12 convicts escaped The Big House on a ladder constructed of pain on a brisk Monday morning. Cheddar upped the ante by dressing as an orange traffic cone.

Moleskin
- Welcome FNG’s Hooker (Mike) and AMTRAK (Artie)! Hooker lives just to the West of the AO and came to investigate the sounds and smells that have been waking him up on Mondays. AMTRAK was trying to figure out what was worse, his first workout in years or being Mr. Bean’s brother-in-law. Should have named that guy Raw Deal. Keep posting fellas!
- Cheddar, apparently concerned for our safety, arrived to the workout dressed as an orange traffic cone. Thank you Cheddar for your concern but this may be overkill as The Big House is already the safest AO in all of F3.
- Outback didn’t get a chance to pick an exercise, but still left his mark with some loooong flexed-pose 10-counts and the naming of FNG Hooker. He also invented the Imperial Walker Shuffle when Mr. Bean released whatever died inside of him onto the world.
- Near-future VQ Tool Bag had a “creative” count on his first attempt at Imperial Walkers but figured it out and nailed his subsequent attempts. Tool Bag, YHC will hunt you down for that VQ, which will most likely be the most entertaining workout of the year.
- Udder saved the ladder after YHC prematurely tried to move-on to the next station after Bean’s burpees. #hero
- Soft Pretzel saved YHC from any legal liability by correcting YHC’s “modify at your own risk” to “modify as necessary”. Thanks for lookin out, Softie.
- Dumpster Fire called his favorite exercise (Box Cutters) and then blew everyone’s mind by reversing the direction halfway through. #crafty
- Recent FNG’s Private Benjamin and Patient Zero added solid rungs to the ladder. #rungupson
- Thanks to my man Mario for giving me the idea for a ladder workout. #genius #dontblameme
- As always, thanks for the opportunity to lead. Great to see this AO pulling FNG’s and getting good numbers. T-claps to Dumpster Fire and Cheddar for their leadership.
