12 men gathered at NBHS in very humid conditions for The Bear. Field of Dreams was a workout for the Bear back in January and YHC wanted to see how it would go over in the August heat. No FNGs so we jumped into….

Pre Thang (Employee parking lot)
- Bataan Death march – consisted of an Indian run( around parking lot) with person in the back of the line starts with 3 burpees then sprints to tap the next man ahead to stop for his 3 burpees, then run to front of the line. We cycled through this 3 times per man dropping down from 3, 2 , 1 burpees each. At the near corner we did 19 WWI. We then did a short travis mosey to the practice baseball field for…..

The rest of the Pax at the same time were to hold plank (until failure) until it was their turn. As we cycled down the line the rest of the Pax were just instructed to keep active by Planking, LBCs, or just straight laying down. Do to the heat, this part I admit was very disjointed. There was just enough time to mosey over to a near by wall to do a round of peoples chair and balls to the wall with 10 sec countdown per man. Then a short mosey back to flag for…
