Fletch Out (For Now)

The BackBlast:

It’s YHC last time for a few months in the best F3 region out there (Metro) as I head to the other best F3 region (Chicago), so I took the Q tonight at HDSD.

Gathered at the Cafe to start with some SSH, IW, and burpees. Mosey to Rose Hill for an exercise at each pole – merkins, squats, lunge, mountain climber. Plank at the top. Toe taps and biceps merkins before mosey down the other hill to do alternating wall work and incline / decline merkins and waybacks.

Mosey to the rock pile and do the Combine from 10-7 and then rock work; curls, presses, rock flutters, tris-for-guys, etc. Finish the Combine (6-1) and then mosey back to start. In the parking lot, we did an exercise at each corner – 10 hand-release merkins, 15 squats, 20 LBCs, 25 SSHs. Run forward, bear crawl, backwards run, and crawl bear between the corners, respectively. Ended with some Mary and then 3 more burpees for safety.

Fletch’s Filosophy Minute: I closed with Mary Oliver’s poem “A Summer Day” — what is it you plan to do with your one wild, and precious life? May we find awe and wonder instead of focusing on the ephemeral and fading material things of life.
