10 PAX, including one FNG, met at the assigned place and time, ready to start the holiday weekend in good form. With boom box playing “classic rock workout,” it was game on.
Warm up: SSH x 20, Imperial Walkers x 20, Good mornings x 20
The Thing: PAX take turns picking a card, number on card tied to exercise below. Number on card x 3 is number of exercises, joker is PAX choice, a few face cards thrown in, means we take a run around the parking lot.
- (Ace) Carolina dry docks
- Burpees
- Jumping lunges
- Wide grip merkins
- Peter Parkers
- Star jumps
- American Hammer
- Quick feet
- Plank jacks
- Prisoner Squats
We went around 3X for 30 sets of exercises. Why did it seem like there were more then 4 #2 cards? the 8 never appeared
A few minutes remaining, partner up on basketball court, one partner runs suicides while other does merkins, continue until as a team reach 76 merkins. Quick round of Mary, box cutters x 20 and round of 6 inch leg holds for 10 seconds each. That’s a wrap.

Announcements, schedule changes for 4th of July tomorrow, you already know about that. Next Saturday a one off workout at BO location in Downtown Cary followed by breakfast and talk led by a Wounded Warrior, see Banjo and MaBell if interested.
Prayer requests: for MaBell’s friends daughter Ana and her family as doctors struggle with diagnosis, Callahan for next step in job search, Banjo for daughter traveling back from mission work today and 90210’s brother, now in his 3rd month in Afghanistan, that he and all our military here and overseas stay safe. For the 4th its worth noting that we as American’s have many blessings and one is our dedicated men and women in uniform.
A safe 4th to all, always a pleasure to lead PAX in our Cary contingent! Hope to see you back soon Refinery.
