The Thang:
Pulled into The Village around 5:20 and blocked off main parking lot with cones for the coming Beatdown. During the beatdown at BombSquad yesterday YHC was honored to be able to call out some pain per our Q, El Red Cardo. Some PAX requested the now (in)famous UnderQuakers, however, UnderQuakers, need to be built up during a beatdown and can not, I repeat, can not be called out on the fly. Tried & true DORA 1-2-3 was called and the pain commenced. YHC did let the PAX know that he was on Q at #TheVillage today!!
Why am I talking about yesterday’s Beatdown? Because without the groundswell of calls for UnderQuakers, YHC would have not had his creative juices flowing for today’s Beatdown!! YHC wanted to create a beatdown as worthy and memorable as the UnderQuakers, something that would include multiple exercises, multiple reps, multiple memories, and most importantly, multiple pain. As I opened my mind to the possibilities, I had a vision and that Vision was. . . A series of coupon work, AMRAP exercises, carries, & crawls . . . and pretty much all things F3! Sprinkle in a #Kotter (great seeing War Eagle out in the Gloom) & an FNG’s 2nd appearance (Hello, lil’ Hose), dedicated regular PAX and we had all the necessary ingredients for a Beatdown to remember. . . YHC dubs the “Pain Train”. The Tacks were already laid out in the parking lot as white lines, 6 Pain Stations were place on the West & East side of the parking lot, and after our usual COP everyone’s Engines were raring to go!!
