It was as if the LIGO super collider had been activated and, through some rip in the space time continuum, produced three Q’s instead of the usual one for Tuesday’s beatdown. Either that or no one signed up to Q Granny and we did a Round Robin. Dimensional warping or no, though, the varied leadership produced a worthy beatdown. Here’s the gist:
Warmorama (Steve): cherry pickers, arm circles (forward and back), imperial walkers, SSHs, high knees. All x20 IC.
The Thang:
Part 1: (Steve) Over to the marsh for an AMRAP set of 5 pull-ups, 10 merkins, and 15 squats. With a very-probable Murph coming up for Memorial Day (mark your calendar, gents), it seemed a good idea to start getting some reps in. PAX did 50 pull-ups, 100 merkins, and 150 squats.
Part 2: (Zoolander) Back to Granny’s for some corridor action. Since many of us were denied the pleasure of finishing the Zoorich Classic and thus denied the broad jump burpee finale, Zoo decided we should get another chance and this time he doubled down on the pain. PAX would broad jump burpee to the first column, then bear crawl back to start, broad jump burpee to the second column, bear crawl back, and so on. After a few of these excruciating suicides, we partnered up for…
Part 3: (Zoolander, with a suggestion from Cowbell) Modified BLIMPS: Partner 1 begins with the burpees, while partner 2 runs the corridor, up and down the stairs and back to relieve P1. With time constraints, we nixed the cumulative count and simply each did one round of the following: burpees, lunges, imperial walkers, merkins, plank jacks, squats.
Mary: (Shooter) Shooter, fresh off a trip to Grand Isle which found him… on the opposite end of rested, continued the pain with a round of crunchy frogs, LBC’s, wife pleasers, and Freddie Mercs, all around 20x IC.
COT and Shooter prayed us out. Thanks to the PAX for posting and leading – it was brutal and, as always, somehow fun. 👊
