In desperation mode to reach the October ISI Challenge goals of 10,000 merks and 1,000 pull-ups, YHC shamelessly took the Q at The Uptowner and made everyone do merkins and pull-ups for 45 minutes.

Warm-up:  I waited too long to write this backblast, but I figure we did SSH x 31, IW x 25, Abe Vigodas x 20, and J-los x 20.

The Thang

Three groups of two.  We rotated between 5 pull-ups, 10 squats con roca, and 15 merkins.  We completed 10 rounds.

Break for some Mary:  Again, not sure, but I know dying cockroaches were involved.

Back to the rotation.  We did 5 rounds and then made it a free for all during the last 10 minutes.  Pax could work on anything they wanted and get in as many reps as the could.  I skipped the squats and worked on my merkin and pull-up numbers.

Moleskin

  • Thanks to all for helping me get to the October goal.
  • This actually turned out to be a pretty good workout, if I do say so myself.
  • You shouldn’t procrastinate.  How many times have I told myself that?
  • Great to see Apples and Two Yutes with the mid-week post.
