It was back to the farm with 3 veterans and a FNG this morning at the Covington Trailhead. Mardi Gras is over, and there are few better ways to get back to work than with farmer carries. So after a nice dynamic warmup down the platform alley with various stretches, hops, strides, and sprints, the PAX made their downpainment as follows:
Jack Webbs with a 1:2 ratio working our way up to 10 Merkins and 20 kneeling air presses.
Grabbed our coupons and headed to the brickyard for a set of 11s: squats on one side, back to front lunges on the other, connected by nice farmer’s walk carrying our coupons.
FNG checked out with what Chevy Chase would call a “thing” and the veterans soldiered on.
Back to the Trailhead for a 10 minute AMRAP: down the hill to the stage, hop or climb onto the stage, back around and then bear crawl up the hill, followed by a Merkin. Rinse and repeat but increasing the rep count on the Merkins with each trip. Tanked-Up put in a particularly strong performance, making sure he got all of his 16 Merkin reps in even after the buzzer sounded.
Count-o-rama, name-o-rama and Einstein prayed us out.
Tanked-Up is Q next Wednesday. Should be fun.
