YHC enjoys reading, particularly backblasts form other areas, and ran across a great one from #Battle in Cola that detailed a highly sadistic #downPAINment engineered by Reynolds brothers Chaser and Okra. In spite of the many warnings issued on Twitter, 14 PAX thumped their way out of the #Fartsack and posted at the #Epicenter for what was sure to be one of the most evil hours of their lives. Fabio was on hand if any of the PAX needed to get right with God beforehand.
Conditions
Warm and muggy (It’s SC in Indian Summer – as predictable as the fern at the Y)
Disclaimer
The Thang
YHC came in a little hot thanks to a long night with the oldest and his asthma so Meatloaf did some CoP stuff (I think SSH x20, Imperial Walkers x 10). #Cobains for the tardiness. #TClaps for picking up my slack!
Slaughter start: 100 burpees OYO. Sets of 10. Call out the set number each time you complete one. No rest in between sets.
Fast mosey to football field. Circle up at near goal line. 50 burpees OYO. Call out sets same as before.
Fast mosey to other goal line. Circle up for 20 more burpees. If you make it to 170 total burpees, do some reps for your brothers.
Fast mosey to #HillOfPain and partner up for Jacob’s Ladder.
Jacob’s Ladder:
- Partner 1 holds high plank at bottom of hill
- Partner 2 sprints to top of hill, 15 squats, sprint back down hill and do 15 fist bump merkins
- Flapjack with P2 doing 14 squats then 14 fist bump merkins at bottom
- Descend all the way to 1
Fast mosey back to flag
Finish up burpees alternating with partner until you to get to 200 or time is called.

Prayer Requests
- YHC has had both boys at ER this week. Oldest is having a lot of trouble breathing. Very scary. Bad words have been uttered it’s so scary.
- All law enforcement officers, especially in Forest Acres. #TClaps to the brothers in Lexington and Cola who honored Officer Alia this morning. Emotional to see Chaser’s picture of the BoM at #FAPD
NakedMan Moleskin
- Yes, YHC came in really hot. #TClaps to the guys for giving me enough of a hard time for me to know you’re there. It’s been a difficult summer and start to fall for the whole family. Your support means everything. #Cobains for my tardiness. Should have just stayed up.
- Apparently, Dolly thinks being married erases any natural advantage for being less than half the age of the other PAX. Couldn’t really tell it made a difference when he was smoking the rest of us doing burpees.
- The looks of the PAX when YHC said “100 burpees” was priceless. Even better look when YHC said he was for real for real. #TeenLingo
- The #Mumblechatter was great in the #Gloom. But only one of the PAX applauded the Qs efforts. The rest of the PAX were plotting a real beatdown in the parking lot.
- YHC asked Cagney, a sworn law enforcement officer, for an escort to the parking lot. Unbeknownst to YHC, Cagney was the ring leader for organizing the Q lynching…
- Great work by all the PAX. That’s a lot of burpees. #TClaps to the guys who recognized their limits and modified but never quit working. That’s what it’s all about.
- It was a pleasure for YHC to lead the PAX today, as always! YHC did notice that a lot of PAX wen to Shipyard today… Proud to have led the 14 who took the #DRP, put on some big boy pants and posted for an intense workout. #TClaps
