Circuit Day @ Atlas

Preamble:

Got there early to set up.  Today’s beat down will include Atlas stones, cinder blocks and Kettlebells.  I saw on Slack that Circus was joining us.  Haven’t seen him in a while…

Warm-O-Rama:

SSH x 10

Copper-Head Squats x 10

Imperial Walker x 10

Monkey Humpers x 10

Toy Soldier x 10

The Thang:

To Cage the Elephant’s smash hit “Whole Wide World”, the PAX gets into a plank position and does Mountain Climbers throughout the song.  When the chorus says “Whole Wide World”, the PAX does a merkin. Now it’s time for some circuits.

Since we had 8, perfect numbers to partner up.  4 stations, 2 PAX per station.  After completing a station, bear crawl to the light (which is equivalent from the foul line to second base) and crab walk back.  Then move to the next station.

Kettlebell Station:  2 sets total, 20 reps in each set:

1. V-Chops
2. Swings
3. Halos
4. Overhead Squats

Cinder Block Station: 2 sets total, 20 reps in each set:

1. Thrusters
2. Overhead Press
3. Chest Press
4. Forward Lunges

Atlas Stones: 2 sets total, 20 reps in each set:

1. Squats
2. Deadlifts
3. Cleans
4. Decline Merkins

No Coupons: 2 sets total, 20 reps in each set:

1. Bonnie Blairs
2. Wide Arm Merkins
3. J-Lo’s

I had sets outlined for another round, but we were at time after this round.

COT:

No announcements.  Thankful for the group to come out this morning.  Everyone busted their butt.
