Fitness. Fellowship. Faith.Intro: The PAX challenged YHC to bring a ballbuster workout to Faultline, and even partially designed said ballbuster. Hopefully YHC delivered.
Disclaimer: No FNG’s, but a disclaimer was given anyway. The disclaimer is a good reminder that ultimately, we are all responsible for our own safety.
Warmup: Arm Circles, World’s Greatest Stretch, Carolina Dry Docks
Thang: Each PAX selected a log to solo carry, and moved out toward Jingles Hill for a round of 7’s. Realizing that our time was already running short, YHC called an audible and started the 7’s a few blocks early. The 7’s consisted of 6 squat/thrust/raises (with log, squat, then OHP as you standup, then a calf raise), then run to the next block with the log, then 1 curl/merkin (curl the log, then drop down for a merkin). Repeat until the PAX reach 1 squat/thrust/raise and 6 curl/merkins.
At the cage, engage in a photo op of a possible future exercise – the pole merkin. Thank you Old Flame for the idea, and Wolverine for actually trying it.
Stow logs.
Mary: Dying cockroach x20 (IC), 100’s (IC)

Moleskin: This morning’s workout was hard, but isn’t that why we roll out of our warm beds at 0400? If it’s easy, I’m not getting stronger or better, so why bother? So I can brag at the office that I worked-out this morning? Nah. We started with 12, and with some encouragement and F3 brothers beside us, we ended with 12. Good job, men.
