Bulging Biceps
All All MECA BackblastsFebruary 15th, 2017
Back when YHC was a youth there was a tv show YHC watched named “Popeye the Sailor”. Popeye was a pushover bullied by many until he ate spinach and then voila after eating spinach he grew large biceps and was able to fight evil with his spinach grown biceps and strength. At least that is what YHC recalls. When YHC eats Spinach however YHC’s biceps are not affected. Hence, later in life YHC seeks alternatives. Therefore today, understanding it would not rain at 5:30 (never does!) YHC created a biceps bulging beatdown.
It went something like this.
Mosey around church and then 15 ssh’s, ists, windmills, cotton pickers, low slowsquats, plank jacks, merkins.
Station 1 – 1 partner using cinder block does 10 derby doubletaps, 15 lats pullovers, 15 tricep extensions, 209 chest presses and 8 cinder block burpees. Partner 2 using kettlebells does curls AMREPS (full, half-up and half down) until partner1 finishes. Then they swap. After completion run to shovel flag and ionto next station.
Station 2 – Partner 1 does 15 shoulder presses, 15 sumo squats, 15 rows each arm, 15 merkins and 8 cinder block burpees while partner 2 does curls – amrep (full, high, low). After completion t=run to shovel flag and onto next station.
Mary: lbc’s,pretzel stick, low flutters, merkins, russian twists and a few others.

Well done mighty Maximus. Preparation with chalk , kbs and instruction was almost BBC esque. All we needed was the heavy metal music!
Next time I’m sure. #raisingthebar
AYE on the metal! Nothing like some heavy music for lifting heavy things, repeatedly. Looks like a serious workout with or without the music.
Thanks for the comments @chum and@dutch – just seeing them now. Yes – I have now learned music is acceptable at F3 beatdowns so next time there will be heavy metal music to go along with the heavy lifting!
