Cold Kettlebell R&D

Date: 2024-12-14 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: voodoo, taggart, Unplugged, Emoji, ickey_shuffle, The Worm, Floyd, Omaha, Sweetchuck FNGs: None COUNT: 10 Although the allure of the fartsack was as strong as its aroma this frigid morn, ten pax chose discomfort and got better. Awesome to have Emoji’s neighbor, Sweetchuck, join us and great to have Taggart come in hot for another week. And, yes, The Worm’s triumphant return this week provided a shot in the arm for all of the pax to tackle, what a diplomatic pax would call, “an idiosyncratic weinke”. Armed with nothing but a clean sheet of paper, YHC went to work trying out some new combos and moves ‘for science!’ this week. All told, the weinke kept us moving and if you didn’t like one exercise, we quickly jumped to something else. Be forewarned, more wackiness is in the pipeline for next week’s beatdown – should be up-tempo and equally groan-inducing. Let’s get into this week’s recap… WARMUP: Swings (10x), prying squats, hi-pulls (5x e/s), synovial circles, slingshots (7x e/w) THE THANG: 1) Deadlift/Cleans (3 sets) – Single bell deadlift to deadlift clean (5x e/s) 2) Swing Circuit (3 sets) – A: Two-handed swings (15x); swing squats – thanks, Flipper!

Decks in the rain

Date: 2024-12-11 AO: wamrap Q: Alf PAX: Orange Whip, O’Tannenbaum, Split Squats FNGs: 1 Split Squats COUNT: 3 3 Regulars and one guy OT roped into the workout last night after they downed two Manhattan’s and a few tequila shooters. #businessmeeting
It was wet. We hit the parking decks for 5 exercise stations, ramp climbs and some burpees.
FNG hung in there, but he was used to the Cross Fit 12 Min AMRAP and the 45 minutes did him in! He did bring the obligatory FNG water bottle so there is that.
Orange Whip with a great take out this AM.

3 Amigos avoided el Guapo…

Date: 2024-12-11 AO: anvil Q: Point Break PAX: lorax, Limey FNGs: None COUNT: 3 The Thang
Did some site prep ahead of launch to minimize the time the group would be out in the rain.
5:30, light/brief/non-existent disclaimer and we were off.
Mosey over to the covered walkways near the AstroTurf semi-circle.
Warm-Up Exercises in cadence: · SSH x 15 · IW x 15 · Mountain Climbers x 10 · Merkins x 10 · Some Broga Posing
The rest of the workout occurred right here under the canopy. YHC had set up four pain stations across the walkways to leverage for the workout. Originally, I had planned for 5 PAX so that we could have a runner as our timer. But with only three PAX to speak of, modifications were necessary. So rather than use a runner/timer, we opted to do circuits of 25 exercises at each station and rotate through.
Station 1: Merkins · ROUND 1: CCDs · ROUND 2: Wide Arm · ROUND 3: Regular · ROUND 4: Diamond · ROUND 5: Hand Release
Station 2: Abs · ROUND 1: LBCs · ROUND 2: American Hammers · ROUND 3: Big Boys · ROUND 4: Flutter · ROUND 5: Heels to Heaven
Station 3: Legs · ROUND 1: Squats · ROUND 2: Jump Squats · ROUND 3: Lunges · ROUND 4: People’s Chair w/ Arm Raises · ROUND 5: Calf Raises
Station 4: Cinder Block Work · ROUND 1: Curls · ROUND 2: Chest Press · ROUND 3: Triceps · ROUND 4: Bent-Over Rows · ROUND 5: Around the World
Ended up completing the 5 rounds and then another 3 before we mosey’d back to launch.
