Need somebody to help update BB form AOs.
4 pax arrived ready to show the Sad Clowns of Southend why Barry’s Bootcamp is for #vanitymuscles, while F3 is for #preparedness. Sure, you could argue Barry’s has hot chicks in yoga pants, so does Punch Bowl. Yuengling was supposed to make it 5 but you know… he’ll “be there”
– WARM-O-RAMA –
lead by Scrooge…. slowly…. somberly…
SSH then mozy to the shovel flag flying in the wind out in front of Atherton Mill for all the millennials to see on their way to the gym, or home from the newest brewery. (Atherton Mill is in South End for all you Cotswold natives – ask your wife, she’ll know, its near Lululemon and the ridiculously expensive furniture store that wishes it was RH)
Pretty sure it’s where the old Spaghetti Factory was, if that jogs any memories for the Respects who figured out how to access this post (tclaps). Pledge of Allegiance, time for the workout to start
– THA THANNG –
YHC in charge now. Grab your gear, make for the Publix parking deck lower level. Quick stop in the #windtunnel for a few TPPs followed by bag tosses and bear crawls. Gear up and continue to the lower level of deck.
Drop your crap and grab some wall – (ruck on) Mike Tysons x 5, bear crawl to the first pillar, squats x 10. Repeato.
Ruck up, grab ya gear and head back to the #windtunnel. Time for Rose to run the show.
Rose picked up the torch with more bag tosses and squats before heading over to the bench for dips and some other exercise I can’t remember – YHC was too busy complaining about the cramp in my neck and catching flack for being the warbaby.
Gear up, time to flex on the clowns at Barry’s as we do every Wednesday at 6am like clockwork. Join us some time, its fun. Who will be the first to call Balls 2 the Wall on Barry’s windows? (My money is on Evil Scout, if we ever see him at a rucking AO, not sure his fund advisor biceps can handle it).
The sad clowns look on in curiosity, the yoga pants flock to the gym just in time for spin class, or whatever the hell they do in there, but Rose has his eyes on the staircase and definitely nothing else except the staircase….
Stairway to Heaven – lots of gear. lots of laps. lots of steps.
Once all the gear makes it to the top, its time for some calf raises. Cuz that’s what sets us apart from the SCs of Barry’s & the like. Rose had mercy on TD and offered him permission to hold on to the wall. He refused it but I didn’t check in, he may have touched it a time or two.
Scrooge’s late night meal from Shake Shack (also in Southend, but you may know it from Park Rd) was still on the parking deck exit ramp, but that didn’t stop the pax from getting back in time for the CoT.
– COT –
