You Will Eat My Rear Rockets

15 warriors entered the ring armed with nothing but a chair and reckless abandon. Local news outlets reports frost on the ground, but it was 70 and sunny at WDog. According to Mean Gene it went a little something like this.

Mosey to stage.

COP: SSH X 20, IW X 20, FC X 20, WWII X 20, Macho Man Merkins X 10 (ooooo yeah), Arm Circles X 1

Pickup cinder block coupons and mosey to circle

7 MINUTE ABS: Partner up. One partner runs to the Carillon Seal with coupon and completes 3 burpees. The other partner is waiting and dreaming for their arrival. To pass the time they are in elbow plank position with a cinder block on their back. Three rounds!

PADDY CAKE: Switch partners. Complete three rounds of the following:

• 20 American Hammers with coupon
• Mosey to opposite grass circle
• 10 Boo Ya Decline Merkins, using the coupon to keep feet elevated

Mosey to return coupons and mosey to the stage at the amphitheater

ELEVATION GERMINATION: Three rounds of exercises. All starting at one end of the stage, working across to the other side and up the hill to the road.

• Round #1 – Polar Bear
• Round #2 – Crawl Bear
• Round #3 – Polar bear across stage, at the base of the hill switch to Polar Crawl Bear. Ouch.

Mosey back to flag.

As DTH says, it looked good on paper. Expect the uphill crawl bears to make another appearance very soon.

BONUS BOOK RECOMMENDATION: Per previous posts, YHC had a book that found me at the right time. I couldn’t recommend Second Mountain by David Brooks enough. If you are just crazy enough to show up to these workouts, read these posts and do the hard work of growing yourself, then it’s for you. YHC found this passage relevant in my current mental state:

“It’s one of the inescapable truisms of life: You have to lose yourself to find yourself, give yourself away to get everything back.”

Make it a great one fellas. Only those who post know. Dig a little deeper and get it all out.

Your pal,
