It’s a Copperhead!!
All All MECA BackblastsJanuary 4th, 2017
10 of Tradition’s finest gathered at Stonebridge this morning for an Iron Fist beatdown. While the workout was intense (YHC’s humble opinion) the mumble chatter was also in full swing.
The Major offered his observations on a variety of topics to include YHc’s Q request email (too long, what was the point, he replied to Herman Melville), where are the pull-up bars, what’s the excuse for delay, who is in charge, etc.etc.).
The beatdown went something like his;
Mosey around the church to the lower parking lot.
Warm-ups to include SSH’s, IST’s, Cotton pickers, Merkins, plank jacks, low slow squats.
Then TIGHT arm circles, then UGE arm circles and then backwards. Interruption from Major – backwards is not a word – you go in REVERSE. Ok. REVERSE arm circles. Then Michael Phelps.
Go get cinder blocks. 9 stations were set up. Shoulder presses, Lunges, Curls, Squat and press, lawn mower pulls, Sumo squats, tricep extensions, chest presses, lat pullovers, goblet squats. The 10the person runs to the side portico and back. when he returns all rotate one station to the right.
After round 1 – 10 cinder block burpees and run to road and back.
repeato – round 2 and then 10 cinder block burpees.
Trade in cinder blocks for red bricks.
Sets of 10 with red bricks. front raises, man makers, side raises, man makers. feel the burn.
During this time a fast running Pax who shall remain nameless – retreated from his red bricks declaring – it’sa copperhead! Major quickly admonished him to cntinue wit the exercise at hand. @dutch went to inverstigate and determined the snake was in fact a worm. No problem. Beatdown continues

Whoa! I go running and look at all the men that show up to get strong. The return of @Durden who has been at AOs all over, Pongo’s back out, Shawshank ventured out for the warmer weather. Sounds like a good workout.
I drove over to the Valley today for the Tradition Cruise. Went extra early to do a pre run before… regular running? On time running? And as I went past Tradition I saw @Major Pain running his starting 2 miles as always. #Respect
Hopefully I will see most of you men tomorrow and RED Friday.
A copperhead snake in the middle of winter would’ve been a real find indeed. Glad I was able to be of some assistance in deworming the brick. Major in regards to your free agency threats – where else are you going to find this kind of humor? And where else are you going to get guys to listen to all your shenanigans? Tradition is the place to be.
Brown lizzards with long tails look a lot like copperheads when you cant see their legs haha. Good workout today, and always appreciate the motivation from Major Pain
Killer Beatdown, Maximus! Great seeing all you pax posting today. By the way, in the gloom a big worm or geiko could be mistaken for a small snake, it could happen?
