The BackBlast:
Reaching the middle of the week – 6 PAX showed in the gloom at Copper Beach ready to get better.
Stranger in the darkness? We thought we had an FNG from a far away land showing up at the beach – but even better, it was our long lost brother Lockout emerging from a long stay in the woods.
WARM-UP:
SSH IC 25, LBAC all IC- 10 fwd, 10 reverse + seal claps 15 + overhead seal claps 15, Willie Mays Hayes x 10, and wrapped up with Paul Blarts IC x 10. (Speaking of the legendary crime fighter Paul Blart – his early civilian days as comedian Kevin James are worth seeing – even though the quality is poor on this video, it’s pretty solid)
Mosey through the sprinklers and around the track near the parking lot.
Landed in the middle of the large field to the north of the parking lot, for…
THE THANG:
Part One, The Big Bang. The Pax surrounding a cone in the middle of the field – facing outward started the first round by running 10 yards straight away from the cone in different directions to complete 10 burpees, then sprinted back to the cone and held a plank until all were complete. Continued with 20 yard run and 20 more burpees (Original plan was Merkins – but saving the PAX Merkins for IPC on Friday). Then 30 yards and 30 Flutter Kicks IC. Then 40 yards and 40 Bradley Coopers. Then 50 yards and 50 Squats. Wrapped with 60 SSH IC.
After a brief mosey, I shared with the PAX that my older brother lives in Aiken South Carolina. And speaking of…
Part two, Aiken Legs. 20 each of Squats, Box Jumps, Lunge Steps, and Split Jacks. Sensing the PAX wanted to over achieve we added on 20 Broad Jumps. Worth noting that Hollywood made it half way to Lehi and the Footloose AO with his mammoth broad jumps.
Wrap-up = MARY – Box Cutters and Flutter kicks wrapped the day.
COT and Announcements:
- Discussed TTR -with Kingpin already voting for EC at 5am.
- Showing up early for IPC on Friday.
- We are keeping Domo and SunnyDs job searches in our thoughts.
- Reminded PAX that Saturday evening 6-10pm is an open house for YHC’s 50th birthday. No gifts or burpees will be dispensed.
The rest of the day may get easier boys, but lets not let up. Max effort and our best leadership is needed. Let’s do it!
Humbly,
ThighMaster
