January 8th, 2016 By Chum

7 8 Pax profited under a plethora of pre-historic KB punishments in the primary hours of this present day.

CAPRI LAP

(after all it’s in the Lexicon, we gotta use it)

• SSH x 20IC
• HillBillies x 15IC
• WindMills x 10IC
• All hands Mosey to retrieve the blocks from Old Deere John (empty hands do litter control)

THE MAIN THANG

Weighted Carry Pyramid Ladder

• OH carry either 1 block or 2 bells 50 yds
• 1 bell / block merkin
• OH carry same burden to start
• 1 OH Squat
• repeato, increasing reps by 1 till 5 reps
• repeato, decreasing reps by 1 till 1 rep

Landmine Squat Challenge
(description as follows)

• A pax loads the lever with as many bells as they desire (mixing the poison)
• The same pax then takes said poison, (squats (ATG) the weighted lever to as many reps as possible,) (Meanwhile, the PAX circle performs a Merkin (or equal) for each squat rep)
• Then all pax perform called KB exercise to rep count = number of squats x number of bells on the lever.

1. Chum (demo-mode) – 2 bells x 10 squats = 20 KB swings
2. Swiss Miss (demo-mode) – 3 bells x 7 squats = 21 alternating KB swings
3. 10-key (climb on) – 4 bells x 9 squats = 36 KB swings
4. Capri (beast-mode) – 7 bells x 5 squats = 35 Russian twists
5. Blue Crush (beast-mode) – 6 bells x 6 squats = 36 racked Squats
6. Flashdance (rookie mode) – 2 bells x 10 squats = 20 KB Cleans
7. Steamboat Willie (rookie mode) – 2 bells x 11 squats = 22 KB Luganis
8. Tough Skins (final push) – 4 bells x 6 reps = 24 KB lawn mowers

MARY

• 2min stretch routine

YHC rolled up on site to find no one waiting on him. Maybe that’s because he rolled in a 0510. Gotta check that alarm clock thingy. Then the pax started rolling in. First flashdance, then Tough Skins, Swiss Miss and so on, till the appearance of Capri during his lap.

• Great to see the new guys coming to a gear site. Always glad to have fresh blood in the mix
• TCLAPS to Flashdance for making the trip from FM.
• YHC has yet to see the downside of his pyramids. Time typically kills that side as it did today.
• This morning’s balmy temps convinced the Capri show to un-don some layers. Beast-mode got sweaty in the balmy chill.
• great to see guys piling on the bells during the challenge. Great way to test menhood.

All Glory to God. Thanks again for allowing YHC to lead the PAX today. Always an honor. You too are freed to lead

AYE!
