Eight manly-men (and YHC) were not afraid of handling a few “Balls of Iron” this Gloom.  Sounds worse than it was as the “balls” in question were golf balls.  Trying to mix it up on a standard HBurg Bells Friday with some Pax interaction. I set up my equipment which consisted of 2 large bucket of golf balls, a smaller bag with golf balls that has the names of certain KBell exercises written on them, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, the fancy speaker ;-).

0530 – a lousy disclaimer was given, and we were off for a litte Warm-O-Rama. We mosey’d down to the end of the lot by the tennis courts and did the following:
-SSHx10 IC
-ISTx10 IC
-Penny Pickerx10 IC
-Happy-Appyx10
-Mt Climberx10 IC
Mosey on back to the shelter.

Explanation ensued and the look of disappointment on the Pax faces was priceless.

The Thang
1. Pax (without looking) pulls out a golf ball with said exercise written on it.
2. He announces it to the group and then the rest of the Pax does said exercise AMRAP.
3. The Pax who pulled the ball (Ha!) grabs the two-large bucket of golf balls and does a Farmers Carry around the building.  Hence, he was the timer.
4. Upon return, the next Pax pulls out a ball (Ha!x2) and takes their turn with the Farmers Carry.
5. Repeato until everyone gets a turn grabbing a ball (OK, enough).
We got 3 full rounds in before we ran out of exercises.

Count/Name-O-Rama
Announcements
-All the usual TAP’s, nothing major going on in the ‘burg other than we canceled the 4th of July Parade due to extenuating circumstances.  Next year.
-Great to have Sam (FNG) come out.  @Overdrive, get him out again so we can name him! Would love to have him as part of our Pax.

YHC took us out
Always an honor.
SYITG!
