It’s December, so that means Christmas is around the corner. To get the guys in the Christmas spirit, YHC led the obligatory 12 days of Christmas workout. It was a beautiful night at Midoriyama. We saw enough deer running amuck that Santa could pull his sleigh through the triad region (Lowell, Ranlo and Smyre) on dry ground with no problem at all.

We performed a quick warmup and moseyed to the parking lot on the other side of the turd shack. Q forgot the pledge, (BIG Q fail) but we got it at the end of the workout. Once we got there, Santa Q had written the 12 days of Christmas on the asphalt for all the PAX to see. We formed a semi circle around the instructions and got to work. It went like this:

  • 1 – 8 Count Bodybuilder
  • 2 – Hand Release Merkins
  • 3 – Reverse Crunches
  • 4 – CDD’s
  • 5 – Burpees
  • 6 – Big Boys
  • 7 – Low Slow Squats
  • 8 – Werkins
  • 9 – Leg Lifts
  • 10 – Mike Tysons (a lot of protests on this one)
  • 11 – LBC’s IC
  • 12 – SSH IC

A certain grinchy PAX complained due to the “jacked up” exercises called and lack of music while performing the workout. YHC doesn’t believe this was a Q fail, just lack of Christmas spirit on behalf of the Grinch.

We had enough time to perform some dirty 11’s. Exercises called were Tiger Squats and Perfect Form Merkins (with a Burpee in the middle).

Back to the flag with just a few seconds remaining, so YHC called time. We got the Pledge in and got the COT.
