Skunk in a Bag

The Skunk of Many Stripes added another today. Diamondhead? Stole it. Combine? Unrepentant ripoff. CORE? Skunkified it. Today, we ripped a page from the WIB. You want to know why Skunk Works is on a Tuesday? Because so is the WIB.

Chatter index today registered at 0.0. The only words from the gloom were, “You should have preblasted this.” Aye, but no one would have come.
If you were so inclined today (and did the exercises as listed), you completed: 230 burpees, 210 2-handed swings, 80 goblet squats, and 80 Russian twists. Sadly we didn’t have time for the finishing lap back around the church, leaving the workout asymmetric. #Bothersome.
Bananas is a head locking machine. Only three or four weeks removed from his first post and he’s EHd 5 or 6 guys so far, maybe more. He had so many in the #ClownCar today that one had to ride in the hatch.
A couple of words to the two FNGs today, Dickies and Geraldo: It’s understandable if you never talk to Bananas again. Find forgiveness in your heart; he didn’t know what he was subjecting you to. The good news is (when you can move again) it will become easier as you get stronger. #IceBath. #Ibuprofen
T-Claps to Wanker [not drinking that Bulldog [sic] Kool-Aid anymore…deal with it]. One tough sum-beech and a burpee beast. One of very few who made it all the way through unmodified. Even had to give him an extra ration of burpees to keep him busy. #shortguyburpeeadvantage
Hats off to everyone for sticking with it, modified or not. The WIB-style format is a “you against you” test of mental and physical toughness. T-Claps.

Not sure what smelled worse, the skunk or the bag. Either way, a major downPAINment.

Mall Cop

Total Beatdown! Teeth kicked-In, borrowed or not that was tuff! I don’t want to see another burpee this week. I’m with you though, we needed to have gotten in the final lap around the campus.

T-Claps TR.

Bulldog

You know it’s a hard one when your legs give out on you getting out of the car and just holding a phone to your ear causes your shoulders to cramp!
If any of the FNG’s show up to another workout after that one they have some big old bollocks!
Great stuff TR.

Cheese Curd

Not sure I ever want a sunk in the bag again! I am not sure you worked in enough burpies. Congrad’s to anyone who was able to follow along, I just did somthing until I was tired, then burpies. To the FNG’s…yes, that was tough! Great lead TR!

Hitman

that is an asinine workout

Byron

Did you have any grown men cry? I mean actual weeping with tears, because that is ridiculous.

Well done, TR.

I think that Matlock was the smartest one of all showing up at 6:03!

Hops

Au contraire Bulldog…those of us who fartsacked were the smartest this morning! Truthfully – sorry I missed the painfest. See you guys at DV tomorrow!

12:30 and my arms are still shaking and 60 ounces of water has not been enough. That skunk was serious. Pretty sure both FNGs will not be making any return appearances.
