9 alpha, type A males joined forces to do what 9 tough guys would naturally be expected to do. Get tougher! @King Julian ran 2 miles to warm up, YHC ran 1 pre-beatdown (appetizer) and 2 post-beatdown (dessert) to pair with the main course. After some talk about two of our newest pax @Styx and @Airhead being married (but not to each other), we got to it.

Line up on the curb, get in half squat aka @Febreze squat position and side do side squats across the parking lot and back. YHC explained that his PT @Big Mean has recommended this exercise to strength my glutes and cure/prevent IT band issues. You’re welcome pax and remember to squeeeeeze those glutes.

The Thang:

YHC pulled out a deck of cards and asked @2Step to shuffle the deck, after which he immediately dropped them. This was a bit of foreshadowing into @2Step’s behavior during the rest of the workout.

Four suits. Four exercises. Lots of reps.

Spades = Mason twists x 2
Clubs = WWII Sit ups x 2
Hearts = Lunges x 2
Diamonds = Air Squats x 2

No time for Mary!

Moleskin:

@2 Step established himself as the @Febreze of today’s workout. He exhibited a general state of confusion throughout the workout, not knowing what exercises to do and who had last draw a card. He would become quite perturbed if he thought a man was drawing out of order. @Point Break reminded him that it does not change the card that is being drawn…but @2 Step was having none of that! At one point, YHC confirmed with @2 Step that he (@2 Step) was the last to draw a card and then I drew next (since I was next to @2 Step). Then in the VERY NEXT TURN, when @Point Break went to draw (because he was next to YHC), @2 Step reversed his decision and said that he @2 Step) had just drawn and it was my turn again! @King Julian provided the general mumblechatter as usual and the rest of us laughed.
