THE THANG:
Light pole suicides with 5 Big Boys, 10 merkins and 15 Squats at each pole.

Clock It

We moseyed around the parking the got to work.

A clock was drawn and we used a deck of cards. The number or face card determined how many merkins or squats you did. i.e. pick a 6 then you did 1 Merkin at 1 then staying in plank rotate to 2 and do 2 merkins, then 3 merkins and so on until you finish wth 6 merkins. Q = 11 and K = 12. Aces were bonus 100 reps of whatever was on the card. 2 were selected and we had 100 SSH and 100 Flutters

6 = American Swings
7 = Goblet Squats
8 = Overhead Press
9 = High Pulls
10= Skull Crushers
Q = Curls
K = Man Makers

MARY: No time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: were made
