Introduction
The pre-blast was called the Sin Bin. And what do you know? Lightening closed all the KC AO’s but one. PAX drove far and wide (truly cool to see) to test their souls. It turns out the real sinners are the ones who didn’t show up? All PAX spent their fair share in the Sin Bin. But i can report all souls who attended have been cleansed (cue the choir and organ crescendo)!
Warm-O-Rama
3 minute delayed start as we waited for PAX to gather from the other AO’s. Stretched on our own then a short slow mosey to loosen the joints.
The Thang
There were 5 stations of exos. Each PAX was to complete each station on their own. Once you started a station, you could not move on to the next one until complete.The PAX were free to attack the 5 stations in any order they wanted. When a PAX completed all 5 stations, they moved to the SinBin.
The SinBin: The PAX must execute and hold a static leg lift. The feet must be between 6-8 inches off the ground. Legs straight. Toes up. Arms at your side or in the air, but not under your body. This positions was to be held until all PAX were complete with the 5 stations. If you broke form or touched heels to the ground, you became a sinner. Sinners would then have to find a PAX not done with the 5 stations and join them in finishing the exos (this was the PUT6 attempt). As the PAX began to get done, there was a lot of churning in the Sin Bin. PAX would enter, hold the position as long as they could, and then exit to find someone to finish with as they couldn’t hold any longer. When all PAX were finished with the stations we ended round 1 with a 30 second team leg lift hold.
Round 2 consisted of the same criteria, but with a new punishment for the Sin Bin. If you broke the hold, you had to pop up and knockout 10 burpees. This was a battle for the PAX, especially YHC. Hold the legs as long as one could? Or touch the heels and start doing burpees? The PAX knocked out round 2 and there was much moaning in the Sin Bin as PAX went back and forth holding to failure and doing burpees.
The Stations:
Burpee to Squat jumps
Perform a burpee in front of the rock wall. Jump up the 2 ledges. Knock out 10 squat jumps = 1 rep x 10 reps.* There was some poor communication around this from this Q. Some PAX did lot more here than others. My bad. Consider your soul pure.
Merkin-Blast-Offs
Incline plyo-style Merkin on the bench. The goal was to push off and up as hard as one could. Rinse and repeat. 25 reps.
Bulgarian split squats with a jump. One leg at a time, 10x per leg.
50 V-ups on the bench followed by 50 LBC’s
50 dips on bench
Circle of Trust
Prayer requests for any and all. Remembering to pray for job interviews, injuries, Covid issues among PAX, general well being for all of us. We miss TAPS.
Naked Man Moleskin
It was great to see so many make the drive to the AO. This could be (though not an official statement) the most PAX at Rabbit-Hole. There was some amazing effort put out to hold the position in the Sin Bin. The Q instituted a no walking rule into the BD after it was started. YHC really got some sick satisfaction out of yelling “no walking” at PAX as they moved between stations. Specifically, yelling at BathSalts not to walk made me feel really warm and fuzzy.
