There were no FNGs at The Gipper this morning. If there had been, YHC would have named the first one Smuckers. Because his arms and legs and the rest of his body for that matter would have felt like jelly. F3 Greenwood must have it in for the rest of us. Last week’s IronPAXChallenge workout was tough, but our South Carolina brothers turned the volume up to 11 this week. What a workout.
Knowing that we’d be pressed for time and anticipating the severity of the challenge before us, YHC kept the pre-game festivities to a minimum. After a few SSHs, Seal Jacks, Copperhead Squats and Arm Circles, the PAX walked to their 26.6 lb cinder blocks like prisoners to the gallows. Brief instructions and it was game time: 8 minutes of Thrusters, Swings, Manmakers, and Curls…50 yard run after every 25 reps…AMRAP for each exercise…2 minutes of rest between exercises.
So simple yet so brutal.
Countorama, nameorama and a prayer. Then YHC gave the guys the rest of the day off from work. Hey, they earned it.
Thanks for letting me lead guys. We need to come up with a challenge involving alligators and send it in the direction of the Carolinas.
