Paradise City Throwback

The Workout:

YHC went looking for inspriation for a Paradise City workout.  I love digging through BackBlast to see what’s been done before to inform what I’ll do.  It just makes planning a little easier.  I could just ask AI to make me a workout, but there is something about knowing who ran the workout I’m borrowing and when did they run it.  Just feels a little nostalgic and fun.  This one comes from Deadbolt circa 2021 “Spartan 500”

Keep writing backblasts.  You never know who they might inspire to show-up or make leading a workout a little easier.

Our workout today is explained in this picture.  Looking back again at Deadbolts BB, I think the intention was to do all 50 reps at each corner with the goal to move fast enough to complete 10 laps before the end of the workout.

I modified and had us do Merkins in the first lap with 10 at each corner.  With each subsequent exercise replacing the last one through the list.  Deadbolt also prescribed a team-based model.  I opted to keep everyone together.  It was perfect for us in terms of time and it allowed me to keep my pre-blast promises to stay under the former standard of 3 miles.
