“You know it sucks when the burpee is the easiest part of the beat down”

All All MECA Backblasts

May 15th, 2017 By King Louie

Six men showed up to swing bells, and six (seven, did one leave?) showed up to ride bikes. We all met a little before 5:30 and then parted, the kettlebellers did something a little like this:

Quick disclaimer was given, to a starting small number of only 3 men. We went off on a brief mosey around the church and circled up for Warmorama:
SSH x 15
IST x 15
Cotton Picker x 15
Mountain Climbers x 15 – around this time, we were joined by @Soundwave!
Arm Circles
Michael Phelps

Near the very wend we were also joined by @Dunphy and started to carry our bells to the lower lot. At this time we were also joined by @Luxury!

The Thang:

We gathered around a square made up of 4 sheets of paper. A brief explanation was given for KB Snatches and V-Ups just in case. We then began King Louie’s Monkey King KB Stations:

Station 1:
KB Snatches x 7 each arm
V-Ups x 15
Mountain Climbers x 10
Clean and press x 5 each arm

Station 2:
KB Snatches x 7 each arm
Burpees x 10
Swing x 10
Clean and press x 5 each arm

Station 3:
KB Snatches x 7 each arm

Swing x 10
Clean and press x 5 each arm

Station 4:
KB Snatches x 7 each arm
Squat Presses x 10
Swing x 10
Clean and press x 5 each arm

Mosey to pull up bars and back, then repeato til time. No Mary. @Sharknado and I managed to finish 2.5 times around the whole set, with everyone else being around the 2-2.25 range I believe.

  1. Sound off below!

  2. Sounds like I missed an easy one. Not. What about Bike Kettle Bells?

  3. Great to hear that @Soundwave was there.

  4. Bru -tal. As usual. Really snatches – followed by clean and press – followed by burpees ( the easy part).
    Then KL goes and overachieves w 40/45lb on the snatch/lifts.
    We got our money’s worth today. Well done. I’m laying down to take a nap- I’m beat.

    Till the Dutch oven b down tomorw. Get ready!
