  • 54

    4 guys came out this morning for a bday beatdown

    COP –54 SSH, crabcakes, heel reaches, flutterkicks, crunchy frogs, mountain climbers, AST’s

    KB slide — line up next to each other in plank position
    first person does 10 renegade rows with kettlebell with LH, slide over and do the same with RH
    then run to back of line
    next person goes until all have gone,
    next time 8, then 6,4,2

    KB circle
    every other person has a KB
    timer is the heavy KB
    10 AM ham, rotate around the circle
    rest of the group does A, ham until the timer calls the rotation


    same concept with
    10 kb squats

    and again with flutter kick presses

    repeat the whole sequence

  • Two Warriors on a 61 Degree Low Humidity Morning

    Two guys posted on a beautiful Friday morning. In my mind, it was the nicest of the year so far.

    Started off with a lap around the parking lot followed by some warmup exercises and stretching.

    Started off with 4 corners of the parking lot (10-20-30-20-10) LBC’s, Monkey Humpers, Merkins and Calf Raises.

    11’s with Bear or Crab Walks between – Heals to Heaven and WWII Situps

    We teamed up for 100 – 200 – 300 of Calf Raises, Helix Squats, LBC’s. One member ran a lap while the other exercised. We only got through calf raises before we were out of time.

    Numberama, Namarama a couple quick words and we were out. Lots of talk about everything in the world. If Bulkhead ever wants to run for office, I’d vote for him.

    Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for posting Bulkhead.
