Moleskin:
-No 10 counts for this work out, that would have been a 10 count violation turnover.
-Lead a workout, volunteer to Q, you won’t regret it. See a site Q to sign up.
-The backward gorilla hops are quad burners and showed us how uncoordinated we are.
-Tclaps to the go ruck men (Yo-Yo, Utah, who else?) and MacGrueber for the double down.
-YHC apologizes for skipping Name-0-rama, too much q adrenaline going.
-Tclaps to Costco for his quick and efficient venue change for Happy Hours for tonight. It has been moved to Big Boss, be sure to ask Costco how he feels about that other brewery.
Prayers:
Deliverance’s father in law recovering from quadruple heart surgery.
