7 strong arrived at City Park on a cool early Fall morning to once again tackle Wisner Mountain. The plan for the day was a Dirty Double, running a Dirty MacDeuce over Wisner Mountain, with some Dirty Manmakers in-between. The usual disclaimer and off we go.
Warm up COP: SSH x 20 IC, IW x 20 IC, Grass Grabbers x 10 IC, Windmills x 10 IC, Arm Circles 10 forwards and 10 backwards IC.
On the mosey to the mountain we discussed the origins of the Dirty MacDeuce. Captain Seamus MacDeuce was an esteemed war hero loved by his crew. He started working as a deck hand at the age of 12, and commissioned his first ship before the age of 20. He captained 12 ships over the course of his long and storied career. His men loved him for his honor, his bravery, and his commitment to his crew. He was equally well-known for his feats of strength and his love of Rum. His physical strength was unparalleled, and including arm wrestling and the ability to overhead press full barrels of Rum. He was both loved and feared as a man of the sea, and his strength of character serves a a beacon for the men of F3.
The Thang: Dirty MacDeuce over the Mountain: 12 exercises, 4 sets of 3 (shoulder, legs, core), 12 reps IC, while running back and forth over the Wisner bridge.
Set 1: Hand release merkins, Imperial squat walkers, American Hammer
Set 2: Merkins, Monkey humpers, Crunchy frogs
Dirty Interlude: Murder Bunnies under the mountain. The plan was Murder Bunnies on the pavement for 30 yards, 10 Dirty Manmakers, and Murder Bunnies back. Dirty Manmakers are a Manmaker with 3 hand-release merkins at the bottom, and 3 shoulder presses at the top. Catfish would love them. On the first 30 yards, the Murder Bunnies attacked Saban. Saban’s block crumpled on the pavement under his brute strength. Saban left skin and blood on the mountain this day, but with bloody knuckles he persevered to finish the workout. Seamus MacDeuce would be proud, Saban. After the Murder Bunny bit Saban, we modified to rifle carry with the blocks. I think this may be way the IPC performed Murder Bunnies on grass, not pavement. But we did get the better off them during the IPC. Even Score. Murder Bunnies: 1, NOLA Pax: 1.
Set 3: Leg cross-over merkins, Alternating lunges, LBT’s
Set 4: Wide merkins, Squats, Flutter kicks
We moseyed back to the flag for the COT with count-off, name-o-rama, announcements, intentions, and a prayer. Lesson learned: no murder bunnies on pavement. Thanks for letting me lead. Sorry about your knuckles, Saban.
