The Somewhat Suck – PAX split up into the four corners of the parking lot. The 5th PAX member grabbed the 30lb ruck sack YHC brought. Starting from one corner, The rucker runs to the next corner and switches with the next guy. This kept repeating with each PAX switching and running. The PAX worked on the following exerices while waiting to switch: Goblet Squats, Swings, Halos, Cleans. Rinse and Repeat till everyone does each exercise twice.
Four Corners – 50 Rows, 50 Goblet Squats, 50 Merkins, 50 Sit + Press

The 4th F was coming out over and over this morning. Mainly thanks to Yard Sale who we pretty sure sh** his shorts several times.
Good to have Mud Face with us this morning. He mentioned he has been rucking and use Eric (100lb weight bag) a lot lately. Bulkhead said if he brought Eric not Wednesday we would put him to use
Also Bulkhead has asked (for future Q’s) that we spend the last 5 minutes of a workout for stretching. YHC will leave that up to whoever is Qing if they want to.

Success! YHC attempt this workout back in November which was a fail. This was due to YHC placing the cards at the locations, spreading out to far, and being to dark. YHC learned and modified this time with amazing results
Congrats to Team Bone Thugs on the win and hope you enjoy the beer.
YHC didn’t get to hear all the stories but it seemed overall everyone enjoy it.
T-Claps to YHC teammates Choppa who beast mood that Coupon and Bodo’s with the fastest coupon bear crawl ever!
