Read some backblasts and decided to bring some toys to the Colosseum for all the PAX to enjoy as a means to change it up a bit.
WARMUP: Moseyed to the loop at the front of the school where gear stations were set-up. Performed some SSH and a few burpees and then made sure PAX understood the exercises at each station. Explanation done, moseyed around to the back half of the loop, performed some SSH and a few burpees, explained the format, then we started to work.
THE THANG:
Partner Up. Partner 1 attends a station and performs the exercise until Partner 2 relieves him. Partner 2 runs the half loop, but before re-entering the exercise area must complete 3 burpees.

THE THANG: Carry our big bells to the far side of the parking lot, found a box full of terrible exercises and carries such as snatches, curls, man makers and lots more.

Eventually construction workers started showing up and for our sobriety we moved to another location and finished what we started.

WARMUP:
THE THANG: 10+3 got Hived as I visited the DMZ and gave a KB lesson.
– <@U05RN7GSDLH> , <@U0904HV02BY> , and <@U05K5D10AG6> rucked it out. I believe that most of the world’s problems got solved, but as capitalists, you’ll have to pay to find out the answers.
– <@U03B9G9BXJM> came dressed for a chilly golf outing, complete with puffy jacket. Guys gave him a lot of crap, but they don’t have sensitive nipples, so they don’t get it.
– <@UGU3XR5RP> was in typical form. That means it was a non-stop stream of working hard at both the exercises and giving me a hard time.
– <@U087NCUTMPT> has HCed to bringing an additional 50 lb KB to the Hive from now on for those who are interested. So… no one.
– <@U19FA0Q8Z> is a grown-ass man. NOT a grown ass-man. Hyphens matter.
– <@UGYDCTRST> gave me a normal fist bump at the end, and after checking his temp (rectally, of course) to make sure he wasn’t ill, he recognized where he went off the rails and gave me the normal Slash treatment.
– <@U5DBBKTE0> was the standard and helped us with our form. That was the focus this morning, doing the right things the right way. When that’s the theme, he’s the go to.
– <@U0A25GTDDEJ> has his foot on the accelerator. But he’s not redlining yet. He wins the Helmet award for my favorite guy that had his VQ this week at Ring of Badgers (Fire).
– <@U06P97NSX17> was the sole representative from the Gaggle of Degenerates. Especially since the King of the Degenerates (<@USBP08L1G>) was occupied elsewhere.
– <@U5DKASDQU> was the WarDaddy today (see previous bullet as to why). On a side note, his new retirement gig is developing lesson plans for a new Minnesota Quality Learing Center franchise he’s opening on the WestSide.
This report is true and is able to be copied and pasted into the /slackblast by any man who wants those stats bumped up.
