6 men toed the line at the Matrix for Uncle Leo’s Least Favorites. Today we brought together 3 of my least favorite exercises paired with some running to keep everyone happy and O2 deprived.

COT
Moleskin:
1) Thin crowd today, YHC is not taking it personally.
2) The lunge warm up seemed to catch everyone off guard. Sound off in the comments if it was worthwhile or not
3) Lots of mumble chatter coming from Turkey Leg and Binary during round 1. Not sure what was discussed but it stopped when the burpees started.
4) Even after trying to slow him down with a bear crawl, Turkey Leg blew us all away in the last sprint to the lot
