Split PAX into groups of 3 or 4 to form our own classic Aussie rock bands. Every member of the band does exercises together.
Part A – ACDCs
Australian Snow Angels x45
Curls x45
Dips x45
LBCs x45
‘Lead singer’ (one member of band) mosey to the bottom of the hill & back while carrying their coupon. Everyone else in the band does mountain climbers (to climb to the top of the record charts). Band completes three rounds while enjoying some great ACDC tunes.
Part B – INXSs
Incline Merkins x35
No Surrenders x35
Box Jumps x35
Squats (with coupon) x35
‘Lead singer’ (one member of band) mosey to the bottom of the hill & back while carrying their coupon. Everyone else in the band does mountain climbers (to climb to the top of the record charts). Band completes two rounds while enjoying some great INXS tunes.
COT
Watched a video the other day of an Australian Football broadcaster opening up about a complication that his daughter had soon after being born. The video was called The Last Time I Cried and it really hit home about how men are often expected to be the rock of a relationship.
I encouraged the PAX to find someone or a handful of people they feel comfortable opening up to, whether that be a friend, spouse or work colleague. It’s important for EVERYONE to be able to be emotional when they need to be, and not to feel the need to bottle this emotion up inside.
Moleskin
Back Pew showed up a few minutes early – a BIG surprise! Credit to Backfire too who still enjoyed a great beatdown despite missing the first 10 minutes. Great music from ACDC and INXS was enjoyed by all. Care Bear just wished he got to hear some Men at Work. Next time!
News
Nothing much to note. She Shed on Q at Lions Den Friday. Get out in the gloom and enjoy another beatdown before the weekend!
