Major Pain’s hotel workout comes to the Valley
All All MECA BackblastsNovember 16th, 2015
5 men came together for a Major Pain led beatdown at the Valley. More were supposed to show, but somehow their clown car got lost. We learned a lot about what Major Pain likes to do in a hotel room. Also learned that his ass is still hurting from Saturday. Hmmm….
Warmup
– SSH x 15
– IST x 15 (Major Pain took a moment here to tell us how we should be doing these)
– Cotton pickers x 15
The Thang
– Mosey over to the map of the US
Major Pain told us that we were going to do a set of three exercises every minute for 20 minutes. Sounded easy enough. Then he showed us the exercises. It was at this point that we started to learn more about what he did in the hotel rooms during his year of traveling. I hope he didn’t scare too many hotel employees. Here are the exercises:
– Squat Thrust x 6
– Table top x 5
– hand release merkins x 4
After 20 minutes that was pretty tough. All five of us were successful. We did another little mosey as a break. At this point The Farm asked Major Pain again about his hotel room. We were noticing a trend. Innkeeper and I got a little worried.
– Returned to the US map. Major Pain got on his soapbox about how he always sees guys do the squat wrong and that’s how we keep hurting ourselves. This is when we learned that his ass still hurt from saturday. Farm and I just looked at each other. Anyway, we did some squats. We practiced facing the wall. This is when The Farm told us that his M asked him to stay in bed last week instead of going out to the cruise. He went to the cruise. Strange little man.
Mary
– Did a bunch of Mary exercises. Major Pain told us to elongate our heads during one of them. The comments kept going downhill from there.
Moleskin
– Nice job by all this morning. I enjoyed the 20 minute part. It was tough.
– We definitely learned a lot about Major Pain’s hotel experiences. I really hope the grunting didn’t scare people off.
– During the Table Top exercise Farm kept telling everyone to not look into his eyes.
– Also learned that Farm’s M is 5 ft 9.5 inches and Farm is only 5 feet 4 inches. Well done sir.

@Jelly thanks for the backblast! Sorry for the soapbox! Thanks for showing up.
No need to apologize brother. I know you want to help and I appreciate it. Nice work this morning.
Thanks for the Q MP. I can’t believe we didn’t pick any rocks up during your beatdown… Also can’t believe you’re 6’6″??? You guys just remember, big things come in small packages.
@Major Pain: Enjoyed it this morning. Sometimes the simple beatdowns are the most effective. Today was no exception. And definitely no need to apologize, we ALL need a reminder on proper form from time to time as we get to focused on speed and completing reps quickly. Hope my ass isn’t hurting two days from now ;-).
@The Farm, that’s NOT what she said….. LOL. Good to know you’re sporting boys 12’s!
Thanks Major Pain. That was a great, simple and challenging beatdown this morning that delivered. I will certainly be stealing it in the future I’m sure.
