Introduction
I wanted to create a simple workout with some running and lifted that would challenge the OGs and be assessable to a variety of people. The emphasis here is on keeping it simple. My Qs are well planned but often have an element that lacks clarity and requires thinking. Some people just like to show up, workout and not think. SO i picked 4 coupon exercises, 1 I tried to make one and it failled 🙁 and also my favorite non- coupon exercise.
Warm-O-Rama
- Good mornings
- Imperial Walkers
- Hairy rockets
- Tie fighters
- Superman
- Michael Phelps
The Thang
Two groups:
Group 1- runs suicides to each parking line and back and ultimately to the other end when you reach the other end pick up the 6 in your group. And do 15 hand release merkins in cadence as a group.
Group 2- in the circle coupon exercises until group 1 returns.
Then switch.
15 reps each – repeat- every time you come back, pickup where you left off.
- Deadlift
- Coupon Supermans(ended up doing regular ones)
- Imperial Blockers
- Blockies
Mary
- Pickle Pushers
- Big Boys
- Heel Taps
- Some stretching.
Circle of Trust
My COT focused on a quote from an Artist named “Dax” I first found this artist when I found his sound called “To Be a Man” that speaks to mens issues that are often forgotten.
This song “Dear God” which the quote is from, is an open letter to god. He starts and ends by saying that he is in fact a believer and that he’s not questioning the existence of god. But he wants some answers.
The quote is: I’m supposed to fear you, but you don’t say shit, so maybe it’s you that fear me.”
I interpret this quote as such: God fears what we would be without him. Men should fear what they would be without a grounding. Fear in this case can be a good motivator.
