The bell tolled and 27 PAX including 1 FNG joined YHC for his first visit to The Matrix.  YHC wanted to make it memorable by planning in some Monkey Humpers and animal circuits.  Judging by the animal noises heard from some of the PAX during the workout, it seems to have been a success.    

 COP

– SSH x 30

– IW x 30

– Merkin / Peter Parkers x 10

– Monkey Humpers x 20

Both rounds of animal crawls were #crowdpleasers

– Group 2: concrete block rows x 10

– Group 3: dips x 20

– Freddy Mercury x 20

– Dive bomber merkins x 10

#shoulderssmoked – let’s do something else

 

Go to sidewalk and find partner from before

– Partner 1: LBC, Partner 2: run 100 yards and back, flapjack

– Partner 1: Rosalita, Partner 2: run 100 yards and back, flapjack

 

Cooled it down with a mosey through the field to the far parking lot corner

– Plank-o-rama to catch breath and get everyone in line

– Recover to runner’s stance for a jail break back to the cars (Unfair lived up to the name once again)

– LBC “move when called” ad-libbed by Tiger Rag at the finish to take us out

 

COT

 

The Naked Moleskin:

Tiger Rag mentioned as we lined up for the 100 yard runs that today’s beat down was probably payback for giving YHC the nickname of a Hornets cheerleader.  Perhaps he was right, but judging by the grins in the COT, I think it is just what the PAX needed to start the week off right.  There was a strong effort out there by all.  Aye!

About half way through the workout during the dolly’s, Joker drove by honking his horn at us.  I am not sure why he was not out there with us this morning, but it was probably a good reason if he had the stones to call attention to his absence… 

FNG Big Gulp showed some strong effort out there today and it was great to have him in the PAX.  We hope to see you in the gloom again soon! 

During the runs, Unfair lived up to his name again.  I think Bulldog has some competition out there now.  Better take it up a notch brother to show the young whippersnapper how it’s done…  Fletch (I think as YHC was far back in the pack) actually gave Unfair a run for his money in the jail break though.  Nice!

It was another great workout with a strong group of men.  Thanks for the opportunity to take the helm today at The Matrix.
