So last Friday after YHC got back from ENC and Raleigh he ran into Gavel at HH in Belmont. Gavel said he had it at The Yank but if anyone wanted it, step up! So YHC did just that. And a collective groan went up among the natives! Here’s why:

COP:

SS – Burpees X 5

IWs X 20

Gravel Pickers X 20

Tesla Stretches

Mtn. Climbers X 20

Half pipe time!

Top: 20 step ups total, 2 burpees at bottom of the hill at fountain, 10 MHs on the next top, back the other way w/2 burpee bottom. 2X.

Head to the field of Dreams!

Herbbies ,(dedicated to the late, great Herb Brooks, coach of the US Hockey team in 1980 that beat the Soviets) and his conditioning fanaticism which worked.

5 burpees, run across the field.

5 burpees, 10 jump squats, run

5 burpees, 10 jump squats, 15 CDDs, run

5 burpees, 10 jump squats, 15 CDDs, 20 merkins, run

5 burpees, 10 jump squats, 15 CDDs, 20 merkins, 25 SSH

Broad jump halfway back, 5 rounds of chop-chop grass drills.

Burpee broad jump to the other side, rinse and repeat last round above.

Adjourn for another half pipe as above. Wind up on the playground.

10 pull ups

10 LBCs

10 HR merkins.

Run to the top of the stairs and give us a burpee.

3X

4th Quarter! Bear Bryant time. Winning is not imperative but getting tougher in the 4th quarter is! So, let’s make it happen.

BEAR CRAWL SLALOM! Pax was gassed (as they should be) so this was tough. Everyone got I think 3 if not 4 turns.

SSH X 10

Middle of the field for chop-chop grass drill again. This time when Q said “go” instead of “down” sprint to the finish.

Back to the benches.

10 dips.

10 dirkins

10 step ups.

Done! Go to the flag.

NMM:

We put the work in here boys! Just like we always do. That’s a good thing! Need a push don’t we? And maybe some buttermilk to make it all go down right.

Prayers up for Anchorman right now. We got him. Others as well.

Privilege to lead The Fighting Yank always.
