So truth be told I’ve been fartsacking non-stop lately. Rewind a few weeks to a Samson gone by when the gathered PAX agreed to each Q in exchange for burpee mercy. MQ Force even made it easy by signing us all up. Fast forward back to now… my day of reckoning. I needed that push, thank you for “Forcing me” out of my refuge… See what I did there?

5:25 roll into the lot, it’s just Flo and the hounds, but slowly they trickle in.

We moseyed up the lot zig zagging and backtracking, but finally making it to the top.

I had a plan, but looking at it on paper it was a little too ambitious. So I decided on Plan “B” a replay of Samson’s greatest hits.

Warmup:

Circled up for a classic Hasselhoff warm-0-rama. Traditional exercises with alternating escalating burpees. This was the standard warmup for Samson Suicide days…

The Thang:

Speaking of SS, yes technically it’s the first Thursday of the month, but the hell with it… I called it. Grab a block for Classic SS. The PAX was none too pleased. Fortunately I capped it at two rounds. 

The next phase was a little pigskin… errr foamskin. I smuggled a NERF in my hoodie, so we could hit the gridiron in honor of Limberger. We split up three on three (YHC, SnakeEyes, Flo vs The Force, TammyFaye Toby) we each got a possession with 5 downs. It took 5 plays, but on the last down The Force connected deep to Toby in the end zone ala Montana/Young to Rice. Switching sides the D from Force, TF and Toby was lights out. Game Over….

For the last phase we squeezed in another Hoff staple, the Bermuda Triangle. We did some quick block work ran down to the wall for some wallwork then, over to the road for a merkin timebomb and back to the blocks to put them back completing the triangle.

Mosey back to start.

Mary:

A quick set of LBC’s, FlutterKicks, Touch them Heels and Recover/Recover.

COT:

Announcements: Polar Bear coming up in March.
Prayers: Continued Prayer for Force’s parents as his mother continues treatment.

It was a great day to get back, shake the rust off and lead a solid PAX. Thanks for the opportunity Force. Ironically we ended up doing more burpees today than we would have way back when… 

See you in the gloom…
