6 men left the warm fart sack this morning to freeze their bells off, and it went something like this…

A Disclaimer was given as I struggled with my glove and phone, then we moseyed around the church and circled up for Warmorama:
SSH x 20 *Fun times were had by all as @Luxury did his SSH’s 20+ feet away from the circle, I SSH’ed in a circle around my phone, and @Dutch crossed the circle and approached Luxury while doing his SSH’s. Bunch of side straddle goofballs…
IST x 15
Windmill x 15
Slow + Hold Merkins x 6 or 7 I lost count
Low Slow + Hold Squats x 5
Michael Phelps
Arm Circles

Mosey back to the bells for the KB Warmup:

Figure 8 x 8 each direction
Halo x 8 each direction
KB Side Lunge 5 each side
Windmill x 5 each side

Unfortunately I forgot to turn my watch around before this point, and my bell was resting on my running watch. Seems I made a small crack in the corner of the protective cover screen/glass I had on it. That’s why you get multiple in a pack… As I turned my watch around on my wrist, everyone else did some curls.

Line up, facing new lot. KB Bearcrawl to next spaces. Getting there moments after Guinness and before the rest of the PAX, I had to run back for my 35lb bell.
KB Lunge Walk to the next parking spaces. I rushed mine so I could run back and grab my 35lb bell again.
Carry from there to the parking space at the end of the big island between the old and new parking lots.

The Thang:

Line up at end parking space.
-Squat Thrusters x 5
-Curls x 5
-Tricep Extensions x 5
KB Bear crawl 2 spaces forward **A few men decided they didn’t want to bear crawl at this point and lunge walked instead… Too bad for them due to the next set….
Repeato until you reach the middle island.

— Brief Mosey around big island —

Head back towards the starting line with next set:
-Obliques x 10 each side
-Clean and press x 5 each side
-KB Merkin x 5 each side
KB Lunge Walk 2 spaces forward
Repeato until you reach the middle island.

Stupidly, YHC forgot to set the exercise up so that we did this from the starting point, where the 35lb bell was kept… and ended up doing half of the sets with the 45lb bell. Ugh.

— Another brief Mosey around big island —

Final set, gather in a circle under the parking light for:
High Pull x 10
Dutch Cucumbers x 5 each side
Repeato x 2

Mary:
Chest Press x 10
Russian Twist x 10
Skull Crusher x 10
Derby Double Tap to Homer to Marge x 10 OYO
Lat Pullover x 10
RBC x 15
Pretzel Stick x 10 each side
Crunchy Frog x 13

Moleskin:
Good workout men. I guess I was in a similar mind set when I made this beat down as I was for the one on Monday. Initial plan was just a ton of reps, but I instead decided to give a more visual goal rather than just say “Let’s do 50+ of _____!!”

Looking forward to seeing @Luxury go up in weight and become far stronger! Same to you Guiness… I still wonder when I’ll see those far bigger arms than mine tackling a more menacing bell!

Way to overachieve @Dutch, doing exercises wrong / in different forms for the sake of more weight. I like your moxie.

Also announcement from @Dunphy:
“March 5th Stonebridge is having a deal where three adults from different age groups will be grouped with a kid (I believe a middle school age kid) to commit praying for them each day for the next year. I have been approached to ask as many volunteers to get the chairs (I think it is about 400) moved to the sides of the sanctuary after the second service to make room for the event and then back after the event. The event is supposed to last about an hour and a half and the chairs will need to be moved quickly for a smooth transition. They are offering lunch to the helpers as well. There are a couple of guys committed to help but we probably need at least 15 to get the job done in the time they need it done. If you can help, “HC stonebridge” @dunphy and I will keep you updated on the info. Thanks”
