THE THANG: Balls of York Joseon Dynasty Variation: PAX count off into 2 into 2 teams. Balls arrayed on either side of two 44 and 2 55 GORUCK Sand Kelttlebells set up as a Joseon Palace, PAX need to Bear Crawl 10 paces,then perform 1 burpee to make a throw, team exhausts supply of 12 balls, then at the end the count goes–1) ball inside palace–1 burpee (escalating by 1 for each additional ball, so 2 balls is 3 burpees) 2) balls outside palace, 1 merkin each, Balls on the walls, so to speak, 5 LBCs each. (Plus 15 coupon squats using assorted sand kettlebells. 2-3 rounds of this (funny I can’t remember); THEN Switch into RIGGO DRILL, BEASTQUAKE (aka “BEEFCAKE”) Variation. Timer runs out and back with a farmer carry of the 44s, calling Riggo to start (but few people did this)), exercises for the PAX while the timer farmers’ walks included Bonnie Blairs, T-merkins, Bobby Hurleys (and then segue to Shoulder Taps, Flutters, and Mountain Climbers); However, when PAX elects to go into BEASTQUAKE/BEEFCAKE mode at which time PAX do not the prescribed exercise but must do BURPEES INSTEAD, 3 whole rounds of this MARY: 50 LBCs, 20 Toy Soldiers, 40 Flutter Kicks (IC)

COT: You are good enough. F3 must be here to counter the message in guys’ heads that they are not good enough. Its not about the number of reps you can do–it is about so much more than that. But “good enough” is not “happily ever after,” it is only a start. We need you out here. SYITG!
