The Woodshed PAX started their workout with a clear 33 degree morning, as always not knowing what was in store for them. Hopefully they were confident that YHC would bring a full body workout, guaranteed or their money back!
We got started with a quick mosey out of the parking lot towards the back of the activity center at Meadowfield Elementary School. Pipes (apparently jockeying to get himself out of another relay race) took a spill, but didn’t let that slow him down (those Woodsheders are tough).
We circled up behind the activity center to take on: SSHs, IWs, Mtn Climbers, Squats, Merkins, & American Hammers, x25 4 ct except Merks (25 OYO).
From there we moseyed to the cage to retrieve cinder blocks (Teddy and Foxhole didn’t blink to take the 3 hole heavies) and take on: Curls for the Girls, Shoulder Press, Tricep Extensions, and Napalms. Rinse and Repeat for Round 2. We finished with Military-legit Sit-ups (feet in blocks, hands locked behind head, full sit-up to knees), Flutter Kicks, and In-and-Outs.
At this point the PAX were getting kinda grumpy, so YHC kept up the intensity. We moseyed to the playground for 2 min AMRAPs. AMRAP 1: 5 Pull Ups/15 Squats (rinse and repeat until 2 minutes are up). AMRAP 2: 10 Merkins/10 Standing Lunge counting each leg (rinse and repeat until 2 minutes are up). AMRAP 3: back to 5 Pull Ups/15 Squats (rinse and repeat until 3 minutes are up).
Next we took on Ark Loader Suicides.
Round 1: Bear Crawl forward and backwards from end court line to foul line and back, and then to mid-court and back.
Round 2: Same thing with Crab Walks.
Round 3: Same thing with Duck Walks.
3 Minutes of Mary to finish: Peter Parkers, Crab Cakes (aka Low Country Crabs), and Monkey Humpers.

FNG Eric an engineer that works at Harsco Rail did great at his first F3 post, hung in there awesome-like. Named Caboose but YHC is sure it won’t be long and he’ll be an Engine leading a workout. Keep coming back Caboose!
