***I realized last night that I hadn't sent out the backblast for last Saturday. Arrggh!! Here she is.

15x curls
15x shoulder presses
***These new blocks are definitely larger and a little awkward to carry. I assumed they were heavier, but after inspection, material property considerations, and debate over the carrying capacity of a laden swallow, I think they are really the same mass as our previous blocks. Maybe after they absorb water, they will be heavier? We debate whether the F3Kitty would pay for a scale to leave at the playground, but the motion does not pass. So, they are dimensionally larger, but they are not demonstrably heavier. A good addition that may allow more farmer's carrying/finger grip testing though, for sure.
Meat Grinder:
#1: hanging rows, calf raisers, move stack of 5 largest blocks across back playground

***high marks to Shirley for his precision stacking

3 LBH runs + 30 burpees.
mix 'n match when/where you do the burpees

*** Dandelion takes us down memory lane by parking in the pine straw for Mary. Ahhh, the good ol' days. My bony/lean back and tailbone are grateful.
20x Freddy Mercuries
10x box cutters (5/side)?
*** QFail4: 5/side…eh, normally we do 10/side…no drugs on board, I promise…geesh
15x low dollies

moleskine:
– sprinkled within workout for chronological context
– T-claps to Shredder for hiding the fact that he's going to be a new dad sometime in the next week. Super excited for him and his family.
– T-claps to Dandelion. Due to his injury, he spent most of the day doing push/pull/abs. Fortunately, he re-joined us for Mary, because we hadn't already seen him do 30MOM.
Good times fellas.
Honored that you let me lead.
