Day 2 2015 Throwback Week – Possum Trot

/in /by

Day 2 of 2015 Throwback week truly felt like an OG workout. YHC pulled into the lot, planted the flag, hid the speaker on the court, then walked over to the larger than normal crowd. To my surprise there were 4-5 HIM that were at my first post and some other familiar faces I haven’t seen a quite a while. After pounding and greeting each PAX, it was 0530. The F3 mission statement took place along with the 5 core principles. Fram then decided to jog up so we could get our morning share of 5 burpees. Good thing we didn’t do these back in the day when Tardy would show up 2-3 mins into every workout. Here’s what happened at the Trot.

Warm Ups
We saluted New Mexico with follow the leader quick feet and slides on the tennis courts to start off then moseyed down to the concession stand area.
– Smurf Jacks
– Imperial Squat Walkers
– Bat Wings
– Slaloms

Wall Work
PAX found a spot on the small wall for dirkens and box jumps. Started with 10 each then 9 each all the way down to 1 each.

Jacob’s Ladder (another classic by New Mexico)
PAX lined up on the hill next to the baseball field. Back peddle up the hill, 3 star jumps, run down the hill, increasing burpees for each trip down. PAX did this 7 times.
Two lines for an Indian run back up to the tennis courts.

Tennic Courts
Each IR line stayed together for Chilly Broad Jumps across all four courts. PAX lined up about 2-3 feet apart in a chill-cut plank. Guy at the end broad jumps over each PAX legs until the end then gets in line. Repeat until we got to the fence.

Bearicides – PAX bear crawled to the end of the first court, ran back, perfomed 5 hand release merkins. Repeat to the end of second, third and yes all the way down to the fourth court.

Sally – PAX performed the squats while listening to Sally song. Quite a burner.

Mary – W2CC x15 IC
– Strict sit ups
– Side plank ups L
– Side plank ups R
– Reverse LBCs
– Mtn climber twist (touch knee to opposite elbow)

COT
Announcements: Paint the fence 2nd F, F3 Picnic, Rico’s soccer kids accomplishment
Prayers: All mainly unspoken

Great turnout today for this workout. It was such a surprise to see guys I worked out with for the first 5+ years in F3 all the time. Hope to see them more soon. Thanks for letting me lead such a strong group of HIM.

Day 1 2015 Throwback Week – Mutiny

/in , /by

YHC has the privilege of leading the four original AO’s that were offered in 2015 when I first started this week. It will be a build up to my 10 year anniversary on Friday. We start out with Mutiny. YHC has completed maybe a hundred or more workouts at this AO throughout the years. Today we remembered one of my first posts here that was delivered by Brett Michaels…”The Michigan”. It was super tough back then and still can be today depending on how much you push yourself. Anyway, here is the workout we did.

Warm Ups
Mosey from upper circle down and around circle drive and back up.
– Good Mornings
– SSH
– Michael Phelps
– Frankensteins
– Plank Jacks

Clock Merkins – Rotating to each hour while in a plank position and performed the number of merkins for each hour. Ex. 3 merkins for 3 o’clock. When completed, it was 78 total merkins.

PAX moseyed up to the upper field for “The Michigan”
Ten 100 yd dashes – 2 M&H
Eight 80 yd dashes – 4 M&H
Six 60 yd dashes – 6 M&H
Four 40 yd dashes – 8 M&H
Two 20 yd dashes – 10 M&H
M&H = Merkins and 2X Hallelujahs
We built our speed over the progression of the dashes.

Next, we moseyed down to the parking spaces for Build-A-Bears.
Start at the end of the parking line, do a burpee, bear crawl the line to the curb, do a merkin on the curb, slide plank across the curb to the next line, do another merkin, crawl bear back down the line and perform another burpee. We did this 5 times total.

We then went to the tennis courts.
Balls to the Fence shoulder taps x10 IC then into Hallelujah wall sits x10 IC for 3 rds.
