A BIG weekend was upon the PAX of the The Wall and YHC. For the first time ever, the home town team, The Tar Heels, would face the rival from the other side of Churham, The Blue Devils, in the Final Four. To say YHC was nervous and a bit obsessed with this game and all of the hype would be an understatement. After 4 straight days of consuming news coverage and memes about the rivalry, YHC couldn’t help but plan a workout around it. Today, we would celebrate the greatest basketball program in NCAA history (with groans from the PAX who happen to cheer for other schools).

At least 3 PAX did Zero to Murph with Homegrown Berry making an appearance to lead it. When the clock struck 0530, 12 PAX stood in the gloom ready for 45 minutes of a Tar Heel themed workout.

Warm Up:

• Good Mornings x 8 IC  – The Tar Heels were lower than usual 8th seed this year due to a slow start and middle of the season
• Slow Squats x 21 IC – The Tar Heels have been to a NCAA record 21 Final Fours
• SSH x 32 IC – Winners of 32 regular ACC championships
• Mountain Climbers x 28 IC – Have won 28 games this season
• Burpees x 6 OYO – Have had 6 national players of the year

Thang 1: 130 NCAA tournament wins – most ever (mosey to the hill)

We would perform 130 reps through 13s. Start at the bottom of the hill with 2 Brady Maneks. Run to the top for 11 merkins. Repeat and decrease Merkins while increasing Brady Maneks by 1 until they are flipped.

Thang 2: 29 Armando Bacot double-doubles (bars)

Half the PAX go to the bar for hang with knee raises. The other half for Carolina Dry Docks.

• Set 1: 15 x Carolina Dry Docks
• Set 2: 14 x Carolina Dry Docks

Thang 3: 6 NCAA and 18 ACC tournament titles (tennis courts)

Start on the baseline. 6 Burpees plus shuttle run with 3 stops, 5 Burpees plus shuttle run, 4 burps etc.

• 6 Burpees – 6 NCAA championships
• 3 x shuttle runs – 18 ACC tournament titles

Mary:
6 x ring of fire

COT – It’s amazing to see the leadership of both coaches, Coach K and Hubert. YHC read one particular quote from Hubert that really showed amazing leadership after losing a tough game to Pitt.

“You can sit here and whine and complain and point fingers and make excuses and continue to be down on yourself,” Davis said, “or you can show up the next day ready to fight and compete and get after it. That’s what this team and this program will do.”
