Hit me, bro

Hit me, bro

AYE. 21 men decided to take a hit at the Matrix Blackjack table and walked away with some jangle in their pockets. Here’s more or less what transpired:

THE THANG
Warmups – 10xSSH, Imperial Walkers, Merkins
Partner up (1 group of 3, we’ll get back to them in a second)
Round 1 – 100 Burpees – 1 partner runs a lap, other partner does exercise
Celebrate with a lap carrying your partner (flapjack as needed)
Round 2 – 200 Jump Squats
Another celebration lap of partner carries
Round 3 – 300 Merkins
Round 4 – 400 Monkey Humpers
Round 5 – 500 LBCs
Round 6 – Partner relay race – 1 lap each AYG
Interspersed throughout were Planks, Mary, etc.
Close out with the sacred blessing – 10 burpees OYO

YE OLDE MOLESKINE
1. I did a similar workout a few months ago with an FNG and the dude almost puked. This time wasn’t quite as hard and I couldn’t figure out why until later. Last time, I called all 5 rounds at once so it was non-stop smokefest. This time, I called each round individually with Plank and Mary in between. Made it way easier. Next time, we’re going back to non-stop.

2. The 3 Stooges. At one point, YHC was rounding the bend and saw 3 PAX standing and chatting. What? Turns out that the group of 3, ever after referred to as the 3 Stooges, decided to tackle the 2 man challenge with 3 men without making the requisite adjustments to the scope. I guess F3 is you against you but…come on!

3. Strong showing from FNG Mile High. He did not puke. He did not faint. But he did get a nickname that might cause some questions now that Colorado, the Mile High State, allows for legal consumption of the Herby Herb.

4. TClaps to PopTart for not harassing me the night before about remembering to Q. But in his defense, I had forgotten. Next time I’ll be looking for a crescendo of LinkedIn messages, tweets, Text messages, phone calls, Facebook messages, knocks on my door, etc.
