Moleskin:

Solid crew out this morning getting after it, and I am definitely getting more and more sore as I write this. Focus of this workout was to swing/lift a lot of weight with no real breaks, no Mary, and no miles logged. Having the gangster rap absolutely helped everyone get through the workout. I think it’s safe to say my music selection was a first for Meathead (and quite possibly a last). YHC tried to throw a few new moves in today to keep things fresh, with the sprinter’s stance swings and the swing/catch/squat/press move. Those definitely brought the pain. Hopefully everyone got their money’s worth today.

Rachel is always crushing the workouts, running, boot-camps, bells, you name it.

High Tide put in some extra work early with a pre-run and was so kind to let YHC borrow one of his 78 other KBs.

Blazing Saddles was un-phased by the workout. More burpees for you next time to start.

Good to see Prohibition at Meathead, who unquestionably enjoyed the music.

Soul Glow was putting in some hard work this morning from start to finish.

Arena is a Meathead staple and it shows.

Voodoo couldn’t possibly swing a bigger bell, keep it up!

YHC really appreciates Voodoo and Witch Doctor asking me to lead such a stellar crew.

Thanks to Arena for the takeout.
