Northeast Tennessee

Extensive Use of the Block

Northeast Tennessee Arrowhead (Indian Trail) Johnson City

The temperature today was not memorable so I don’t think it had an effect on the suck that was to come.  4 PAX brought their block under the impression they will get their $1.97-worth, or whatever was paid for such equipment.

DISCLAIMER

COP

  • Mountain man poopers IC x10
  • Sticky butt kickers IC x5

We started moving with our blocks, let’s call it the warmup, but eventually it turned into the thang.

Slow mosey (really a walk) to turn one

  • 6 uneven merkins on the block

Slow mosey to the south goal

THE THANG

A declining ladder at a 3:1 ratio, starting with:

  • 21 block kettlebell swings
  • 7 pull-up negatives (we called it that, stressing a 4 count on the way down)

Then 18/6, 15/5, 12/4, 9/3, 6/2, 3/1

Slow mosey back to the flag, stopping at the swings to do a round of the 6 exercises from before.

Slow mosey back to start

All those sixes must have woke the devil because the flag dropped on the way back – 10 burpee penalty
