6 Pax fought the urge to remain dry and warm in their fartsacks to brave the cold and wet morning in the gloom of Jumanjii. Since the rain was still coming down, albeit slowly, YHC showed the Pax how much he cared for them by taking them to the sheltered bus loop at the middle school. Unbeknownst to them, YHC planned on bringing a Boneyard style beatdown adhering to the motto of 45 mins then recover. I will attempt to recreate the events that occurred to the best of my recollection but it was such a strange series of events and mumblechatter plus there were so many exercises thrown in between sets of who-knows-how-many dips that it just becomes a blur of awesome. Ok, here it go!

Can’t remember everything here but did we really do that many dips? No wonder my dippers are sore!
Somewhere in the middle of all of this fun we were paid a visit by one of West Columbia’s finest. Apparently the notorious Billy Blanks and his merry gang of kick-boxers have been terrorizing the North Side Middle School area and since YHC has the same build as Billy Blanks it’s not surprising that a concerned citizen would report the siting. Luckily for us it was quite obvious that we were not a danger to anyone but ourselves.
For the next series of exercises we alternated the exercise with a mosey between the poles along the entire length of the bus loop
Duck walk
After reaching the side entrance at this end of the bus loop we found ourselves in the remnants of what apparently was an exploding backpack or as one sign might have implied the ruthless beating of a middle school referee by a gang of over zealous soccer moms. Anyway, someone scored a dollar but the pencils and hi-lighters were left untouched.

Moleskin:
- Once again, great work by the herd at Jumanji. YHC brings the pain and these guys ask for more…That sounded like a “50 shades” movie promo.
- There was so many good mumblechatter moments and things that happened during this workout it is impossible to remember them all. This was definitely a workout where the backblast just wrote itself the whole time. At one point I laughed so hard I couldn’t keep cadence and I can’t even remember what it was that got me.
- I do remember WHO it was though…Tclaps Ginger, you broke the Q, lol!
- Note to self: Tone the guns down a little so you don’t get mistaken for Billy Blanks again.
- This ranks up there on my list of strangest and most entertaining workouts I have experienced. Cobains that the backblast doesn’t do it justice but this was something that can only truly be experienced first hand. So don’t get left out next time with just reading the backblast, get your butts out of the fartsack and to Jumanji.
