Bear Crawl Ring of Fire (and other terrible things)
All All MECA BackblastsNovember 20th, 2015
12 men got out of the fartsack and posted at the beautiful Skywalker AO. With temps in the low 40s and no rain, we set off into the gloom.
Mosey to upper lot and circle up:
- SSH
- Low Country Crab
- Windmill
- Cotton Picker
At this point, YHC joins the circle for some Bear Crawl Ring of Fire:
- Bear crawl counter clockwise until Q calls Halt. Upon stopping, first pax performs exercise while other plank, then next pax in like completes exercise while others plan. Repeato until all pax have completed exercise.
- 1st halt: 10 Merkins
- 2nd halt: 10 Diamond Merkins
- 3rd halt: 10 Wide Merkins
- (Audible called after first round to have 2 pax at a time perform merkins to speed things up, shoulders are getting smoked!)
Mosey to our new obstacle that appeared in the parking lot (2 storage pods) for a quick peoples chair.
(Brief intermission while Q turns the lights off in his truck)
Mosey down to the driving range
- Run to far cart parking spot, 1 Burpee
- Run back up to street, 10 LBC
- Run to 2nd cart parking spot, 2 Burpees
- Run back up to street, 10 LBC
- Continue this pattern until you hit all 7 parking spots
Mosey back up to the parking lot and partner up for a Grinder Grinder
- 100 Merkins
- 200 Air Squats
- 300 LBC
Back down to lower lot for Mary
- Pretzel Crunch
- Side Crunch
- Metronome
- Dying Cocroach
- Partner Throw Downs, 2 sets
- RECOVER

- YHC contemplated calling for muscle ups on top of the storage pods but ultimately decided to keep pax safety in mind and aborted.
- The call of the fartsack for me this morning was STRONG but, as always, I’m glad I posted.
- I have been wanting to use the driving range path for a while and figured since I didn’t have anything else planned, today would be a great time to try it out.
- In an attempt to keep things new and exciting for us, I started my Cyber Monday shopping early and made some purchases from the F3 Exercise Lexicon. The BCRoF turned out to be more challenging than it sounded on paper.
- See you guys Monday!

Privileged and honored to lead this morning men!
Sounds like bear crawl was this weeks theme for meca. I bet schnitzel enjoyed the double up from Tuesday.!
I love the cool crisp mornings! But I am starting to crave honey!
Just as long as you can fight the urge to hibernate!!
Nice use of the range there @Grinder! Was wondering when that would be conquered.
Who’s up for MCP tomorrow?
