It was a great morning as usual with the Men of Meathead (you guys should put out a calendar with that name for charity)! Always a great crew that is willing to do some serious work. Some weren’t very excited with just where the warm up was heading, but the real pain came once we hit the set of 10s.
The point of today was to isolate single arm movements (Bananas wrecked us with doubles at Skunworks on Tuesday) and use your heaviest bell for as long as possible and then to drop down to a lighter weight to finish whatever reps you had left for strength gains and endurance/muscle fatigue to failure. Everyone pushed hard…I think…I was in my own paincave and it was hard to see what everyone else was doing. There was almost zero chatter except when Icicle abruptly called it quits and left halfway through the workout. Not sure if he had to go somewhere, the workout was terrible, or the Q was terrible…but he was there early for Meatrunner and I’m sure Fletch, TL, and the rest of the men did a number on him on the run. Double your…1 1/2 your pleasure!
Please sign up for the Joe Davis run to support Rockthrill’s family. The race is run in honor of his brother who lost his life and all funds go to the substance abuse center that helps those struggling with addictions.
Thanks for the send off Bananas!

– Turkey Leg looked a little worried when you named the workout
-Felt a little off kilter trading places in the circle with TR, but since I parked there I had to stay close to the tailgate for emergency purposes.
– I swear you were playing Alvin and the Chipmunks at one point from those giant quarter-sized speakers.
– almost out of room temperature Muscle Milk . . . need to raid the #Banannamobile under-seat area again.
That’s a REAL bad visual on the Men of Meathead calendar… just upset my stomach in fact. But hey, if that’s what it takes to raise some money for the F3 Foundation then go for it. Just please keep those kettle bells strategically placed for a PG-13 product. I’m sure Bulldog would be happy to do the photography.
