“Engage the glutes.”
“To the sack.”
“Lil’ buddy.”
All sayings from Boyd Lee Beatdown’s fearless leader, Abu, that have been used many of times and heard by several F3ENC PAX. Sure, they make for great jokes, but they are all sayings we think about while slinging kettlebells. Abu always breaks down the science of the kettlebell, and so YHC tries taking notes just in case YHC is shoulder tapped to lead BLB. YHC didn’t quite use these sayings throughout the beatdown (didn’t feel comfortable), but YHC tried to help remind the PAX proper technique. 0700 came about and it was time to:
WARM-UP
20 x SSH IC
10 x Merkins IC
10 x Squats IC
10 x Good Mornings IC
THE THANG
YHC slightly modified several different kettlebell WODs for time and safety (since it decided to pour down rain). YHC also didn’t have cool music like Abu and decided to keep the PAX together throughout each WOD.
WOD 1:
4 x Rounds
20 x Russian Swings
10 x Merkins
10 x American Swings
15 x Squats
WOD 2:
3 x Rounds
10 x Push Press (Right Arm then Left Arm)
10 x Front Rack Single-Legged Squats (Right Arm then Left Arm)
10 x Single-Arm Swings (Right Arm then Left Arm)
WOD 3:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Kettlebell Clean (Right Arm then Left Arm)
Goblet Squats
YHC had to call an audible. The first round was 10 x Kettlebell Snatches but, with the rain, YHC was concerned the Kettlebells were going to fly.
WOD 4:
5 x Reps Each (as many rounds as possible until time)
Kettlebell Thrusters
Burpees
Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift High Pull
Burpees
BOM/COT
Collapsed condo in Florida
Giuliani’s Uncle
Staying Focused
Boston Lager’s Mother-in-Law
Sasquatch on July 31st
Moleskin
Although the rain made the beatdown a tad bit more challenging, it was still a great time with a great group of guys. Thank you to everyone who attended as YHC was thankful of the support from each PAX. Don’t be afraid to grab a light Kettlebell and try something different if you haven’t been to a Boyd Lee Beatdown before *coughcoughrunnerscoughcough*. It is always a challenge but it is always a good time.
