Remember that time in middle school where you wanted to wear shorts yet your mom said it was too cold? Saturday felt just like that… except we all mature-ish should now to know better better to take wind-chill into consideration.
10 PAX showed up for Saturday’s beatdown at the Blast Furnace. The beat down was a 1/4 mile mosey and a series of warm ups on the stage of the park, followed by:
- A hamsting / yoga inspired stretching sequence… I heard a few “twangs” from everyone’s frozen-rubber-band hamstrings being worked like they were never worked before.
- Partner time! Everyone grabbed the closest man to them for the superset of the century. Each pair had to total: 100 derkins, 200 dips, and 300 LBC’s, all while one of the pair sprinted around the statue of Mr. Reeves. Once the partner returned, the pair switched. Continue until all exercises complete.
- A short Mosey to the Field of Dreams was followed by a partner ab-destroyer – 3×20 rep leg throw downs. Rumor has it Spike has had trouble going back to normal life after the core destruction
- With plenty of energy left, it felt like the perfect time for some Burpee suicides: 25 yards, 5 burpees, 25 yards back, 5 burpees; 50 yards, 10 burpees, 50 yards back, 10 burpees; 100 yards, 15 burpees, 100 yards back, 15 burpees.
- We capped off the morning with some lower back supermans, Nemo’s, and Dori’s, followed by some partner curls-for-the-girls, and partner over-head-tris-for-the-guys.
Good work gentlemen!
