COT
MOLESKINE
- That’s the way it’s spelled, by the way–with the ending E. Without the E all you have is the epidermis of a small, rodent-like mammal.
- We traveled no more than 100 yards total but got after it pretty good nonetheless. That’s the 0.05 way.
- Always a treat to observe the pax reactions to the environment. Stone Cold emerged as a clown-shoed ninja, Busch went with the menacing hoodie and Ribeye, Site FNG (Fresh Meathead?) decides vibrams are a good idea.
- Meathead offers what few other workouts can, or do: double and heavy bell work. Everyone swinging at least double 35’s, lots of 2x 40-45’s and even Busch working in a number of sets at 2x 60’s. Strong fixes about everything and Meathead will make you strong.
- Beta run on the new implement, the prowler. Didn’t work it in much today but you’ll be seeing it soon at a workout near you. It’s nasty.
