The Token PAX

YHC was called in from the bullpen late last night to substi-Q.  And yeah, I have a couple hundred old backblasts stored in Google Drive that I could have pulled from, but I also have this nice sack of freshly minted exercise tokens that we can...

A Completely Reasonable Beatdown

TIME WASTERS. The PAX whined so we wasted a few minutes doing SSHs, Whirlies, Michael Phelps, and Abe Vigodas.  What a freaking waste.  We probably could have finished another entire round of real exercises if we hadn’t spent time on these...

Spicoli’s Discounted Lamb Chop

TIME WASTERS. It’s a waste of time to even include this in a backblast.   BEATDOWN. Add a round each time through the circuit.  At the end of each circuit, run to the end of the coal pit and do 25 Mountain Climbers.   7 360° BURPEES 14...
