Introduction

You gotta give the lady in your life your undivided attention every now and then, so I thought what better way to kick today’s BD off than with Mary right out of the gate.

Warm-O-Rama

Took a short mosey to the upper softball complex field house to circle up.

Wind Mill
Sun Gods
Michael Phelps
Imperial Walkers

The Thang

All too often Mary doesn’t get the attention it deserves due to time constraints. YHC thought it would be a great (or torturous) idea to start things off with 6 Minutes of Mary.

6 Minutes of Mary:
Dolly
Rosalita
LBC
Dying Cockroach
Flutter Kicks
Knee-Ups
Freddie Mercury
Hold-Em Up

Mary crushed! YHC didn’t make any new friends on that one, but on the next one!

Burp-Back Mountain
PAX partnered up, First partner had to run up BA hill and back to starting position. Rinse and Repeat x 3. While partner one runs, partner two performs Burpees. Once partner 1 completes the first cycle of laps they switch. Continue until 100 Burpees have been completed. PAX was instructed to keep running hills or finish out burpees with the 6.

PAX knocked this bad boy out relatively quickly, YHC is gonna have to up the intensity or add a twist next go around. Short mosey to the softball field.

Field of Dreams
YHC assigned each member of the PAX a number 1-4.
1’s – First Base – Squats AMRAP
2’s – Second Base – Merkins AMRAP
3’s – Third Base – LBCs AMRAP
4’s – Home Plate – 15 Burpees

Once the 4’s complete their set of burpees they run to 1st base and each group moves up a base. Rinse and repeat until we cycle through 2 times. 0615 was encroaching upon as as the last group knocked out the Burpees. Nice job fellas! Mosey back to the flag for COT.

Circle of Trust

YHC shared the following quote:

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Wishing is not enough; we must do.
– Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Essentially, keep going to work. Nothing worthwhile in life is going to happen through apathy.

Continued prayers for Casper’s wife and his family. Prayers for all the brother’s who couldn’t make it out in the gloom this AM.

Naked Man Moleskin

YHC thought switching Mary to the beginning of the workout was a nice change and kept things interesting. The PAX is getting faster and more resilient, YHC is going to have to start mixing things up some more. BA Out!
