After a hiatus to take care of treating my cancer (which has gone well overall so far) I was back again leading the PAX with some kettlebell workouts. Admittedly I did drop 5 pounds in kb weight; otherwise I would have struggled more. The workout went like this: COP: SSHs (just kidding I don’t do those for COP), DQs, helicopters, DMH, HRMs, MCs and FMs. Mosey to back of school. Doras with a theme of 52 (upcoming birthday): 52 sit and press, 104 bench press and 208 LBCs. Mosey toward other side of school. 2 sets of 13 lawnmower pulls…

A dirty dozen of familiar faces and some welcomed strangers gathered for a mumble-chatter convention attached to a deceptive KB beatdown.
