A dozen PAX were left confused and blissfully ignorant by Snuff’s preblast that an NTB beatdown was in store for this glorious Thursday morning at The Forge. YHC made it a lucky 13 and off we went at 05:30.

The Thang
- We attempted a 21-count SSH exercise where the PAX counts out loud for the first five, then completes the last 16 in silence. If everyone stopped at the same time, no penalty would be given. Single count SSH was too simple for this PAX’s IQ level. Next time we will look to complicate the rep scheme a little more to make it interesting.
- We moseyed to the amphitheater area for a grueling mix of Merkins and Raise the Roof, Jack Webb style. To spice things up, the PAX bear crawled down the burm and back up between sets of ascending reps. After reaching 10 merkins and 20 RTR we moved on to the next station.
- After a Wedding Singer 20 count we partnered up (unnecessarily) for Stairway to Seven on the amphitheater steps. Each pair did the following rep scheme from 1-7:
- WWII, Incline Merkin, Step Ups to the top of the amphitheater, Squats, Down the amphitheater. Repeato.
- Sticking with the partner theme we then ran the steps in opposite directions, performing a number of burpees each time we met up with our partner.
- With time running low we moseyed back to the flag IP style where we had just enough time remaining for one of YHC’s favorites, license plate scramble. Each PAX stands in front of their vehicle and adds up the numbers on their license plate. When their turn around the circle comes the PAX calls out an exercise of their choosing with the reps equaling their license plate number.
