QIC pulled up to the Marsh to see zero cars, zero F3, and 3 minutes to beat down. My first thought was of how my machinations to bring more abdominal agony could’ve been discovered (reviewing all groupme post of the last week), causing such fear as to preclude the formation of more than a solo PAX. But then, before I could say Avengers Assemble! Butt Splice, Carpool, and Shooter converged on the spot, and with a collective double take, we spied the injured Grundy pull up, figuring to get one more beat down under his belt before an 8am MRI. We proceeded to zip through the warmorama to get to the good stuff. There wasn’t much mumble chatter, aside from grunts, groans, a bazooka explosion and general discontentment as the core (and upper quads) were set ablaze with some hanging leg lifts and our Monday favorite, the Bruce Lee! (now with 2 bonus sets!!!) Keeping to the running theme of QIC discovering how much better some things look on paper than feel in reality, We hit the court for a suicide ladder….up AND back down. Every time we returned to our starting point we would perform 8 count body builders, increasing reps x5 upon each return. Once we hit x20 we proceeded to reverse our way back down the suicide ladder of horrendous pain and torturous exhaustion. As if everyone’s simmering hate for QIC wasn’t quite ready to boil over yet, we squeezed out 20x hanging knee raises to put a proper period on this pre-dawn persecution. We wrapped up with COT and offered special intentions for healing of Grundy’s wrist. As we dispersed, I noticed a white shirt drift off into the gloom towards the monkey bars. Apparently not sufficiently beaten down, Shooter was off to shake out a few pull ups for the ISI challenge (BEAST!) I guess it’s back to the drawing board to bring a more adequate amount of pain next time…
