10 pax came for a beatdown at Arnie's Army this morning.  6 of the pax – Auto, Big Montana, DonHo, Gypsy, Hoodie, and YHC – also ran a 4 mile Auto-led Standard around Birkdale in order to maximize the sweat factor.

MOLESKIN:

  • YHC usually tries to throw in at least one new exercise during each Q.  Admittedly, some are throw-aways, but man, the pax really don't like new exercises.  The pax also grumbled about all of the squats / lower body exercises, which are apparently going to ruin them for Gaga tomorrow.  And think I heard some complaints about the shoulder work as well.  I think Mr. Palmer would have disapproved of all the complaining at his namesake AO.  It was more like Sergio Garcia's Army.
  • On the other hand, the pax once again scoffed at the Moroccan Nightclubs, calling them half-assed arm circles, wondering what good they did for anyone, etc.  As usual, by rep 40, the pax had had enough.
  • All kidding aside, solid work by the pax on a muggy morning.  YHC switched to shirt #2 after the Standard, and it was already soaking wet by the middle of the mini Murph.  The pax pushed through the soupy conditions and knocked it out today.
  • Hurley must have gotten a good night's sleep, because he came firing out of the gate, and BoarHog had to reel him in.  Fortunately he was more subdued by the time YHC called for the block swings, and there were no incidents.  The pax said it was because YHC had "bored him" by that point with all of the Moroccan Nightclubs, etc.  Quite a bit of mumblechatter this morning for only 10 pax.
  • Thanks to Auto for asking YHC for a Q several months back.  Always honored to be able to lead the pax at what I'd consider my original and home AO.  And thanks as always to Auto and Eeyore for giving the gift of F3 to YHC in June 2016.  It's been a blessing.

Aye,

TC
