10 swings
10 mountain climbers
20 swings
10 good mornings
30 swings
10 goblet squats
20 swings
10 snatches
10 swings

Partner up with similar KB, one dude on each end of the field. Note the orange cone in the middle.

Partner 11s

Start on opposite ends of the field. Start with 10 goblet squats, then run across and do and 1 swing. Keep running back and forth, decreasing squat reps and increasing swing reps by one each time. Bonus prize – each time partners cross in the middle at the cones, do 5 burpees each.

Line up for Ark Loader

P1 alternates swings and snatches, P2 does animal thing and sprints back

– Bear
– Crab
– Bearoke L
– Bearoke R
– Lunge
– Reverse Bear
– Suicide
– Double Suicide

Circle up – drop the two lightest KBs from the rotation and add in two 55lb bells. Take a step to the right.

If bell is lighter than the one you brought, do 10 snatches.
If bell is same as the one you brought, do 10 goblet squats
If bell is heavier than the one you brought, do 10 swings

Keep moving one slot the right until 6:15

SKIN:

Not much skin time today, busy trying to get some things done.

I did manage to self-smoke myself today about as much as I ever have (a somewhat common theme at my Qs, but definitely today). I was trying to come up with a good one without being able to do much running. I know it was tough for me, hope you boys got your moneys worth.

Burpees in the middle of the 11s was a rough addition. Didn’t even look good on paper.

Not sure how Team Spackler fared, given that he has started to substitute all burpees with blank stares. I think it got a little awkward.

Everyone seemed to manage the 50+ lb bells just fine in the final circle. I think some of you are sandbagging pretty hard with those 35s. My namby-pamby faint-a-riffic self did most of this workout with a 24kg bell today, so I know some of you can do even more.

Some dudes can bear crawl really fast, some can’t. I think it is a gene. Orange Whip got the gene.

Most I have sweated since the sombrero elevator stalled out during the last family vacation to South of the Border and we had to take the stairs to the top.

Comment away.

That was nasty following the memorial day holiday – plenty of sweat and grass to go around. There were some very fast animal walkers out there. What Spack lacked in Burpees, he more than made up for in Merkins. Thank you for leading Horsehead.

I felt like was holding the water of a camel today.

Well done double H, as usual. The burpees were horrible but they made the workout.

I saw my life flash before my eyes on that elevator at SOB.

Is this to encourage pax to drive down the night before for one of those Union Co workouts?
