The boys trickled in for a Monday morning Mammoth Balls workout, ready to sweat out the weekend fun. A light rain accompanied us, and some quick chatter before 0530 revealed that Beaver was hoping for thunder and lightning. The way he spoke about it was frightening. He claimed he wanted to get some good pictures, but I think Beaver is evolving into a warrior. Tarps were quickly peeled as we moseyed to the Octagon and the rain subdued.

Wrap it Up
Towel Pulls to Failure
(Partner up: One PAX grabs the outside of the towel and pushes down to hit triceps, while the other PAX grabs the middle of the towel and pulls up to hit biceps. Give resistance so your partner gets a good pump. Switch after failure.)
Full Benefit 10 Burpee Late Penalty
Free Style
YC is still getting used to this Q thing, so we had a few minutes to spare. Most of the guys did exercises on their own while I took the opportunity to fully recover and distract them with chatter.
Wildwood’s Return & 50 Posts
We welcomed Wildwood back after his time in Jersey visiting family. While there, he hit up three workouts at The Ward, where the guys are preparing to hike Mount Kilimanjaro. Awesome to hear his stories, and we wish them luck! Also celebrating Wildwood’s and my 50th post. Looking forward to 50 more!
