    Mosey around fountain to the parking garage.
    • Oden Hops, Got this routine while posting in Az on a business trip. PAX are required to hop every step to the top. At Ironclad PAX hopped every step in the stairwell to the top of the parking garage.
    While at the top of the garage PAX completed,
    • Ring of Fire LBCs, each PAX 20 reps 4ct
    • Ring of Fire BBS, each PAX 20 reps
    Once finished PAX made their way back down the stairwell.
    • Down 3 steps, followed by squat, rinse and repeat till bottom of stairs was reached.
    • Mosey back to flags.
    • Greta 1-2-3; It’s like Dora 1-2-3 but performed with each exercise using a 30lb cinderblock (YHC used Block Burpees, Overhead Press, and Chest Press). Also, while one of the pair is running, the runner is carrying another cinderblock to leave at the top of the run for the other to carry back. During the routine we had two cinderblock casualties.
