Reminder to all of us that self-reliance is a trap, we cannot trust in our own flesh and in our own ability to solve all our problems. Blessings come from above and not from our own ability to make things happen.

MOLESKIN:
I planned on running this Q up on the soccer field across the street, but it was so dark I couldn’t see the cones when they were 10 feet away.
Oh well… Whatever kind of grass that is near the AO smells pretty nice. I guess it’s whatever they put on there to cover up the odor of the dog excrement…
Thanks to Mayberry for today’s title. Definitely appreciated the “I love hate you right now, Waxjob” toward the end of the beatdown.

Heavy Metal

THE SCENE: 35 and clear

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

  • Stretch OYO
  • Merkins x 10 IC
  • SSH x 20 IC
  • LBAC fwd/bkwd x 10 IC
  • Squats x 10 IC
  • Run a lap around the island

THA-THANG:
Grab something heavy and begin a slow mosey.  Weights consisted of Ratchet’s gas cans, several kettlebells, 30, 25, 20 lb dumbbells, and the golden cmu.  We moseyed for about 100-150 yards at a time around the park, stopping for 25 reps of the following exercises.

  • Burpees
  • Nose wipers
  • Squats
  • Gas pumpers
  • Curls
  • Dry Docks

Once we reached the paved hill by the bathrooms.  11’s….sort of.  We started out doing 11’s but then the QIC changed it to just 10 reps at the top and 10 reps at the bottom each time.  Merkins at the top, Squats at the bottom.   Each trip up the hill the PAX carried all the weight and were allowed to leave the lightest weight at the top of the hill.  We were done once we’d worked our way down to just a single 87lb gas can.   Probably 10 or 11 trips up and down the hill with the weight.

Mosey back to the AO with the weight.  Stop along the way for sets of 25 of the following:

  • Dips
  • American Hammers
  • Burpees

MARY:

  • Star Crunch x 10 IC
  • Heel ups x 10 IC
