After a vote for what type of workout today would bring, the PAX decided on bootcamp, with BlackHat requesting something hardcore. Whether the workout was hardcore or not is up to each individual PAX, while YHC brought a hardcore playlist to…inspire? the PAX to get through the workout.

Starting the hardcore playlist, we jumped right into the following heading down away from Startex:

Repeat adding 1 rep to each exercise each time – bear crawl forward 4 steps, do 2 merkins, 2 plank jacks, 2 sets of back of shoulder taps… etc. Go until the first PAX (Blackhat!) reaches 10 rounds/reps. Mosey back to startex.

YHC took us out with a simple message of appreciation for how F3 and all of the PAX push me to be a better person, and I hope I'm able to return the favor.
