Ministry of Silly Walks...

In our next display of jackassery sure to eventually get us kicked out of Bowman Fitness, we will be pacing the gym floor looking rediculous, and taking up as much room and getting in as many people's way as possible.

GO INFIDEL!



AMRAP in 20 Minutes of

  • 10 Pull-Ups
  • 20 Walking Lunge Steps to dip station @ 2x 5040lb DB
  • 20 Dips
  • Overhead carry @ 2x 5040lb DB back to pull-up station equivalent distance to lunge steps.







RESULTS
Jason - 4.5 rounds
...the next day
Seth - 5.5 rounds (just a few lunges shy) As Rx
Justin - 5 rounds Mods: Used 100lb barbell for Lunges (back rack) and OHC. 10 Ring Dips per round.

Well, there was some old trainer dude bogarting the squat rack where we do pull-ups, which made this one impossible to do. Seth and I ended up doing the 300 workout (above) so that baldy could do his 6 sets of 135lb sissy squats.

Jason, on the other hand, in typcial fashion, schooled it on his own, at home. His lunge steps and OH carries ended up being about 60ft in length, so I'm changing the Rx. Seth and I will do this workout tomorrow, and Jason will do the 300.

Due to my apparent lack of ability to hold dumbbells over my head this week, and in an attempt to get more comfortable with a barbell over my head, I swapped them out and upped the weight a little bit. After having done it, though, I still don't think a 100lb barbell is as hard as 90lbs of DB's overhead. Maybe the fact that I had to clean and press it to get it on my back for the lunges makes up for it, idonno. This sucked, though.

This was all kinds of hard. Took 3 trips across the gym (down, back, down) to get all the lunge steps in. Failed to slow down for the turn during the first OHC and nearly lost the weights. Did better in later rounds, though it helped that I wasn't moving nearly as fast.

This was harder than I expected. I will really be feeling the lunges over the weekend.

Great set of workouts this week. Huge props to Jason for doing them on his own. Excellent job!
