May the 4th called for a Star-Wars themed workout. After YHC could not think of a Star-Wars themed workout, we settled on a “4” themed workout.

Big, high-energy group this morning. Hard to have a bad day after a beatdown and coffee with 18 of your fellow brothers.

Warm up: Some combination of SSH, weedpickers, mountain climbers, and more weedpickers (also known as imperial walkers)

The Thang:

Mosey to the stone wall

11’s: Drop jump squats and merkins

Mosey to the track

PAX split up into groups of 4

4 PAX Team Conga Line w/
  1. 4 count burpees w/ split jacks
  2. 4 count squat into SL lunges
  3. 4 count merkin w/ shoulder taps
  4. recovery run 100 meters and back to start

We made it through 2 sets with the first one being 15 reps (TY Gump) second one being 9 reps

400’s, sit-ups, and merkins

PAX remained in their groups of 4. 2 PAX would run 400m together while the other 2 held back doing merkins and sit-ups, alternating after failure. Once the 2 PAX completed 400m, switch. Each group got through 100 merkins and sit-ups.

Mosey back to the start

Mary – american hammers, dying cockroaches, ankle grabbers
