YHC has not posted at HoP for some time, but it's where the magic began. HoP was the site where I posted for the first time, under the leadership of Tuco. It was good to be back and to feel the punishing pain of the steel again.

Warmuprama
SSH / Windmill / WMH / LBAC + reverse / Good Mornings + Knope clap / Slow merkin / slow squat / fellowship run around the building

The THANG
We grabbed steel and performed a jacob's ladder up and down the hill of the parking lot (carrying the steel): 25 overhead presses at the top, 5 steel-squats at the bottom, progressing by units of 5 until the count was reversed.

Then, we made a lap around the building sans steel, interrupted by balls to the wall and people's chair midway around.

Finally, we partnered up and did a reverse dora to the tune of three trips of lunges. In each pair, one person lunge-walked w/ steel to the next island and ran back down for the tag/flapjack. Non-lunging partners worked through these exercises: (1) one-legged, on the curb, steel on the waist homers-to-marge , (2) urkins, (3) steel-in-the-air flutterkicks.

Finally, we did 25 rows in cadence.
