I head to an old stomping ground for my next Q, this time bringing with me an assortment of kettlebells for a Hell’s Bell’s beatdown at FOD! I also notice that Rolling Stone is here with me so all kinds of weight pain are going around this fine morning. 16 HIM gather, 3 with their ruck’s on, we head out around the parking lot to get the blood going then circle up for:
Warm Up
Good mornings
Overhead Claps
Cotton Pickers
Sir Fazio Arm Thingies
The Thang
Done with the warm-up, we head back to the shelter next to the baseball fields. YHC had deposited the bells evenly amongst the tables with two weights on the path and an exercise ball on the other end. We pair up at each station with two of the HIM is going to farmer carry the two weights down the path while the rest of the HIM perform the first round (all done OYO):
Nut-cracker squats
Curls
Halos
Goblet Squats
Tri-cep Extensions
Lawn Mowers
Weight ball-toss
We rotate positions and exercises once the farmer carry returns until everyone has had a turn with the farmer carry. We then mosey around the parking lot and back to our stations. With everyone back at the shelter we start round two:
Kettlebell swings
Lawn Mowers
Curls
Overhead Presses
Nut cracker squats
Weight ball-toss
Once the farmer carry is done, we mosey once more around the parking lot and back to the shelter for the final round of upper body workouts:
Snatches
Curls
Goblet Squats
Overhead Presses
Upright Rows
Ball Toss
With a few minutes to spare, we each grab a kettlebell and circle up for:
Mary
Mary with a kettlebell is a little different as you are generally holding the bell during the workout. Mary included a variety of the following exercises while rotating to your right to get different weights:
WW2 sit-ups on the up
Freddie Mercuries in cadence
Dying cockroach
LBCs in cadence
American Hammers
Ruckers bear crawled around the circle of Mary
6:30 rings in my head and time to stop. The Ruckers come over and sit with us for COT.
