IronPax Week 2: CMU’s on CMU’s

THE SCENE: Old Forest: Buggy and Muggy. 75 and high humidity. I got bit by lots and lots of midtown’s finest skeeters.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER: Yes, especially instructions about not hurting our backs doing thrusters and swings.

WARM-O-RAMA:
SSHx15, IWx15, Daisy Pickerx15, Windmillx15, Mosey Lap.
THA-THANG:
This was the workout, per F3 Greenwood’s Iron Pax Challenge Week 2.

  • 8 min, as many rounds as possible of:
    • 25 reps
    • 25 yard out and back run
  • 2 min mandatory rest.
  • Round 1: CMU Thrusters
  • Round 2: CMU Curls
  • Round 3: CMU Swings (a la Kettlebell Swings)
  • Round 4: CMU ManMakers
    • Our CMU’s varied a lot. YHC made sure to get a gazelle CMU. Pirtle definitely had a clydesdale CMU. That sucker ain’t no joke.

MARY:
Nope.

MOLESKIN:
Bottomless and Handsy are crushing it with AOQ duties. Flags were unfurled, FNG’s were begloved and beblocked faster than they could say “side straddle what?” This workout was a total gasser. MAJOR props to our leaders in Memphis on this one, Slots and Bombay.
