mountain Momma, MARTA, voodoo, The Worm, Monopoly, hoover FNGs: None COUNT: 7 A stunning cool and crisp fall morning set the backdrop for what would be an arduous beatdown worthy of the Norse gods’ approval this morning. Like some sort of amoeba, the group of pax started small and began to grow over the course of the pump. With a state of the union address given south of the border (and faulty alarm clocks?) tying up a handful of pax, we eventually rounded out to seven strong by the close. Great to see the usual suspects and awesome to have Monopoly join us gear heads consistently over the past few weeks. Gratitude seems to be en vogue these day, but YHC wanted to express a heartfelt thank you to all the pax that post each week. Our hobby of swinging metal towards Valhalla is niche to say the least, but it continually amazes YHC that strong numbers continue to turn out and support each other as we all work to get stronger, fitter, and faster. With that, 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) Voodoo Complex EMOM (4 sets) – Voodoo complex (1x e/s each min.; 2x each movement on the last set) 2) Norwegian 4×4 – Single Bells (4 sets) – Cleans (1 min.) – Merkins (1 min.) – Front squats (1 min.) – Presses (1 min.) – Active recovery (3 min.) 3) Mirrored 6/5/4 Complex (3 sets) – Side A – Lawnmower rows (6x e/s) – Sumo squats (5x) – Heavy double KB deadlift (4x) – Side B – Upright rows (6x) – Sumo squats (5x) – SLDL (4x e/s) MARY: …just enough time for a 45 sec. glutebridge ANNOUNCEMENTS: – :canned_food: Canned Food Ruck (11/15) – the gist of this activity is rucking with canned food to and fro breweries to eventually donate said cans to a food bank…is it a clever idea to throw off your M about day drinking or is it a genuine attempt at exercise and a good cause? Only you can decide (see Slack for details) – :christmas_tree: Area-51 Holiday Party (12/7) supposedly at Hops’ house. More details to come… – :man-wrestling: Festivus Convergence (12/13) – BIG, MASSIVE, YUGE convergence with all Saturday workouts. You won’t want to miss this one (see Slack for details) – :scroll: “Leave the past behind, let the grand design take care of the future, and instead only rightly guide the present to reverence and justice. Reverence so that you’ll love what you’ve been allotted, for nature brought you both to each other. Justice so that you’ll speak the truth freely and without evasion, and so that you’ll act only as the law and value of things require.” – Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 12.1 COT: Mountain Momma took out the joint groups in COT
