No More Cold Pizza (la pizza No Más frío)
All All MECA BackblastsNovember 15th, 2016
No Mas. It’s called that because of the relentless pain this WIB delivers. It’s a creeper. You think you’ll be OK….but then you realize your as in over your head as Lane Meyer was when Charles (AKA Booger) slapped him on the back at the top of the slope. But unlike this scene from the most classic of 80s movies, todays conflict wouldn’t be settled on the slopes, but on the ball court courtesy of the ‘Pizza Box of Pain’!
It all started when YHC rolls up, plants the flag and in one challenging motion tosses the pizza box of pain in the middle of the RS ‘early guy circle’. These guys are the go getters! The ones who are chomping at the bit to get started. A bunch of them. Some from the land of Chicken Foot, some wayward RS sons greeted with Kotters and even one who kinda looks like The Nanny but is really Verona (side note: Halloween costume idea for 2017, just sayin’). All tall skinny guys look alike anyway right?? BUT, not all pizza boxes contain the same amount of pain – as we will see in due time!
Warm up:
Mosey to school entrance for a shout out to Draco and then on to the teacher lot for a little get warm action:
SSH x 20
Mountain Climbers x 15
Cotton Pickers x 15
Windmills x 15
Diamond Merkins x 10
At this point I know the suspense is killing everyone so off to the ball courts where the majority of the PAX look at me with that final scene of ‘7’ look in theirs eyes as if to say “what’s in the box, WHAT”S IN THE BOX?” Although a severed head would be kinda cool and surprising, everyone knows that there’s no way a severed head would actually fit in a pizza box. (Not that kind of men’s group) It’s just a bunch of sharpie scribbling with the instruction for one of the best WIBs of all – No Mas!
The Thang:
NoMas Workout: partner-up, rising ladder exercise, each exercise is done individually with partner resting, each exercise is done down & back across basketball court (~15 yards), so the sequence is 1-1, 2-2-1-1, 3-3-2-2-1-1, …9-9-8-8-7-7-6-6-5-5-4-4-3-3-2-2-1-1

3 Backwards Run
4 Karaoke
5 Frogger (jump squats)
6 Slalom (two foot 45 degree top)
7 Bear Crawl
8 Burpee Broad Jump
9 Power Skip
Call it for Mary:
LBCs x 20
Pretzel stick x 10
Rosalita with some Homer to Marge thrown in
Wrap it up with some J-Lo’s x 10
Moleskin:
It’s truly a pleasure just being with you guys in the gloom and an even greater pleasure to have lead all of you today. Thanks for playing along! To the newer PAX, this is a tough WIB yet I saw everyone pushing and working the whole time. Well done! Keep posting! Not such a new PAX? This is still always a tough one! Well done! Keep posting! We are coming up on some tough months as the weather gets colder. Keep Posting! We do this outside for a reason – #3S2T!
We are truly blessed with what we have in F3! What better Christmas gift to give to a Sadclown than the Camaraderie and Accountability that we know! There’s an EH challenge for December coming up so let’s be thinking about someone to EH this December?

Awesome morning! Aye!
@Sugar, I remember this workout – I think the translation for “la pizza No Mas Frio” to English is “Good day to be on IR.”
I recall many glooms ago leading a group of stoners to the land of NoMas, but alas that was some time ago and Pox has been NoMas at RollingStone.
However, all is not lost as a Pox return is planned very soon….you have to show to know
Glad to see the NoMas legacy lives on.
About time to push the little yellow car again. #justsayin
Crazy workout. Probably the most gassed I have been. Love it though.
Nice to get back out to enjoy the fellowship, even though mumble chatter was at complete minimum today. Great to hear the continuous words of encouragement across the PAX!
Whoa!!! Will definitely need a preblast for the return of Pox the great!!!
Love this mamajama! Claimed a calf with only 2 or 3 to go! The Slalom to be specific. Sucker hurts! Thanks to Ty for the push and finish!
Big props to 1st date who may have earned a second with today’s performance!
Nice WIB, Sugar, and thanks for partnering up, Hummer.
Sparknut was the form police today, POX would be proud.
Until next time.
How can I ever muster the confidence to write another back blast if compared to such eloquent prose as Sugar’s? If there is a prize for back blast creativity and structure, it certainly goes to you sir.
@Pox – Your return will be met with fanfare. Please be sure to preblast.
