Moleskin:
Finally a relatively balmy gloom compared to weeks past. Good to be out in a TR uniform (tshirt and shorts). Just wait a couple days on that to change. Strong effort by everyone this morning with two new twists on KB exercises. Just like I thought, the pax took to it with no reservation and killed it out there! Not so much mumble chatter to begin with during farmer carry hill work. Probably due to shock and the hamstring/shoulder burn. The KB Beast left most of the pax shaking out the exhausted forearms. At one point, Bananas and TR were socializing like soccer moms during an aerobics class. Boo hoo for your poor knees, we’re all injured somewhere! As Toby Keith says, “A ‘lil less talk, and a lot more action!” Tclaps to Sussidio for getting in a run before the beat down and to Robin Hood for getting whatever weight he could find in his car to complete the workout and finish strong! Welcome FNG “Sajack”. Thanks for coming out and hanging in there brother! I hope you all enjoy the change of pace with heavy lifting (based on your KB size) from the running. I certainly enjoyed you allowing me to lead such an insane group of men. If you need a chiropractor or physical therapist, I know a fella.
