If the title makes it sound hard, that”s because it was. Seven pax came out on a perfect morning for a workout, and Moore didn”t let us down. Here”s what happened:
Extra Credit:
Three showed up for a 5k. Two made it all the way but one needed to divert and make a quick stop at his house before the main event started.
Main Event:
Warm-up

  • 21 SSH
  • 20 Goofballs
  • 10 Willie Mays Hayes
  • 10 Don Quixotes

The Thang
Partner up.

  1. Round 1
    1. Partner 1 – “Blockees” (i.e. burpee with cinder block) at the bottom of the hill until partner #2 returns from his jaunt.
    2. Partner 2 – Brick in each hand and run to top of hill. 10 merkins the first trip. 20 the second. 30… 40… 30… 20… 10 for a total of 160 merkins
    3. Finished off with 5 merkins for all to get 165 or the day for anyone doing the March Merkin Madness.
  2. Round 2
    1. Partner 1 – Stay at bottom of the hill and shadow box with bricks ducking back and forth under a rope.
    2. Partner 2 – Run with cinder block to top of hill… 5 squats the first trip. 10 the second. 15 the last.

Time for some legs. 10 sets of 20 air squats. 1 set every 30 seconds for 5 minutes. Sounds easy. Feels brutal…
