  • This is my cindy, there are many like it, but this one is mine.

    Seven dudes got swole for another Flex Friday at Satan’s Hill. 

    Disclaimers and bienvenidos. 

    Warmorama: SSH (20), IW (20), copper head squats (10), Dead Man Hang (Center, Left, Right), Fwd and Rev Arm Circles (15 2x), Muricans (10x), mountain climbers (20x), calf stretches, stretch OYO for 45 seconds. 

    The thang: 

    Part 1: Mosey to our brand new cinderblocks, still have that fresh baked smell. 

    3x rounds of: Sumo squats, Regular squat, dead lifts, and lunges with Cindy. Each lift about 30 seconds performing as many clean reps as can be done. Between each lift we performed 10 SSH. Each round ended with cindy farmer carry accross parking lot and back. 

    Part 2: Mosey to the log pile carrying cindys. Setup 4 logs with two man teams. Partner A on the log and partner B on the cindy. 

    Three rounds of rotations of cindy curls and log press. 30 seconds each with 15 seconds rest. 

    Two rounds of rotations of cindy OH press and log dead lift. 30 seconds each with 15 seconds rest. 

    Part 3: Moseyed back to flag area circled up for cindy hot potato. Dude calls out exercise for Pax and runs to end of lot, performs 10x toe taps, and comes back for next guy.  Exercises performed with the cindys ( I think this was it).

    A) bench press (everyone did OH press….I guess people don’t like getting wet). 

    B) Curls

    C) OH block hold

    D) Block Lunge

    E) Block sumo lifts

    Part 3: Carefully tuck the cindys away and 1 round of murican ring of fire. Each dude shows off their best moves while Pax planks. Knuckles, Hand release, diamond, claps, etc 

    Time. Enjoying this flex Friday thing. I think its good to get some “weight” training in and take a break from the running.

  • Three Amigos Part 2 (Ice Age)

    Three amigos once again braved the gloom today at Frozen Over Satan’s Hill. 

    Warmorama: SSH, Ukrainian soldiers, mountain climbers, merkins. Warm enough!

    What we did:

    Mosey up Satan’s hill. Jogged all around NM to stay warm with various exercises in between such as lunges, squats, merkins, American hammer, LBCs, Flutter kicks. 

    We even got in two triple checks at #1 Sultree/Prenoman and #2 at the top of Satan’s Hill.

    #1 – A guy runs to bottom of Sultree and back. B guy SSH and C guy squats. 3 rounds completed 

    #2 – A guy runs from top of Satan’s Hill to the fire hydrant, B guy does soldier taps, C guy box cutters. 2 rounds completed. 

    Good mumble chatter about how it felt colder today than at Dog Pile Saturday. 

    By the time we finished we were feeling warm, but ready to be done. About 2.5 miles plus the exercises. Not bad for 14 degrees.

  • yippee ki yay – Mudder Truckaah

    Five dudes got swole for another Flex Friday at Satan’s Hill. 

    5:27 a.m. I am greeted with a text from Oyster, “where are you”? Santa was on the way with presents of cold forged iron for all. 

    Warmorama: SSH, Ukrainian…ok ok Russian Soldiers, copper head squats, plank position alternate left and right arm up, plank jacks, mountain climbers. 

    What we did:

    Part 1: Mosey to the log pile: Setup 4 logs for round robin. One man runs to cul-de-sac and performs 20 merkins and 10 squats. Other guys did various log lifts. Presses, calf press, twist push and low squat log press. 

    Part 2: Moseyed back to flag area and setup five stations for a clockwise rotation of exercises. 

    A) Cinderblock Press

    B) Kettle Ball swing (20 lb)

    C) Dumbbell curls (20 lb)

    D) Cinderblock farmer carry across parking lot to station E.

    E) Goblet squat (60lb kettle ball). 

    E walks cindy back to station A. 

    Went through this rotation all the way through 2x. Timing of station rotation based on farmer carry from station D to E. 

    Part 3: Christmas movie trivia. Wrong answer equals 5x merkins. Line up at one end of parking lot and lunged down and back. Pax took turns with trivia. Good mumble chatter and laughter here. Wilson knows what’s up…Diehard is the best Christmas movie of all time. 

    Part 4: Oyster was sad about not getting a full mile of running in, tried to help out with a run to stop sign and back to flag. Quick conveyer belt around the center concrete landscaping (think hand walk in plank position around the rim)

    Part 5: YHC got a little goofy and called for a “circle of pain” with merkins. Pax planked up and rotated through 2 sets of holding plank while each dude knocked out 10 reps. 

    Time. Enjoying this flex Friday thing. Will have to think of more exercises and different rotations. Despite running less than 1 mile, our hearts were pumping.
