Been a while since YHC led at MMM but feeling the need to swing some bells and seeing an empty spot on the calendar, gladly signed up to partake in the MMM Madness. With conditions in the low 20’s at launch time, YHC pleasantly suprised 13 other PAX said YES to the frigid conditions and ventured out to JV Washam to warm up their bells. Lots of PAX in attendance this morning that YHC doesn’t cross paths with often made it extra enjoyable. Glad to see Goat take a field trip this morning, away from his regularly attended Monday Berean and getting an extra 15 minutes sleep.

Pre-blast mentioned some light cardio and kb work and a brief lap around the parking lot would begin our warm-arama which included SSH’s, Toy Soldiers, Windmill, Long Snappers, shoulder-touch merkins and Peter Parkers. PAX would perform several rounds of the following with KettleBells: curls, shoulder pressses, right an left handed lawn mowers (rows) and KB swings. We ventured over to the playground where PAX would alternate between pull-ups and air squats (3 rounds). A brief mosey behind the school, landing in Peoples Chair, we performed air squats and 3 sets of calf raises (toes straight, pointed in and pointed out). To get a little distance in, PAX moseyed over to the other side of the school, planking on the curb and performing a brief mobility moment including the beloved downward dog to pigeon. Mosey back to starting point for more rounds of KB exercises and ending with several minutes of MARY. Recover Recover

A benefit of working out in sub freezing temps is that it provides a blast of exhilirating energy, similar to a cold plunge but without soaking in an ice bath.

Thanks to Greyhound for your leadership at this awesome AO. Appreciate the keys to MMM this morning and the opportunity to lead. A great start indeed and thankful that 13 other PAX joined in the nonsense this cold Monday morning.

Great seeing Pool Boy join us, one of the few 20-somethings in Isotope. If you haven’t heard how Pool Boy got his nickname, it’s one of the most original, salacious, and scandalous F3 namings since our own Tammy Faye got his F3 name. Rumor is Crocs came up with this but you can confirm that story . It went down something like this: Pool Boy attended Liberty University, a conserative Christian college led by Jerry Falwell. Apparently Jerry Falwell Jr’s wife had eyes for a Miami Pool Attendant named Giancarlo Granda and couldn’t resist the urge to spend “quality time” with this strikingly handsome, speedo wearing young man. He’s sort of a mix between Clooney and Cruise. It’s rumored to believe even Falwell Jr. approved of this. You can’t make this stuff up. Hit the link below to learn more about the original Pool Boy.
