The Nekked Man Moleskin

  • Mr Hand keeps breaking bands.   I am out of resistance bands until Santa comes
  • Carpetbagger locks his car because he has tacos stored in the truck
  • Camelback is THEE best form on ropes in F3.   I will accept no arguments. 
  • Swanson thought we were at a parks and rec meeting and sometimes started exercises late. 
  • Burning Bush was in great form after his 50th Birthday celebration yesterday
  • Crocs reminds of a timid Jolly Roger with some fine mumblechatter
  • YHC loved the effort.  It was a fulfilling workout with a little bit of everything.   The weighted lunges were a by-atch to start with and the workout went downhill from there. 
  • Only Carpet Bagger had tacos…because he prepared. Until Swanson reached across the styrofoam border and borrowed a taco. 
  • Beers were good. Be careful what you say.   Pretty much everything is a micro-agression… Thanks California   Diversity and Harrasment education!
