Today I met up
with Scoob, Greg, and Rob to hit a workout at Pinecliff Park right on the
Monocacy River. I loaded up the pickup
truck with a bunch of equipment tire, sledge hammer, barbells, bumper plates,
climbing rope, gravel-filled water jugs, and a kayak. We looked around for a suitable place to do
pull-ups but didn’t really find anywhere.
We brought the kayak to do a pull against the current with someone in
the kayak the plan failed miserably. So
we then partnered up and switched between shoulder to overhead while the other
partner does farmers walks or tire pulls.
Greg and I used 135lbs for the push presses and Rob and Scoob used
95lbs. This couplet was a complete
gasser and had us all trying to catch our breath. The tires didn’t pull very smoothly on the
asphalt so this was very taxing on the posterior chain. We also came up with a truck push, deadlift,
and sledgehammer swings. The fourth
person is steering and braking the truck as needed. I was a little skeptical about doing a truck
push with my leg injuries but they seemed to hold up alright. My boy Scoob was in charge of getting the
footage on the GoPro so he had it attached to his head for the majority of this
workout. Here’s the video check it out.
