11 PAX arrived at #TheCastle to get better. It was cold, everywhere, except for YHC’s refrigerator, which decided to Fartsack and move to summertime temperatures. Fortunately, it was noticed after the workout, so distractions were at a minimum, but getting the 2.0s out the door for school was more challenging than usual. YHC also didn’t know we had a Friendly New Guy joining us as he arrived late, but he did very well, and kind of named himself. More on that later.
YHC created a Weinke based on this day in history, January 30, 2000. There were multiple other January 30th historical events to choose from, but this date was pretty relevant. This was 19 years ago, Super Bowl 34 (or XXXIV for those Roman numeral nerds) in Atlanta where the St. Louis Rams beat the Tennessee Titans 23-16. With Bricks, Blocks and Jump Ropes, and reps of 23, 16, 34 and one 19, the PAX got after it.

During Name-O-Rama, YHC unwittingly asked our FNG for his information as I thought he posted with us from another AO. He said his hospital name and WannaBe. I asked how old he was, he answered. He earned respect. We finished and Kamikaze, the PAX who put the EH on him, said there was a Friendly New Guy. After he told the PAX about himself, it was agreed that WannaBe was his F3 name. For future reference, don’t assume FNGs will be on-time! Solid work done by the PAX, 374 jump rope clicks and some balanced resistance work.
