Good morning…..70 and sunny(more like 25 and I thought I saw a penguin from the corner of my eye). A day like today, it allows me to try thingsv plus some gear I haven’t brought out in a while was used. It was just 2 of us((Broadway and myself). After a quick warmup(SSHs, Don Quixotes, Arm Circles, Imperial Walkers) time to get it going.
The first notes from Cult of Personality hit, we were off and running. First part was a 5 exercise station, 3 times thru: 50 2-count battle ropes, 10/side clean and press with a 16kg/35 pound kettlebell, tire slams(10), 10 WW2 with a press(25 pound sandbag) at the top, and jump ropes(in brought 2, 50 with the regular and if you felt up for the challenge 25 with a 5 pound rope). After that down to the football field
What was up next: how about sandbag drags with bear crawls(WTF). A 50 pound sandbag drag, reach back, grab a handle and pull thru. As it moves up, bear crawl to where the bag stopped switch hands. This morning one corner of the end zone to the other side, then turn back around. As the person is doing the drags, the other is running down to the end zone at the other end, come back pick up where they left off at. You have to remember, sand moves inside this requires everything from head to toe to work together so a challenge no doubt
As time was getting closer, one final mini triple check: run up and down the hill with the sandbag on your shoulders, the other person does 10 incline Merkins, 15 tricep dips. We went back to the street, closed it out, loaded gear into my vehicle and called it a day
This will be done again, hopefully with a few more people cause I could literally use 2( I’m have 4 sandbags ranging from 25 to over 100 pounds), what I can come up with will be fun plus the battle ropes fact in my head just now something for next time. I lead again Saturday at Rock and Roll, be ready.
