Conditions
According to my 2003 Honda ViperCast which may be slightly outdated tech at this point, 41 degrees, very little wind off the waterway except some bad air/fumes blowing around Ringwald.
The Disclaimer
Modify if necessary. Give your best effort today. YHC has no knowledge of prior or existing conditions which may limit some movements.
Just after the disclaimer, YHC issued a challenge that each of the PAX keep someone else in mind (whether it’s another Pax who couldn’t be here today or someone else) for whom they can draw inspiration when reps get tough. (More on this later)

COT
First: The challenge YHC offered at the start of the workout was a carry over from a quick discussion at Lions Den yesterday. If there’s someone on your mind, make it a point to reach out to them as soon as possible. You never know why that thought crossed your mind, but it was for a reason or there was a purpose. Never miss an opportunity to act upon reason. They might need it.
Second: No matter where you are in life, the two things you can control each and every day are your attitude and your effort. 9 quick hitters I like to remind myself of at-random to ensure I’m on track of this daily regiment:
- Be early
- Be prepared
- Leave your comfort zone
- Positive Mindset
- Energetic
- Be coachable
- Do extra
- Push others beyond their best
- Give praise
- Thank God
BALL OF MAN
Moleskin
You can always learn alot when you put monkey humpers in the weinke. First, eye contact with your monkey is paramount. Second, if you wink at it – it doesn’t feel as awkward. Alot of that’s what she said moments in describing the movement and form.
Sometimes even offering a ride cannot beat the fartsack for your FNG. Note: Make sure you have their house key or can enter without fine or violation
Toboggans (i.e. “skully’s”, “beanies”) aren’t really great for 40+ weather; especially when you’re cracking jokes at 5:34am and the regular hits aren’t working. YHC was sweating before the warmup.
