Tutti arrived late, offered an opportunity to redeem himself by stating the 5 core principles in order and there would be no burpee penalty. He got 4.5 of them, and not in the correct order.
5 Burpees
10 MNC IC
10 Chinooks IC each way
10 TTT
Mosey down the bus loop to where cindy's and the battle rope were setup.
Tha Thang:
Goal today was to burnout on several exercises. This was accomplished with a circle of stations and a timer that would do a lap and then hand off the timer weights to the next station. You only changed stations when all pax had done the timer and it finally got to you. The timer was 2 35lb dumbbells that had to be carried by a dish towel wrapped around the handle. This should've worked grip, but each lap may not have been long enough to really burn the forearms as planned. The station exercises did burn as planned though.
The stations were:
Tug o Cindy (2 PAX face each other in a people's chair while holding Cindy between them)
American Hammers
Kettle bell swings
Everyones Favorite Chest Exercise – Merkin
Overhead Press
Very Heavy Cindy Curls with the Q Block
Everyones Favorite Leg Exercise – Cindy Squats
Rope Battle
Because of the numbers posting at Colosseum lately, YHC was certain there would be at least 10. This station setup required 10 PAX (1 timer, 2 on tug o Cindy, 7 other stations). With only 9, there was some slight confusion on which station would get skipped. But we figured it out. YHC was prepared with additional stations to spell out "BC Takeover", "The Takeover", "The BC Takeover", and even "Pooler Takeover", but alas YHC neglected to account for <10 PAX. Lesson learned.
Merkins, Very Heavy Curls, Battle Rope, and Tug O Cindy were exceptionally rough to wait for all timers to come around. If you weren't exhausted from it, that means you took too many breaks.
