THE THANG: – – Death by Burpees – –

YHC ran a 1 minute timer and every minute we performed 5 burpees. In between burpees a “resting” exercise was called to give a “break” between sets. Pax performed lunges, bear crawls, LT Dans, and various forms of merry.

Pax made it through 36 sets for a total of 180 burpees but felt called to beat the record I set at greenmachine last year. A final 21 were tagged at the end bringing the total count to 201 burpees.

MOLESKINE: do you guys remember doing anything other than running the stairs? I don’t feel like my body even registered doing any merkins or squats. Agreed with the positive feedback that having some stationary work provides for good mumble chatter. Even though my knee really hurt by the end, was able to finish strong thanks to being pushed by some of y’all. Good work out there.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: check slack, things seem a little slow?

COT: Patty is getting married on 9/8, prayers for his friend Tom, Salami is one step closer to selling his place in Cali, Natty and Spinal Tap are starting a men’s Bible study…and I may have missed one more
