This back blast is very late, but better late than never they always say!
YHC set out to do a simple, high mileage beatdown, keeping in line with YHCs training goal of steadily increasing mileage week after week.
So the plan was simple, 3 exercises, 16 reps each (after the date). Hmmm, what exercises? Pull ups! Burpees! But wait… 16 of those is a bit excessive… Okay sooo it went like this:
The Thang
- Run the long way around the parking lot, from station to station, performing the following reps:
- Station 1 – At the Pull-Up Bars
- 8 Pull-ups
- 8 Toes to bar
- Station 2a – At the speed bump
- 8 Burpees
- Station 3 – At the far corner of the parking lot
- 16 Mike Tysons
- Station 2b – At the speed bump
- 8 burpees
- Repeato until time is up!
CoT
- Prayers for Ziffle and wisdom and a speedy recovery
- YHC took us out giving thanks.
NMM
- Cherry Pie led the charge and YHC rode his coattails.
- Cherry Pie didn’t act his age, but we was a gentleman nonetheless
- Cherry Pie was not a fan of toes to bars, due to the strain on the shoulder. This is true.
- Zima gave the lame excuse of a hurt knee slowing him down… okay no, that’s actually a valid reason.
- Huck loved the burpees but hated everything else.
- YHC loved the pullups, and used it as an opportunity to advertise Supermax on Saturday’s at 0600.
- Workbench, being the typical manly man that he is, complained the least of the entire crew.
- The PAX all agreed that this was a simple and very effective beatdown, totaling approximately 3 miles for everyone!
Thanks for attending men, and thanks for the keys Root! Now that I’ve written my backblast, can I be invited back to Q?!
