Burns’ Hell Week Day 3 – The Hill to Nowhere @ Mayhem 11.4.2020

QIC: Burns

PAX: Turnover, Root Canal (WD), Greenspan, Suede, Snake Eyes, Offsides, Burns (WB/QIC)

A cold clear morning and a simply brutal beatdown greeted these HIMs at Mayhem today. Turnover and Root Canal are the only pax remaining who have made all of the Hell Week beatdowns, but we’re up to 16 different pax who have experienced one of them! Keep em coming!

We did a bit of a longer WoR with Abe Vs, Whirlys, Imperial STs, Arm Swirlies F & B, Jack Reachers, and Michael Phelps all x12IC. Then we did a dynamic two laps around the parking lot with high knees, butt kickers, carioca, and shuffles w/arm swings.  At appx 0535 Snake Eyes joined us, right as we moseyed to the base of the famed Hill to Nowhere for the thang.

Break up into teams for Grinders. Station 1 at the bottom of the Hill, Station 2 at the top. The same weinke was posted at each, and the groups are only for timing, because each man was on a #YouVsYou mission to get as far through the provided weinke as possible.

All exercises x75

  • Jump Squats
  • HR Merkins
  • American Hammer (double count)
  • Imperial Storm Squatters (single count)
  • Diamond Merkins
  • Heels to Heaven
  • Reverse Lunges (double count)
  • Merkins
  • Crunchy Frogs
  • Burpees

Each HIM made it through the reverse lunges, and at least Root Canal if not others got all their merkins in. The effort was impressive on all accounts. All pax mentioned quality 2nd F throughout the whole workout, and most complimented it’s brutality and efficiency.

Announcements: YHC has TRQ tomorrow to continue Burns’ Hell Week. There will be no running! Greenspan has WIB. Go to WIB, Greenspan’s iteration is always a treat. Give blood – see Splash for details.

Prayer Requests: Offsides’ friends, Burlaps fam, $5’s health. YHC took us out.

Thanks for the keys, Turnover.
