A Samson Tradition Begins

Event Date

Jun 11, 2020

AO


So many traditions have popped up at several AO's in the region so I got to thinkin over the shutdown…..Darn, Samson needs something like that!!!  Took the priviledge and the honor of trying to start a tradition on the Second Samson (that would be the 2nd Thursday) of the month to do a workout that emerged during the shutdown as the Samson Suicide!!!  Here is how the First Samson Suicide went down:

Warmorama:

Mosey, shuffle, karioke, high knees, butt kicker throught parking lot and was reminded by several that we had a good turnout and that I should not ruin it!!!  Circle up!

SSH x 15IC; IST x 15IC; CP X 10IC; WM X 6 IC (I know!); TS X 10 IC…….Grab a block and line up along the hedge!!!

Thang:

So you already know the suicide route and we would do that to 5 different islands and back.

Phase 1: Ascending Merkins by 1 at each island; when you return to the start, 1 block burpee each time……Toxic correctly referred to this as a Blurpee!!

Phase 2: Ascending Squats by 2 at each island; when you return to the start, 2 blurpees each time……not much comment at this point in the workout……

Phase 3: Ascending CDD by 3 at each island; when you return to the start, 3 blurpees each time……many were questioning Bob Ross Blurpee technique……

Phase 4: Ascending Lunges by 4 at each island, when you return to the start, 4 blurpees each time……

Final Stats: 15 Merkins; 30 Squats; 45 CDD; 60 Lunges; 60 Blurpees and all the running in between!!!

Put the blocks back and Mosey to launch point for…..

Mary:

15 LF IC; 5 LBC IC; 10 LF IC; 10 LBC IC; 5 LF IC; 15 LBC IC

Moleskin:

Great group today…….Snake Eyes took us out in style; Bob Ross is improving his Blurpee; TugBoat loves to chat and sweat; Swede back from Self Isolation!!!; Freedom a surprise guest as he usually loves the pillow the night after NightRanger; Red October in beast mode with long pants and Ruck Sak; Rooter killin it as a new daddy!!!; Toxic, well……he was……

Thanks for the opportunity!

Until next time!
