After a couple of months of beta tests, name debates, speculation, scandal and rumors, the newest AO in the Southwake opened!!

As the east coast braced for Hurricane Jaoquin by snuggling in their beds, the PAX of Southwake made the choice to get stronger and be High Impact Men #HIM this morning.  Who cares about PRECIPITATION – we were looking for PERSPIRATION.  12 in the Pax. 3 posted for a Ruck workout – 9 posted for a parallel beatdown.  The Southwake Shovel Flag was planted and we were off.

Warmup:

  • Jog around the soccer fields (1/3 mile) stopping in opposite corners for warm up exercise.  A total of 2 laps
    • SSH x 20 + jog
    • Good mornings X 10 + jog but pick up the pace
    • Imperial Walkers x 20 + jog and pick up the pace
