The Academy – April Edition

All All MECA Backblasts

April 18th, 2017 By Man Down

A convergence of 12 challengers from Tradition and The Precinct took on The Academy monthly AMRAP on a perfect spring morning! This WIB (Workout In a Bag) is a FULL body, you-vs-you, strength and cardio endeavor which gives Pax a tour of our AO while working close with their brothers. Recovering from a Spartan-induced shoulder injury our 13th Pax member, Brutus, bypassed the course and ran 4 miles instead (thanks for the help with setup!).

0530 – We launched from Intake for The Farmlands run, then back up again and to enter The Cell Block for The AMRAP Gauntlet (signs posted at each station)…

  1. 10 Burpees at the Gate, run forward…
  2. 20 Cinder Block Curls, run diagonal…
  3. 10 Tire Flips, run forward…
  4. 20 Cinder Block Triceps Extensions, run to the Gun Range…
  5. 10 Pull-ups, run to the Great Wall…
  6. 10 Muscle-ups, over the wall on last rep and down to sidewalk…
  7. Bear Crawls from pole-to-pole, back around outside of fence to the Cell Block Gate.

Once you make it back to the Gate, that’s ONE round. Rinse and Repeat #1-7 AMRAP until time called at 0605.

Blocks and tires back, then log your laps – x.1, x.2, x.3, x.4, x.5, x.6, x.7 – where “x” denotes the number of full rounds and then you add the last station completed (#1-7). Monthly totals are kept below as a benchmark. Set a goal to beat your record next month!

  1. Look at @Mandown jumping up through the numbers.

    I appreciate in the last 5 minutes as I felt ready to die, that Drowning Pool song came on with the lyrics that start saying: something’s got to give, something’s got to give……. Very appropriate lyrics at the time!

    1. Getting there. One day soon I hope to make it to King Louie and Brutus status.
