6 pax didn’t get enough Labor yesterday, so we labored a little more this morning. Here is their story:

So I’ve pulled the ‘old “it will be easy” schtick in the PB too many times. Nobody bought it. Everybody was there to get after it this morning. Jobe had a head start with an Olivia core standard. He was looking swole all over after that.

Annnnnd we launch to the decks at Birkdale.

  • Deck 1: Run up the ramp, 20 WW2s so that we’re facing the upward incline to make it a bit harder.
  • Deck 2: Run up the ramp, 10 hand release double tap (“no cheat”) merkins, run down the ramp, run up the stairs, 10 burpees, run down the stairs. REPEATO
  • Take the long way around on the greenway. Do 2X hill sprints on the hill from the greenway up to Pure Barre.
  • Deck 3: 10 Bonnie Blairs each leg, run the ramp, 10 deep squats, run down the ramp. REPEATO
  • Back to Deck 1 and REPEATO the whole circuit, with some extra WW2s at Deck 1.

Totals: Very nearly 4 miles including 16 ramps/hills, 80 WW2s, 40 no cheat merkins, 40 burpees, 40 Bonnie’s, 40 deep squats.

  • AMPM was super duper on time today. He didn’t want to come, but knows I need the accountability so he showed up anyway.
  • Jobe admitted this was “actually a pretty hard workout”. I’m happy I could surprise you.
  • Slingshot said he hadn’t done any bootcampy kind of stuff in a while, but you wouldn’t have known it by watching him work this morning.
  • Cubicle likes to do hard things and is pumped for his first IPC this Thursday.
  • I’ve been hanging out with Hollywood a bunch lately. I’ve seen him at more hard workouts than easy ones.

All PAX crushed it today. Thanks for the accountability and good job gents.
