  • YHC took the PAX out in Prayer

NMS:  Holy smokefest batman! …it is QUITE clear YHC is out of Kettlebell Shape!  Thanks to the PAX for permitting me the opportunity to lead and for the accountability to push it hard. YHC is thinking Bon Air could use a Kettlebell AO. Our BB title comes from the question raised after Purple Rain shared he awoke this morning with a resting HR in the 30’s. Impressive? Worrying? Well, he is indeed a hairy man but he hasn’t yet reached hibernating bear level, which Siri tells us they have a HR of about 8bpm. Keep pushing fellas! The limits of your ability are where you set them. Yours AYE! ~DTH
