You know I’m all about that 8, bout that 8
All All MECA BackblastsFebruary 8th, 2017
12 men came together to celebrate this great day, February the 8th. Well, that date may have some significance to someone somewhere but for yhc it was just an excuse to use the number 8 as a foundation for the workout. After getting some help to pull out our cinder blocks, then running one over with my truck, the fun could start.

Mosey up and around for a Warmarama:
- SSH (Hello #1)
- Windmill (Hello Genie)
- IST
- Merkin Warmup
- Air Squat
Head back down to the blocks and receive instructions for The Thang:
- 8 Cinder Block Thrusters
- Run to the drive way
- 8 Burpees
- Run to the stairs
- 8 Hand Release Merkins
- Run back to the blocks
- Repeato for a total of 8 laps
The PAX finished with 15 minutes to spare so we got some Block LBCs, Curls, and Incline Merkins to fill the remaining time.
Finish it off with some Pretzel Crunches and 2 sets of partner throw downs
COT, Namaramma, BOM, done.
Moleskin:
- Great push out there today men! This ended up sucking even more than I thought it would. It was a good total body beatdown, This one will make a reappearance. #spoileralert
- It was good to be back after almost 2 weeks down range. I almost missed you guys.
- @Sparky, sorry for destroying another one of your blocks… I blame the fog.
- Welcome FNG Dirty Bird! Great to have you out there with us!
- Time laps is coming up… all you need to know about it can be found HERE.
- Slack is here and will be an instrumental tool for us to communicate with each other and other AO’s around MeCa. Jump on the bandwagon.

Grinder, it’s great to have you back, however, that poor little cinder block was not happy that you crushed him with your truck. The eights workout kicked my butt by the 5th or 6th round, thanks for that. It must be rough getting back to the grind after 2 weeks of cruising around Central America. See you all on Friday!
It has been very tough coming back. I guess that’s the punishment you get for taking a vacation!
