Date: 2025-10-01 AO: meathead Q: voodoo PAX: Monopoly, Unplugged, taggart, Pepsi, Uncle Leo, flipper, The Worm, Fotomat, MARTA, Emoji, voodoo, Med Alert FNGs: 1 Med Alert COUNT: 12 It was perfect weather for a workout this morning, as evidenced by the numbers. YHC made the unwise choice to pre-run the workout with a little 5K. More on that later.
WARMUP: SSH x 20 IC 5 swings e/s Sharon Towers x 10 IC 5 cleans e/s Prying squats x 2 Slingshots x 7 each direction
THE THANG: Workout 2 of Week 3 of the new Norwegian 4×4 program.
4:00 AMRAP of: 8 x double front squats 5 x double cleans 3 x bell merkins 2 x double swings 3:00-4:00 of active recovery (carries, walking, Mary) Repeato for 4 rounds.
I believe most of the pax made it through the exercises 3 times each round. YHC only managed 2 the last round before my legs gave out. Perhaps running before this workout was a bad idea. :thinking_face:
MARY: 1:00 elbow plank 1:00 hollow body hold 1:00 glute bridge 1:00 of double static holds Time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: it’s not too late to sign up for Saturday’s blood drive! See MARTA for details.
