Moleskin:
- The goal today was full body trauma. With all the repeatos, what was lacking in creativity was made up for in pain.
- There was some heckling at the beginning of the 4 point toe touch…YHC heard something about Dancing With the Stars…but about 20 seconds into each minute, the mumble chatter stopped and the groans began. Feel the burn.
- There is nothing fun about the Jump Squat, especially when you touch the sides of your shoes…and do 60 of them within about 8 minutes.
- Closing out the COP circuit with Merkin Jacks seemed like a good idea during Q planning…but it proved very unsavory in actual practice.
- Groiners and Exploding Merkins, while not traditional Mary, served to be crowd pleasers.
- T-claps to Philmont…4 posts this week. Way to push through. We all hear you!
- Happy Birthday to Deacon…celebrating with a downPAINment!

- Area51 pool party at Candlewyck neighborhood pool tomorrow night – 6pm to 9pm.
- Contact Chelms for a great opportunity to tutor and mentor students…F3 making a difference.
- EH a buddy for a Saturday workout.
