6 Svelt SOJ Regulars, who for one reason or another couldn’t make the drive out to Derby, joined YHC in the gloom to get swole. I was not surprised to see the Q sheet open with all of the excitement around the Derby, but after talking to the M last night, our schedules just didn’t jive to get my Aaron Judge on. I hope a few of you were able to hit some balls over 180ft. With the majority of our posts being heavy cardio, YHC decided to do something a little different…a SLOW burn focused on form and simple/concentrated…

Lots of stuff The Thang, triple check, swings, upright rows and a runner. Round two. Indigenous peoples walk hallelujah style. There were some unclear instructions given by YHC but course corrected halfway through. Another triple check with step ups, curls and pull ups. Round three, kettle bell squat thrusts with a jog and high knee burpies. Quick ring of fire, announcements, prayers and numberama. ? for wildcat.

11 warriors gathered in the early morning to test their might. Is that an FNG? Nah. Welcome back Cookie!

It looks like Wildcat did a number on a lot of guys yesterday(excellent) so we had a strong group of 6 come out to Old Hundred for the Tuesday Kettlebell feast. I make sure to bring the tunes to keep us going. After a warm up lap run, back to the flag for a warm-up(SSH, Helicopters, Don Quixote, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Cheery Pickers, Merkins and LBCs). Once completed….time to get to work Descending ladder was first up…the main part of today’s workout. We start at 10, work our way down to 1. The exercises: presses per side, rows, figure…
13 men joined YHC and his janky kettlebell for another round of strength training at the Old Hundred. This KB is starting to build a reputation of its own. Currently thought to play music, be used as a street cone, and to bring hunting in a tree stand. Also known to be readily available on QVC on BOGO. Whatever the purpose, it holds weight just fine and YHC is fine with his thrifty ways and it’s multi-uses. Mumblechatter around this started strong…until the circuits began. According to the random man walking his dog, this is what went down. COP: SSH,…
