It was all about the chest and bi’s for the Kevlar workout today. The pre tweet mentioned showing off the guns and only YHC and Runstopper were brave enough to participate. The rest of the pax were soon wishing they’d left the sleeves at home as they got swolled up real quick in the circle of pain. The silver bell was certainly a doozie to curl when it came time as was Big League Chew’s mammoth 53 pounder. As we headed out of the COP Runstopper pulled a Semi Gloss and left the shirt behind but thankfully Donkey King left his on!
Kotters to Cottonmouth for taking the time to post after all of his time spent on the golf outing. He was certainly feeling it on the burpee hill combo – as were the rest of us.
Switched things up today by hitting the playground to knock out a few pull-ups now that we have some daylight which worked well. Welcome to FNG Doodles named after the Chic Fil A cow!
All in all a good workout which should make sure that we are all pumped for the pool this weekend.
Enjoy time with your family and friends this Memorial Day weekend.
