5 High Impact Men gathered at the View for a Heavy beat down led by none other than YHC.
BayWatch , Hokie, Mahatma and YHC donned our rucks and one 60 lb sandbag known affectionately as Sweetness, disclaimers were given, then up the levee we went.
Warmup
SSH IC x 31
Grass Grabbers IC x 10
Abe Vigodas IC x 10
Arm circles IC x 15
There was confusion as the warmup left my fellow Pax longing for more? No Bat Wings? No Burpees? YHC informed these HIM’s that something far better awaits across the levee.
Once over the levee the excitement could barely be contained. A single yet heavy 10 foot railroad tie was just resting there, begging to be carried. YHC instructed two Pax to start carrying our special friend, with the rotation as follows:
Railroad tie
Railroad tie
Rest (Carry only ruck sack)
60 lb sandbag (Sweetness)
Rinse and Repeat…….
Once we made it to the staging area, we put our heavy friend away, which was where Tubbs found us.
It was time for a little catch me if you can. One Pax takes off with Sweetness while other Pax complete an exercise, then catch the sandbag. Rinse and Repeat.

– YHC informed Pax to keep track of airplanes during the beat down. Only one passed, so we started our 10 Burpees. Then, as if on cue, a second airplane passed overhead allowing 20 burpees to be enjoyed by all.
– It was great to meet up with Tubbs. We hadn’t seen him in awhile, and he didn’t hesitate to jump in and take the sandbag. He really seemed to enjoy the burpees. He’ll be back, I just know it.
– Sure, it sucked to carry the railroad tie. Totally worth it! It will return, probably with friends.
Thanks for joining me to try some new things. I love you guys!
