8 Pax total at Midoriyama on Tuesday. Guess what? It was hot! Despite that, Pockets was out early getting in his burpees for his IW challenge. Whoppee would have been proud as he was listening to some George Straight for motivation. I noted it wasn’t a very motivating song but you do you.

Warmup: 

SSH ic x 10

Morrocan Nightclubs OYO

Seal Jacks ic x 10

Grab a block from my truck and lets mosey over to the parking lot.

The Thang:

There were 6 stations setup around the island in the parking lot. Each had an exercise listed to do with the block. After the exercise you leave your block and run a lap. When you return to your block you rifle carry it to the next station where you repeat this process. We had enough for 2 circuits or 12 stations all reps were x 20. It looked this below.

Overhead press x 20, Run a lap, Rifle carry to the next station

The rest of the exercises are below

Curls

Avalanche-Lying on your back with the block above your head on the ground lift it over your chest and back to the ground above your head.

We had a few minutes left so we did some more rifle carries and blockees through the parking lot while Def Leppard made a sweep through to pick up my cones and papers, thank you sir.

Naked Moleskin:

I’d like to say everyone pushed the rock today but I heard a lot of I can’t do that or I’m just not going to do that! I get that sometimes we have to modify things for injuries or whatever but sometimes things will just be uncomfortable until we do it and get used to it. That’s what Slaw always says anyway. Either way I think most got a little better. Working out on that hot asphalt in the sun has got to be making us tougher if nothing else.
