The Thang:

YHC discussed the need for partners in our lives.  Find a mentor in life, hold each other accountable, be there to pick them up when they fall or need help, trust in someone else.  In that spirit the instructions were to partner up.  Size does indeed matter as they will be your partner for the entire beatdown.

Fireman carry to first painstation- 100 yrds

Partner set:

Partner 1 in plank position; Partner 2 using P1 as bench.

Merkins: 10

Derkins 10

Dips: 10

Ski Moguls 10

Flapjack.  Rinse/Repeat

Partner run to next pain station-(old skool Three Legged Race style)- 200 yrds.  Communication and coordination key here.  Next time- We will line up and race to next station instead of mosey

Partner Steps ups- 15 each side- this took a little getting used to.

Partner Squats- shoulder to shoulder with partner. 30 squats in cadence with PAX.  This pain station was directly behind food delivery truck which allowed the delivery driver an opportunity to gaze and wonder why 16 men were squatting in choreographic harmony.  Lots of mumble chatter and laughs here as Package concluded we all looked like the ambiguously gay duo (SNL)- “not that that there is anything wrong with that…”(Seinfeld)

Partner Merkins- P1- P2 alternate ascending count of Merkins to 10.  Total Individual Count: 55 merkins each.  Smoked.  Lots of great partner encouragement here to finish and get through.

Fireman carry to next pain station 100 yards

P1 Plank; P2 bunny hops back and forth over partner X 20.

Flapjack.  Rinse/Repeat

Three legged run to next Painstation- 50 yards.

P1 Wall sit; P2 Balls to Wall- 30 seconds

Flapjack. Rinse Repeat

Jailbreak to shovel flag.  Lots of woofing here.  Everyone pretty much toast.  Time for Mary.

Great workout by the PAX this morning.  Wanted to switch it up a bit and by relying on your partner, made a tough workout fun and challenging.  Remember that in life as in our fitness, partner up, find a mentor and  hold someone/be held accountable!
