A convergence of 15 challengers from Tradition and The Precinct took on The Academy monthly AMRAP on a humid 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. We had a couple Academy virgins with Dunphy, Durden, and Landlord and several repeat challengers who were ready to push it! Jumanji remembered to eat yesterday, so he was in much better form than his last attempt. My thanks to Gentle Grizzly, Hot Wheels, and Durden for the help with setting up this AM. My apologies to those who had to wait on a block or tire. We’ll put extras out next time! Anyway, here’s what we did…

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!
