10 men planted the shovel flag at the early edition of #TheMainThang to see what all the Twitter #mumblechatter was about. YHC promised a #HootieStyle #beatdown – which entails a #CircuitOSuck. Pretty sure the PAX got what they came for #truthinadvertising
The Thang:
Before YHC could circle up the group I was under fire for my cool new socks. Someone asked if I had on shin guards. As a matter of fact I do and you’re about to find out why……
Warmup
Ssh x30 – Houdini wasted no time with his #mumblechatter as he mocked YHC’s predictability (starting with SSH).
Merkins x15
IW x20
Oblique lbcs x20
Burpee boxjumps x10 #don’tbustAshin
Circuit O suck (running around the Peace Center counter-clockwise)
20 Squat jumps at the loading dock
20 wall muscle ups on the parking lot wall
Plank walk down amphitheater stage
10 burpee boxjumps on benches by the shovel flags
Repeato x3
Needless to say there wasn’t much #mumblechatter after round 1, let alone 2 and 3
As YHC was finishing the muscle ups on round 1 I felt someone behind me. Was this a reverse Billy Zane and an FNG was trying to join us? Turns out it was @WonderCat. He said “the 0530 group started early”. Of course I informed him he just joined the #EarlyEdition #betterlatethannever

Somewhere during phase 2 of the partner work, @MrWinslow was showing @Spongbob the proper rear mount er….way to stretch the lower back. #TooMuchInformation #WishIDidn’tSeeThat

Naked Moleskin:
– YHC promised a beatdown (via Twitter) and the feedback would indicate I was successful

– Lot’s of references to the movie #Stepbrother

Iceman
The Struggle was real…
We always talk about how we need to help each other out with form. Mr. Winslow helps me get my hips up for downward dog and the whole world has to laugh at it? Geez…can’t win for trying.
That workout has to make another appearance. It was horrible, but for the BETTER.
