Preamble:

While watching Atlanta United the previous night, I got a dastardly idea and told everyone to bring cinders and gloves.

IronPax taught a lot of people to hate cinder blocks, but strangely it made me love these things even though I keep scraping my nose on them.

Warm-O-Rama:

Circled up in the parking lot for the usual SSH, Weedpickers, Hillbillies, and a mosey around the parking lot to loosen up.

The Thang:

  1. Moseyed to the pool parking lot, partner block style.  One partner carries both cinders while the other runs to the stop sign and back.  Swap and repeat until you get to the destination.
  2. MAXIMUM EFFECT
    1. Round 1:  All pax do decline merkins until muscle failure and then run to the end of the parking lot and back.  Repeat for a total of 5 sets.
    2. Round 2:  Overhead presses with 50 SSH.  Also 5 sets
    3. Round 3:  Curls with 15 curb dips (block in lap)
  3. Challenge:  Try to handwalk – feet on the curb – the full length of a parking island.  Pax w/o gloves were hating life!  Many pax were successful but it was tough.

COT:

  1. Alpha Region 5 year anniversary convergence coming up!
