Well, sometimes you just got to punt.  Being a true #HIM, Bandit double-booked his Q.  Operation Walk This Way takes precedence, I told him we would figure it out.  We did:

Tesla started us with the pledge, the walkers left, Tesla killed it with the warm-up, and we split up.  Rudolph has the con.  We walk to the circle with Frank, and work commences.

I. 11’s with crawls – bottom of the steps, 1 squat, bear crawl up, 10 merkins.  Come down however you want, 2 squats, 9 Merkins, etc.

II. Pain stations – we made 6 stations, but we did 3 sets of each, with a 10 count in-between sets.  I set the timer to 45 seconds, but key was to max-out.

Squat Thrusters with 50 lb. bar

Merkins

Pull-overs with Kettlebells

Curls with dumbells

Front shoulder raises with calf-raises

Dips

About half-time, so we I asked if they wanted to do more stations, or choose the mystery box.  They chose.  Poorly:

III. The Test – shorter time, as we made 3 groups of 2.  Less rest, so we did half the time.  Great work by all, it really did turn out to just be 7 minutes of continuous Burpees.  I got gassed and called for a 1 minute break at the conclusion.  Quickly pivoted to LBC’s for awhile, then recover.

IV. Follow the Leader:  single file line, follow me, bear crawl up and across, stop for 10 squats, crab walk across to dips, lunge walk to something….grab the gear and head off to await Tesla gang.  He worked us for a good 5 minutes, bells.

Announcements – Tesla gave an account of a friend in need, and trust me, it was a hell of a story.  Tough to go through, but as men that’s what we do, we step up with the hard stuff.

MOLESKIN – we had 3 for Bootcamp, 6 for Painlab, and 5 for Walking Crew.  This has to be a new thing in F3 Nation, 3 different varieties of AO at the same place, and it’s exciting.  Bandit doesn’t owe anyone anything, a true #HIM for he and Linus starting the new AO.  Go get it boys, always a pleasure to serve.  ***Our FNG “Totaled” says the word SIX as SEX.  Let that sink in.
