9 members of the fabled Rock&Roll band tuned their instruments for an album of pain rarely appreciated by the common palate. An additional member join the PAX today, endearingly named YOKO, bringing with her an invitation to physical transcendence. Here is how these SOJ HIM’s threw caution to the wind and cried out in one voice “I want you!”
The THANG:
INTRO YOKO:
- Circle up in front of the DTH coupon wagon where the PAX meet“Yoko”, a 75 pound full size punching bag (State Farm lunged at the opportunity to wrap his arms around her)
- GOAL – Yoko remains held by the PAX for the duration of the 1 hour workout – added steps or squats encouraged by whomever has the honor of holding her
- HAND OFFS – Yoko may be passed to another PAX at any interval needed by shouting “She’s So Heavy!” The recipient PAX shouts back “I want you!” then assumes the honor of carrying Yoko.
- PENALTY – x10 Burpees awarded for the entire PAX should Yoko touch the ground (or put down in any way)
WARMERAMA:
- Mosey onto the basketball court and circle up

NMS: There was a wholelotta nasty cold wet reason to fartsack today, so YHC was very thankful to have a solid band of brothers to conquer the jester this morning, especially with the FNG no-show. But that’s OK, cause we all felt a little warmer holding Yoko close this morning. She was indeed heavy, and we did indeed all want her (though maybe Mudslide wanted her the most). Also, YHC is proud to report there were NO PENALTY BURPEES awarded for dropping Yoko today! Yoko will have a surprise return to a DTH sweat fest sometime again soon, so if you missed her today, just keep posting to the pain train and you’ll have a chance to wrap your loving arms around her. Next time she’ll have some better love handles to grab ahold of. Let’s GO! Yours, DTH
