YHC arrives a little early, searching for the blocks.  Fortunately Slaw knew where to look.  0700.  Start with mission to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for me, for the invigoration of male community leadership.  No Fng.  Warmup of SSH, IW, gravel pickers, some stretches.  Pledge.

Work out is three 15 minute intervals.  Take down reps by 10 and repeat.  Round 1 was 40 mountain climbers, 30 burpees, 20 bonnie blairs, 10 candlestick merkins.  Round 2, 40 mountain climbers, 30 burpees, 20 bonnie blairs.  Round three, 40 mountain climbers, 30 burpees.  Round four 40 mountain climbers.  Only slaw finished all reps.

Interval two is with blocks.  40 swings, 30 thrusters, 20 bent over row, 10 amercian hammers.  Repeat 40, 30, 20 then  40, 30 then 40.

Interval three was 40 step ups, 30 hand release merkins, 20 blockee, 10 wind shielp wipers holding block.

Time, everyone sufficiently smoked.

A word about importance to doing hard things, both for physical, but also emotional well being.  We have to know we can withstand more than we think we can.

Grab a coupon.

Running Thunder PT test – 12 reps of thrusters, curls, American hammer with block, swings, bent over row, big boys, heels to heaven and burpees.  AMRAP for 25 minutes.   Tough workout.  Have some time remaining so we start back with first three exercises, then take a run across parking lot and back.  Repeat with next three.

The Fighting Yank 5/13

Small group by Yank standards, but quality is what matters most.  Group of high impact men ready to work.  Begin with the mission of F3, to plant grow and serve small workouts groups for men, for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Short disclaimer with no FNG.  Warm up of SSH, gravel pickers, arm circles, stretches, and added a flexibility test.  Hold a low squat position (like a child would) for a minute.  Most except for Jane Fonda failed miserably.  Point to work on men.

YHC asked for rucks to be brought to workout, all had one.  Head out on a light mosey but faster than ruck pace to the pavilion at top of hill.

Workout is simple:  50 step ups each leg, 50 good form merkins, strap on ruck for a fast pace – two laps around the track.  Rinse and repeat.  YHC finished four rounds, some were more, some were less.

Fast pace ruck is similar to blocks and hills, it amps up the intensity.  If want something hard and a little different, give it a try.

Mosey back to Yank.  Pledge.

Announcements: Time laps 5/19, 2nd F lunch 5/24, Murph Memorial day, annihilation part 2 at Yank 6/03, dads at Yank 6/17
