This morning, 9 fellas braved the cold rain for a Posh and Italian Job beatdown.

We started the morning with a mosey to a dank, dark field. Though we couldn’t s see our brothers, we knew we all suffered together. Posh lead us in a Pax choice warm-up consisting of:

• 30 SSH – Posh
• 25 Merkins – Posh
• 25 Morroccan Night Clubs (forward and reverse) – Italian Job
• 15 Bombjacks – Twister
• 50 Calf Raises – Mayham
• 25 Burpees – Padre
• 15 Maktar Jais – Red Eye
• 50 SSH – Pusher
• 25 Plankjacks – Burgundy
• And others…that I have conveniently forgotten

Posh then rolled out a progressive pain station of four corners. First three stations consisted of 10 merkins. Repeat.

Next we added 3 stations of 10 merkins and 15 mountain climbers. Repeat.

Then we added 3 stations of 10 merkins, 15 mountain climbers, and 20 squats. Repeat. Finish with planks. Posh wanted more running, since he is practically Kenyan, but his time was up. Hand off to Italian Job.

As if our shoulders weren’t toast enough, we added partner merkins (100 total), 200 squats, and 300 LBCs. While one partner exercised, his partner ran the length of the field and backpedaled back.

Next station was 25 dips and 25 derkins on the bleachers. 10 count. Repeat.

Mosey and circle up.

Italian Job tried a new dealer’s choice workout called Plank, Plank, Goose. The leader hopped around the pax in plank position. Where he stopped, the next guy took over and called the exercise of their choice. It failed miserably. We worked out, but it looked much better on paper than the product on the field… much like a Mike Shula offensive gameplan. The Pax chose the following exercises:

• Merkins
• Calf raises
• SSH
• Imperial Night Clubs (Twister original)
• Reverse Burpee (Burgundy original)
• Jane Fonda Leg Raises (Red Eye)
• And others…that I have conveniently forgotten

We looked ridiculous. Luckily there weren’t any onlookers or FNGs because we looked like a Richard Simmons workout video coupled with Rockettes Can Can Dancing. It may have looked crazy, but we had fun and finished strong with 20 Seal Team Situps.

Closed with a COT and praises and prayers. Continue to lift up Peach with his Guatemalan mission trip. Remember the Joe Davis Run 1/15/15 to raise funds for substance abuse services in York County. Also, we will have a Thanksgiving workout at Springfield Elementary. Keep an eye on the weekly email for details.
