Thought this workout up right before the workout with assist from the F3 Nation Exicon page so it was really pulled out of my arse.  Turned out to be pretty taxing on the arms.   The PAX took it in stride with smiles (thank you sir, may I have another!).  The only regret was that Masterload’s 2.0s were not there to enjoy the festivities.  I was really thinking of breaking out the Batann Death March if they were there.  Saving it for another day.
