Hair Burning Half Dozen

When I rolled into the parking lot a little early to set up, Witch Doctor was already putting in some work at the playground. Great way to deal with a little insomnia if you ask me. When the bell tolled we were a strong group of six (many of the regulars Are obviously cramming for BRR). Properly disclaimed with the free pandora playing we were on our way.

Warm up – SSHx20 ic, IWx20 ic, 20 two handed swings, diamond bell merkins x10 ic, 10 cleans each arm, stagger rt merkin on bell x 10ic, 10 squat press each side, stagger left merkin on bell x10 ic, 10 snatch each arm.

Moleskine: what we lacked in numbers this morning we more than made up for in badda$$ery. It was constant movement and lots of work today at meathead. Sweat was poring during the single bell sets and continued to intensify during the doubles. There seemed to be a few nagging injuries amongst the pax but you wouldn’t know it by the effort everyone put in. hacker was either having trouble with depth perception or was getting after it on the hairburner, constantly overshooting the finish line. Bulldog displayed some high level English math at the start of doubles- commenting that they were twice as hard as the singles. He was absolutely right- but no pain no gain. Despite a sore back for Brown and a re-entry from vacation for Gullah they were both crushing it as usual. The bulldog and witch doctor duo even put in an extra set during the double high pull, strong work gents.
Always a pleasure to lead at meathead.
