The Deck of Suck at Prison Yard
5 Men braved the yard for a new Tactical Reaction deck of suck
Fram, Double D, Sprinkler, Dirty Pipes, and Warden Breach on the Q.
Warm Up: Started as a typical mosey around the parking lot with some 22 rep counts of SSH, Imperial Walkers/Hillbillies and some Windmills. We moseyed back to the start to get the suck started
The Workout: The deck is most certainly stacked against us for this round
The Queen of Diamonds, ahh what a witch she was 400-meter run followed by 25 merkins, 25 Prisoner Squats and 25 LBC’s, we repeated that sequence 2 more times adding 5 reps to each exercise each time.
Time for the 2nd card of fun to be drawn, the 8 of Clubs, might as well been a swift kick in the nuts. 10 burpees, 10 Sumo squats, and 10 Lo-Slo Fludder followed by another run. Repeat this cycle adding 10 reps to each exercise, we are starting to see a very troubling pattern here.
Ahh the 3rd card, maybe, just maybe this one will not suck as bad. WRONG- it’s a burpee ladder, the timer starts at 1 min, you do one burpee then 2 and so each minute until you can no longer add a burpee and complete within the min. We modified this slightly with some mosey to fill the min, repeato for 5 mins to keep things fun and interesting.
The last card- should be interesting and wait for it…fun, right? it’s an Ace, an Ace should be worth something good. It’s more like you had a 2 on the board and now you get an Ace, not really bad, but not really good either. 400m lunges, 400-meter sprint, 100 bear crawl, 100-meter jump squats, and then we ended with a 10 parking spot build a bear.
Mosey back to the start for
Mary: Didn’t feel like we had enough abs in there so we did some modified Homer to Marge from the crab walk position, some penguin heal taps, and finished with some plank rotations.
No one passed out or perished so it was a great day in the Prison Yard
Announcements: Travis Manion WOD at Tiger Blood on 4/29. JOCO is hosting an Oddsey CSAUP on my 22nd (Dirty Pipes has the details)
Prayer: Pray for Dirty Pipes and his family, his mother-in-law has stage 4 pancreatic cancer, pray for healing and for grace in this troubled time. Prayer for POTS and his wife as she had surgery today, pray for a speedy recovery. Thoughts and prayers for our country in these troubled times and for safe journeys for our Military and First Responders as they continue to serve on the front lines to protect us.
