I am missing someone who ducked out of the COT….sound off if you know who it was. On the backdrop of a gorgeous August day, 11 PAX joined NightRanger for A NiteStick beatdown.  Estwing had asked for mercy and to avoid legs, so I gladly obliged. Roasted Shoulders, Aisle 1 please. 

As an added benefit, Mr Holland had free drinks from 2-7 an joined us as Assistant to the Q and Official Form King. To say hilarity ensued is selling the evening short…

The Nekked Man Moleskin

  • Mr Holland was full on Sargeant Hulka from Stripes with lots of encouragement to everyone and then a nice nap at the end of the workout
  • Nice to meet Deadhead and some new crew members who haven't been in a Tabata workout
  • Estwing said it was a balanced day as his morning AO was all legs and we were all upperbody
  • Pitstop and Something "attacked" the effort "with little complaint" (cough cough)
  • Camelback is filing a harrasment suit on behalf of all humped creatures due to Mr Hollands ?support?
  • Prison Break and Bush were pushing hard.  Bush was fatigued from the standard but PB was overjoyed to be out of the house and working out
  • Carpetbagger crushed the weights like hulk throwing cars around
  • Jaw expressed his shear love of jump ropes and wished more AOs used skipping for fitness (thats a lie)
  • I enjoyed the time in the workout where all mumblechatter stopped and focused work took every breath of the Pax to keep pushing
  • Jenny Joined us at Main Street Tavern and tacos
