Curls and Tires
All All MECA BackblastsJanuary 12th, 2016
10, wait, 11 men braved the cold temps for a weinkeless workout this morning at Tradition. Skyline pulled in at the last second. Was trying to pull a farm. After a quick disclaimer, we were off.
Warm-up
– Mosey around church
– SSH x 12
– IST x 12
– Cotton Pickers x 12
The Thang
– Partnered up, each pair got a tire and a cinder block
– One partner did tire flips while the other partner did 10 curls
– Traveled around the two islands in the lower parking lot
After the first trip around the two islands YHC called an audible so we could do some zigzags in the parking lot
– Back to the tires and cinder blocks for one more trip around the two islands
– Put tires back and everyone grabbed their own cinder block
Another audible!!
– Suicides to each parking spot line. It was at this point that I heard my first BS from Rib Shack.
– Plank up when your done with the suicides.
– Back to the cinder blocks for 10 curls
– Walk to different spot of parking lot for 10 tricep extensions
– Walk to another spot for 10 shoulder presses
It was at this point that I noticed Major Pain holding his cinder block over his head when we walked from one spot to the next. What a great idea!! Each time we walked to another location we put the cinder blocks over our heads.
– 10 more curls
– walk to random spot for 10 more tricep extensions
– walk to another spot for 10 shoulder presses
It was at this point that I heard the second BS out of Rib Shack. That pushed me to do even more. Thanks brother.
– Another random spot for 10 curls
– Started to head back and realized we had more time, so closer to cars for 10 tricep extensions.
I’m pretty sure I heard Gentle Grizzly call me a jerk at this point when I decided we needed to keep walking. (*NOTE: I incorrectly thought this was Rib Shack My bad brother.) Oh well. Not a third BS call.
– Started to head back and Major Pain said “wait, what about shoulder presses?” Can’t let my brother down, so off to another random spot for 10 more shoulder presses.
– Finally back to put up the cinder blocks…but wait, 20 more curls just for fun.
– Put back the cinder blocks and ran to cars for some Mary.
Mary
– LBCs x 10
– Pretzel Crunch x 10
– Homer to Marge with 10 count between each rep (at this point I screamed out that it should hurt…Rib shack said it did…was doing my job)
– Reverse crunch (courtesy of Rib Shack)
– Mason Twist (courtesy of Major Pain)
Moleskin
– Nice job this morning gents. I hope you didn’t mind that I made this one up as we went. I knew I wanted to use the tires and the cinder blocks. I didn’t realize that the tires had so much water in them. Made for a little more of a challenge.
– Two BS calls from Rib Shack this morning. I was hoping for a third, but it didn’t happen. Oh well.
– Thanks for partnering up ONJ and Gentle Grizzly.
– Welcome back #1. Good to have you back out there in the gloom. I hope this was a good beatdown for you.

Nice work by everyone this morning. Sound off below.
#RESPECT’S in da HOUSE!!
Really? So anytime someone is late, my name gets mentioned?!
Well, that is your thing.
Jerk – it was me
Thanks for clarifying. I was really starting to sound like a whiny arse!
You know, that actually makes more sense. I’ll make the necessary changes.
@Jelly- thanks for leading. It was good one despite aforementioned BS calls.
@Guinness- was good partnering with you sir!
@#1- welcome (back) out, it was good to have you!
@Jelly great lead this morning! Enjoyed it! @#1 nice partnering up with you. Welcome back!
-Good job this morning Jelly!
-Always great to work with you Maximus, way to push for GAINS!!
Great lead in the cold@forgottenjelly! Arms ached from all the curls and I’m in the curls challenge. Definitely motivated. Good to see you back @#1. Thanks for partnering @gazebo. Solid push!
Tough beatdown, @ForgottenJelly, especially in that cold. Although, it was okay after a while when my hands became totally numb – couldn’t feel a thing. Great to see you back, #1. And you too, Neon. I was wondering whether @Ribshack and I had a lighter tire or whether we were kickin some butt with the tire flippin’? Great partnering @Ribshavk. See you in the gloom or for the cruise in the Valley.
oooh hooh. @guiness you are humble man and now it is showing more… as you advertise your speed. Not only were you the fastest in the so called suicides I didn’t realize you and Ribshack were the fastest tire flippers too! Quite a morning for a respect man.
Great morning! My fingers just now thawed out. Time for some warmer gloves. Thanks for the recommendation @Jelly!
