A Rope, Murder, and Tachycardia

/in /by

FNGs: None

Warm Up: Warmed up with SSH IC, Daisy Pickers IC , Willie Mayes Hayes IC, and stretching.

The Workout:

  • After retrieving some frigid Cindys from the cache, we begin main event #1 with some traveling Bunny Pounders (Murder Bunnies with Cindy for traveling along the parking lot and ascending reps of Ground Pounders at each line for 13 parking spaces. At the far end we retraced our route traveling by lung walks and stopping at each line for an ascending rep count of sumo squats all while hugging our Cindy tight to the chest. (Don’t want Cindy to get too cold )
  • For main event #2, we assumed formation around the Battle Rope with Cindys at the ready. With the rope looped around a study (and icy) light pole, each man took a turn churning out 30 rope slams as fast and hard as possible while the onlookers held a squat and contemplated their life choices. Once the man on the rope finished, he checked in heart rate and divided by 10 to determine the number of reps that the squatting onlookers were required to perform. (HR 135 = 13 Reps, HR 150 = 15 Reps, etc). The harder and faster you go on the rope , the more pain you impose on the group. As the man on the rope gasped cold humid air, the onlookers dutifully banged out their reps. These sets were repeated until each man had a chance on the rope. The mandatory exercise was changed for the next round and the cycle continued for four rounds .
    • Rope + Off-set Merkins (on the Cindy)
    • Rope + Curls fu du Gurls (with Cindy)
    • Rope + Calf Raises (on the Cindy)
    • Rope + Mountain Climbers IC (next to Cindy)

Mary: Stretching

Announcements: Q’em All Challenge, Post Tracker (Self-Accountability)

Prayer: None named but prayed for the day and the PAX in general.
