A Solid Pax of 21 gathered in the lot totting Bells of various shapes and sizes. When the clock struck 5:30 they were disclaimed and got down to business. Circle up in Parking Lot for Warm Up. Tight circle for COP was an attempt to avoid further damage to the soggy grounds and to keep the PAX Dry. The later was foiled when the sky opened up during the Chest Press.

It was a reasonably warm morning with a minute chance of rain, seemed a perfect day for doubles with some wooden bench work mixed in. Lucky for our LIFO HighTide, our warmup began right in the parking lot as he rolled in somewhere between SSH and Merkins. Plan today was to get warmed up properly – thanks to swings, cleans and snatches then roll right into double bell work. Nothing makes your current bell feel lighter than working out with two bells. Had to audible several times along the way this morning, so thanks for sticking with me. The P1 run was too long for P2 to be doing doubles, so we shortened that and reduced the rounds from 3 to 2 in order to get through the majority of the weinke. The sky opened up just in time for the double chest press – nothing like getting a face full of water while pressing kettlebells precariously above your face. At one point, someone asked if anyone had ever drown while participating in F3. Jury is out on that, but the rain did not stop the pax from wielding some heavy metal. In light of the slippery conditions, we opted for step ups in place of jump ups on the wooden benches. Maybe next time. Glad to have Hairband back from IR. Shout out to Drop Thrill and Freedom who were both getting after it this morning and for Squid for consistently posting just weeks after his first post.
Hope everyone enjoyed themselves out there this morning and thanks again for the opportunity to Q Skunkworks (the site that has something for everyone).
Poot, Sexy Back, Britney are all good.
While I have seen a few renames they were brought up by someone else.
Wasn’t “Assless Chaps” the example of don’t rename yourself or else?
Clippie isn’t even that bad. Maybe since he tried to name himself Mountain Boy we just call him Brokeback Mountain.
