THE THANG: Four Corner Dora

Partner travels around 4 corners of the main lot with a mosey/shuffle/mosey/shuffle per the 4 sides. Wait for group 6 to change exercises (low plank/pick up reps).

Complete the following as a pair:
– 50 x 10 Count Body Builders w/ Block, i.e. Blockee Builders
– 100 x Goblet Squats
– 200 x Curls
– 300 x Bench Press

MOLESKINE: Modified a bit for time to not rotate between corners for the exercises as originally planned since the cindy carry ate some time on both ends.

Now you know what you were feeling all of yesterday, but Timber has to be feeling it more than most as he went beast mode and crushed 2/3s of our pair’s reps and some of yours too! Pitmaster was knocking out reps with great form too on day one, great to have him out and to learn from his expertise in golf, whiskey, and barbecue, truly the good time trifecta.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– f3dads event on Saturday which was now yesterday, 77 attended!

COT:
– Prayers for Pitmaster’s friend Joe
– Prayers for G-string & his new 2.0

As always, it was an honor to be out at the pain-train, good to see some faces again and meet some new ones! Keep up the great momentum, men! You’ve got a great group and a great AO.

See You In The Gloom,

WARMUP: 1 lap truffle shuffle. Sunshine was looking good on the run.

Yes, burpees.

10 burpees. Go.

10 burpees. Go.

Feeling tired yet?

Chunks got out of the mental funk and started carrying the boats.

10 burpees. Go.

After 12 sets, Q decided he was no longer tired and decided to move the crew on.

The pax moved onto another lap around the park with a stop for low and slow merkins in cadence.

Pax finally moved to the hill to truffle shuffle up and do more merkins. Yeah, we did that a few times. Pep looked okay, but I promise he was feeling great.

Pax headed back towards the start and did some flutter kicks to round out the abs.

MOLESKINE: pax were sulking after the third set of burpees. How many more will we do? How much more of this can we take? Mind has a lot of power over the body.

All pax moved out of their funk and got hard after set 9. By set 11, everyone was getting stronger.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: nah

COT: prayers for kids present and kids to come.
