7 #HIM showed up at the Fly on an unusually nice, Summer Sunday morning for a Sweaty Bells workout. YHC has been thinking a lot about functional fitness lately. How can we bring more functional fitness to the PAX? Well, the Kettle Bells provide a unique opportunity. I’m thinking Farmer’s Carry…but first:
Circle up for Warm-Up
- Alternating Open Gates (Jingle Vader opened his own gates to Hell on this one!) IC X20
- Halos Around Head switching right to left till Q yells halt
- Halos Around Body switching right to left till Q yells halt
- Imperial Walkers IC X20
- Self-Love IC X20
Here it is. First Round of Farmer’s Carry up and over the Hill for 3 minutes alternating holding kettle bell in right and left hands
Next Mosey to First Cone on soccer field for Four Corners
- Bear Crawl to Second Cone moving your Kettle
Bell in Right Hand
- At Second Cone, Squat to Right Hand Press X10 IC then Squat to Left Hand Press X10 IC
- Crab Crawl to Third Cone moving your Kettle Bell in Right Hand
- At Third Cone, Sumo Squat to upright row X20 IC
- Bear Crawl to Fourth Cone moving your Kettle Bell in Left Hand
- At Fourth Cone, Alternate Reverse Lunges with Opposite Shoulder Reaches X10 each leg IC
- Crab Crawl to First Cone moving your Kettle Bell in Left Hand
- At First Cone, Alternating Front Lunges with OH Press. X10 Each leg IC
Back to Hill for second round of Farmer’s Carry up and over the Hill for 3 minutes alternating holding kettle bell in right and left hands
Next, circle up at soccer field for:
- Curl to Press to Tricep Extension IC X20

Back to Hill for third round of Farmer’s Carry up and over the Hill for 3 minutes alternating holding kettle bell in right and left hands
Time’s up and we are at the top of the mole hill. Let’s circle up here for CoT. Count-off, Name-o-rama, Announcements, Intentions, and Prayer.
I think the PAX enjoyed the Farmer’s Carry. Maybe next time they have to carry something heavy it will be a little easier!
Thanks for letting me lead!
