While Turbo and Tank looked fully rested and recovered from their muddy weekend, YHC was a little uneasy to return after a nearly two week hiatus. But four PAX showed and helped to push me into what turned out to be a pretty decent beatdown.
Started off with Seal Jacks (20x), Imperial Squat Walkers (15x), Toe Touches (15x), and Windmills (20x), all IC. (I should say we attempted cadence, because the ISW’s really showed just how foggy we all are at 6am.)
Moseyed over to the back of the Justice Center for the Thang:
Grab a bench for 10x Bulgarian Split Squats (each leg), followed by 10x Step Ups, IC.
Set of 40’s – 30 Merkins / 10 Freak Nasties, 20 Merks / 20 Freaks, 10 Merks / 30 Freaks. This one brought out the Bulldog in Tank!
Indian Run up to the third floor of the parking garage for some sprints – 75 yards then 75 MC’s, back to the start. 50 yards, 50 LBCs and back. 10 yards, 10 burpees.
Mosey downstairs and to the front of the Justice Center for a run up the center’s stairs and back, 20x Parker Peters IC, back up and down, 20x Peter Parkers IC.
Back to the shovel flag for a new one: the Hands of Time. Circle up heads in, feet up at 90 deg., rotate clockwise with each PAX dipping feet and counting off in turn until reaching 60. Then feet down to 10 deg., rotate again kicking feet up and counting off until hitting 60. Surprised at my own inability to get my legs in the 90 degrees position to even start the exercise, it’ll definitely be a routine that YHC will have to revisit.
Then a Circle Burp, each one of us calling drop twice, and out with a quick Mary: Jane Fondas and quick pulses, each leg, 20x IC.
Countdown, Tank prayed us out, Turbo up next Weds. T-claps to Moby who’s become a regular at trailhead. And as always, thanks for letting me lead.
Good stuff this morning, Steve. Takes a special kind of beatdown to get Tanked Up growling like a bulldog.
