Next Workout: Same Damn thing (only different)

Background:   A buddy recently started working out and told me he did a “fitness test” as a barometer.  I wondered how I’d fare on that test, but I certainly wasn’t going to work out on my own, so figured I’d start Cletus with the test.  Thus, the warmup!

We started with the disclaimer for 2 FNG’s (nice job!), guaranteed we wouldn’t leave them behind, then tore off at a 7 minute pace for the warmup (thanks to the awesome Pax who stayed with the Six)

Warm Up:

As fast as possible, do

  • 1/2 mile
  • 50 SSH
  • 40 Squats
  • 30 WWII
  • 20 Merkins
  • 10 Burpees

Time: 7 min, 6 sec.

Result: YHC was smoked and the rest of the workout was pulling from fumes

Warm Up Part Dos:

20 SSH, 20 Squat Jumps, 20 WWII, 20 Merkins, at a much more reasonable pace

The Workout:

Pt 1:

Indian run to the rocks.  Grab a stationary curling rock and circle up around the volleyball courts.

  • Squat Hold, Overhead Press Rock.  First one in circle throws rock to sand, does a burpee, then runs a lap around the court.  Second man follows after the burpee.  Repeat until all have run a lap
  • Same damn thing, only this time curling the rock
  • SDT, only this time triceps extensions.

Recover with a round of Guantanamo Leg Raises

Followed by Bull Frogs

  • Back to volleyball circle, only this time second man starts after the rock throw (Before burpee)
  • SDT, curling
  • SDT, triceps

Mosey to playground

Crazy Time the 13th

Pax of 7 decided one workout in the gloom wasn’t enough for Friday the 13th and showed up at 4:30AM for a murph. Yellow Card went for his long run (6 miles – kid has legs) and the rest of us Murph’d until we went to our respective workouts.

Warm Up:

1 Mile Run
The Workout:

100 Pull Ups

200 Merkins

300 Squats

1 Mile Run

Then we went off for another beat down.

 

Great work men – way to step up and push yourselves!

YHC means what?

YHC had the Q but first had to explain what YHC meant (it was in the pre-blast – it means Your Humble Coordinator). Who knows, if the 12 pax knew Pikachu had the Q maybe they wouldn’t have shown up (or maybe more would have??)

 

No FNGs in the 90 degree inferno, so we were off.

 

Warm Up:

SSH x15

Standard Merkin x10

Good mornings x15

Fazio arm circles x10 forward/backward

Arm stretches (across chest and over head)

The Workout:

Mosey past the pond to the hand rails/grassy area

Partner up – 1 Pax does 10 upright rows, other does 10 deep squats. Switch and repeat, then do the entire thing again (so each exercise twice total).

Mosey through grass to start of cement near baseball center.

Wheel barrel with partner back to the greenway path, switching half way

Crab walk back to the middle cement, switching directions half way

Mosey to the other side of the central building – pax lined up on their six with feet pointing the same direction at 45 degrees for Gitmo. First pax ran down the line pushing down feet and then lining up at the end, we went through twice each.

Mosey back to the middle building for people’s chair/balls to the wall in a 1:3 ratio, starting at 5:15 IC and going down to 2:6, finishing with 10IC:30 counted straight.
