YHC has only done one KB workout before, but seeing Warby getting jacked has me thinking I should start swinging (not the PounTrey version, Cookie!). Read some backblasts and watched some videos and was ready to add a KB burn to my week of Crabby escapades! According to the driver of the truck awkwardly looking to do donuts in a parking lot only to find 7 chiseled HIMs tossing iron, here’s what took place…

Mosey around the bus loop to get the heartbeat up, followed by the standard warmup routine.

Opened up with 3 rounds of Crazy 8’s 8x. A brief morning rain shower helped cool things off

E2MOM
15 KB swings, 12 High Pulls, 9 Deadlift Burpees – 2 minutes to complete the circuit.
Rinse & Repeat 6x

Four Corners
Bottoms Up Carry from corner to corner
Corner 1 – 5 Swings, 4 High Pulls, 3 Sumo Squats, 2 Bent Rows each arm, 1 front lunge twist each leg
Corner 2 – 10/8/6/4/2
Corner 3 – 15/12/9/6/3
Corner 4 – 20/16/12/8/4
Rest two minutes, then repeato in reverse order

Few minutes on the clock so we did a circuit of 10x bent rows, 10x cleans 10x goblet squats, rest 20 seconds. 3 rounds of those followed by a mosey and we were at time!

Our math skills were challenged as much as our shoulders and forearms were. Good to see Teddy KGB post for a second time and glad the rain came and went quickly.
