19 PAX showed up at Kevlar this morning and found out that we would be hauling logs around the grounds for the first 30 mins. It was a risk to bring some new gear as apparently stupid decisions can get you banned from Q’ing (a la Lex Luthor per Horsehead) but not as risky as Cotton Tail going commando during the pre-workout kettle bell swings. He has a reputation to uphold and he put it all on the line this morning. “Out of clean underwear” was his excuse. Mmmmkay.
Horsehead led the pre-workout kettle bells with about 5 others (Bush, Cotton Tail, Bananas, Young Love) – we were going strong until Tiger Rag rolled up in his new orange Jeep which was quickly nicknamed “Pumpkin”. Due to his doors being off he was able to join the workout rather quickly. “It’s a Jeep Thing”.
Warmup
Grab a log from the truck. I put in some XL ones in there for Tiger Rag and Bananas and I think they accepted the challenge. The logs ranged from 10-25 lbs and the ones in the back were about 35. What, you don’t weigh your logs?
Jog down to parking lot – SSH, Low Slow Squat (with log), merkins, shoulder press

One more I can’t remember….
ALL RUN BACK TO TRACK AND DROP OFF LOGS
At The Track
Parter bear crawls around the track. Parter 1 bear crawls and Partner 2 runs track and catches them then flap jacks. Once I saw that humans can’t bear crawl more than 25 yards without giving up and reverted to lunge walking I nixed it and we circled up.
We finished up with the hostage which Bananas felt was more of a ladies workout. Full disclosure: It is. Some various abdomen work started until Horsehead pulled a Q-jack and thought it best to end with Eternal Flame, endless pushup, or whatever it’s called.
Good work men – pleasure leading today.
