The BackBlast:

It’s meltdown.  Basically it’s the county fair of workouts. You go for the same things–the  tilt a whirl, the elephant ear, the bearded lady. You know you can count on the experience.  It’s always a good thing, and that’s why you keep going back.  I ain’t sayin’ my beatdown is as good as an elephant ear, or that it’s as interesting as the bearded lady, but for sure Meltdown produces the memories.

Which of course starts with a standard. Because even the best of memories starts with a standard.

For the main event, it was as simple as cotton candy. A little sugar, a little heat and air, and you got yourself a confection extraordinaire.

10 teapot clean snatch press R then L

10 burpees
10 split squat barishnakov rdl curtsey R then L
10 burpees
Intermission, which meant mosey to hippie hill for partner work. 4 rounds of partner A doing static hold, B runs up and down the hill.
10 kb merkin chest press renegade row lawnmower
10 burpees
Time was called with 2 rounds not done, but that’s like rain shutting down the tea cup ride just before closing time. You got your money’s worth, so don’t complain.
