Fresh off a compelling night of basketball, 6 pax took on the “Farmer Carry Mile” and 2 pax got lost on a 2 hour backpack walk.
19 pax ( total after our 2 colleagues had satiated their wanderlust) got to work.
Standard warmup – performed to “All I Do is Win” (just sayin)
Thunderstruck – merkin every time you hear the word “Thunder” with high plank in between (merkin count 34)
EMOM (every minute on the minute) Stairway to Burpee Hell – 30 minutes
Round 1: 60 seconds to do 1 burpee
Round 2: 60 seconds to do 2 burpees
Round 3: 60 seconds to do 3 burpees
you get the pattern – easy for the first 7-10 minutes with a lot of mumblechatter… then it gets real. Once you can no longer complete the burpees in your 60 seconds, switch to merkins.
Once you can no longer complete the merkins in your 60 seconds, switch to air squats.
Once you can no longer complete the air squats in your 60 seconds, switch to LBCs
Old School sit-ups – 2 minutes, strict form with partner holding your feet, switch and repeato – goal 55
Happy (by Pharrell) – merkin every time you hear the word “Happy/Happiness” with high plank in between (merkin count 75)

– Today was grueling. 1+ mile of carrying 30-45lbs makes your forearms and traps beg for relief. Follow that up with the Stairway to Burpee Hell, and we all were ready for coffeeteria. Tclaps to Sweats, Food Lion, and Peach who destroyed the workout… seriously, they went past round 20 with the burpees (YHC had blurred vision at that point), and were still doing merkins at the 30 minute stop.
– Welcome to Coal Ash and his son Chernobyl – strong showing on your first day
- Get online and sign-up to be a part of The Bull (here) – it helps us get prepared – you should buy a shirt here (its a mystery but believe me, its awesome). You have until 4/2 to buy one. Our brothers from Carpex and Raleigh are coming so let”s show them what we”re about
- Churham is making a transition to using “Slack” for day to day communication regarding workouts, mumblechatter, and obviously anti-Duke rhetoric.. please reach out to me, Sweats, Coco, Floyd, Adolphus, DOI, Riggs, etc… for help getting it set up
