Skeet is leading the charge to start a 90 day KB strength training regimen, McAfee is strongly encouraging PAX to take a look at diet and put as many grams of protein as possible on your plate! Rule of Thumb = 1g of protein for every lb of your ideal weight. So if you want to gain 5 lbs of muscle, take your current weight, add 5, that’s your daily protein intake goal in grams!

Devils and Coupons v0.2

AO: devilsden
Q: McAfee
PAX: Skeet, Flash, Linus
FNGs: None
COUNT: 4
CONDITIONS: Easy and breezey 60s

WARMUP: set up our game pieces, aka Troll Bait, aka Coupons, with PAX getting loose OYO. Special shoutout to Flash for getting in 2 miles via a nice mosey from his house to the AO!

THE THANG: Devils and Coupons v0.2!
There is a nasty troll that lives under the bridge at Devil’s Den, he’s a very nasty troll; slothful, lazy, arrogant, jealous, impatient, unkind, and persistently attempting to bring HIM down to his level. It is the physical embodiment of what Rogan and Goggins refer to as one’s “inner b”, and it must be defeated, again, and again, and again, in perpetuity.

To defeat the troll, our intrepid band took turns rolling for advantage and to determine rep count.
Station 1 – Dips (natural 2x multiplier)
Station 2 – Troll Killers aka Man Makers
Station 3 – Pull Ups (Merkins for the rest of the PAX)
Station 4 – Coupon Shoulder Press

Each round we increased the multiplier from 1x, to 2x, to 3x, and made it to 4x before time. In total each PAX performed ~100 dips, ~75 merkins, ~40 pull-ups, plus man-makers and shoulder press. Safe to say the troll was defeated, as were our arms.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Chad Challenge at Misty Mountain on Friday!
