Looking for some shoulder activation we did some arm circles, Michael Phelps, overhead claps and some downward dog calf stretch and head thru the window for shoulders then to a good morning to hit the back

Given the challenge by Boo Boo to respond to the Army beatdown from Wednesday morning, YHC went on a search for some training programs from USA’s fine elite strike force in the Navy Seals. In my search I found that….I’m not positive I can even hang with their warmups. Found some workout schedules to lead into Seal training and decided to go with these, at a serious scaled down version. The training these Warriors go thru is tremendous and though RESPECT is an automatic…seeing the work that is put in, day in and day out, left me in awe. Not sure that my beatdown did enough to even scratch the 45 minute surface I had to work with but I know that we as HIM’s owe them and all servicemen everything we have and YHC intends to pay it back each day with every bead of sweat, every good deed for our community and every lending hand possible for those in need. These men and women lay everything on the line for us and we owe them by being the best versions of ourselves to lead the best Country in the world.
Though RESPECT is earned by all servicemen…..GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY!!!!
Since Seals operate in water pretty heavily there had to be some mods so…
40 yards of crawl bear
20 merkins – rest 30 seconds
25 BBS – rest 30 seconds
6 pull ups – rest 30 seconds
1/2 mile run (all this is scaled heavily from the program)
Back to the top of the lot – each movement is done AMRAP for 2 minutes with 1 minute in between
merkins
BBS
10 pull ups then run to the bottom of the hill
From here it was a Dora with hill sprints
1 or 2 Pax worked at the bottom while the remaining Pax would hill sprint to the top and do variation of
2 tractor tire flips
5 sandbag clean and press
30 ruck plate swings
This was done until work at the bottom of the hill was completed. Since this is a military themed all work was done as a cadence count though silent to each Pax. So each movement count is 2 = 1
100 Mountain Climbers (Sous Vides)
200 Side Straddle Hops
300 LBCs (though we ran out of time @ 100)

End in COT
