The Thang:
The plan was a Tabata workout, with 60 seconds of exercise, followed by 20 seconds of rest, which is just enough time to remember what’s next and get into starting position. YHC wanted to get the heart rate up for the cardio, while lifting rocks for the strength. The tabata format allows the Pax to use good form, rather than race to complete reps quickly and with poor form.
The flaw in the plan was poor attention to detail on my part, so for the first half of round one, we had 10 seconds of rest, which was a comically short period of time. This was corrected for the second half of round one through the end of the BD.
Round one:
Oil Derricks with coupon (Single leg deadlift, switch leg every 5 reps)
Mario Kart (Hold the coupon straight out and turn it back and forth like a steering wheel)
Australian Snow Angels
Coupon Squats
Skull Crushers
LBCs
Jazzercise (A cardio exercise that resembles grabbing someone taller than you by the head and smashing it into your knee, or some dodgy cardio from the 80’s)
Repeat those seven exercises twice, then on to Round Two:
Calf Raises (Slow)
Merkins
Flutter Kicks
Jazzercise
Wide squats with coupon
Upright rows
Boxcutters: Start on your six with your feet 6″ off the deck, make a box with your feet
Repeat until time runs out

Prayers for Benny, and Better Call Saul’s friend, Ace and his M as they are “sleep training” which sounds like long nights for all parties involved. Prayers for the many folks traveling, as well as any unspoken prayers, the Sky Q will know what to do.
Naked-Man Moleskin:
Grateful to this group of HIM, I look forward to the triumphant return of many more to the gloom soon…
