13 of Isotope's strongest pax proved that Dragon Slayer has got that drip. Here is their story:
Lots of talk around The Standard lately yet there was only one this morning. One met The Standard for ~3 miles. Not the core standard led by some lady through a phone or a truck. There were no mats or flopping around like a seal. Just The Standard as it was meant to be.
We disclaimed and warmed up with the usual COP and then got to it. The Thang was 4 corners and is a simple yet effective beatdown. This morning included Burpees x 5 OYO, Apolo Ohno x 10 OYO, WWII situps x 15 OYO, and KB swings x 20 OYO. We pushed for 4 laps and then reconvened to catch the six and work some curls and overhead presses with a burpee timer. We pushed for another 3 laps and then reconvened for 6 minutes of Mary which included Homer to Marge, low flutters x 25 IC, low dolley x 10 IC, LBCs x 25 IC, burpees x 5 OYO, and a ~30 sec plank. Recover recover. COT.
Drippy Man Moleskin…oh there was drip but not in the way all the middle schoolers talk about it. So much drip that AM-PM saved the pax from passing out with some cold Gatorades at COT. AYE. Baller pondered that DS may not be the same without Bunyan. He's not wrong. And bring your Bam Bam out too. Popcorn and Cherrybomb led the group and enjoyed burpeeing it out as we picked up the six. Smoke, Baller and Hoodie not far behind…strong. Memo and Twilight are everywhere. Pert Plus did not get his name based on flow although that would have made more sense. Stray is on a roll and for that YHC owes. Can you retire from rucking before ever giving it a go? Asking for Enron. Slingshot pushed the core standard but didn't push the core standard or something like that. Its easy to bail from the easy path. Its why we don't do the easier thing. Its also why The Standard is the standard.
Thanks to CB for the opportunity to Q Dragon Slayer. Thanks to the LFC Men's Ministry for the EH (Email headlock in my case) and thanks to the pax for the constant encouragement and motivation. You men make each and every morning worth waking up to push our limits. That rang true this morning. Drip drip drip. Until the next time…
