In the balmy gloom, 10 other brave PAX congregated in The Gloom waiting on the arrival of the Q. With 30 seconds to spare, Chicken Wing gave a quick workout preview and set up for The Beatdown.

The Thang:

Mosey to lacrosse practice field. Warm-up:

SSH x 30

IW x 24

Windmill x 25

We proceeded to the main course of 7 stations of Tabata. Each exercise OYO of 8 reps for 20s on, 10s rest with a precision timepiece ensuring the PAX the full workout. As each exercise progress from 1 to 8 reps, Q offered encouragement. Calling out such phrases as, "Halfway done", "Last two", and "Last one, Make It Count!" One phrase was met with a little resistance, "3 down, 5 more to go!" Note to self, that was too early in the rotation, need to call out encouragement after 4 reps!

Mosey to COT.
