FRESH MEAT FOR THE GRINDER

Welcome to the PUNISHER




The Sunday madness has new recruits! and a former client of mine Zaid from the GOLD'S GYM days makes an appearance with Neo another former regular from Gold's, though I use the term regular loosely, Its great to see people so eager to get out in the fresh air and sunlight to push themselves and try some good old fashioned alternative hardcore training!
No polished chrome, 7ft mirrors, or air conditioning, just DIRT, SWEAT, LACTIC ACID, & PAIN! and not a treadmill or recumbent bike in sight, this is our HEAVEN & This is how we turn relatively rational individuals into MONSTERS (or sweaty heaps of meat on the ground), Sunday madness is like crack cocaine! one hit and your hooked you just have to come back for more! there is something special about training in a group in ridiculous tropical humid heat no matter what level your at, everyone is there to support each other and push each other and themselves! and there will always be someone right behind you ready to laugh there ass off at your suffering! but thats just fine! the group that suffers together stays together, the bonds created through shared pain are unbreakable! (and if you believe that bullshit you deserve to suffer!)




This weeks workout THE PUNISHER! the brainchild of the mad scientist THING, well I'm not sure about the scientist part, but mad is correct (if you ain't trained lately you get punished!) and THING'S gonna make sure of it!



                                     Ain't that right Neo?




I do my best to look mean while I fight the urge to burst into tears!





                                     The recovery area




Standing in disbelief that after all we have done I'm about to attempt this!




                    Yeah baby if you ain't inverted you ain't sheeit!



                                   Oh! oh! HEAD RUSH!





                          THING gives us all a lesson on form



And coping with cramp!






The local street sweepers give up just watching and get in on the action



The THING in his natural environment, a human ribcage on the end of his fist!


                     Zaid thinks "maybe I can make a break for it"





After much 100 plus Neo makes a full recovery


Ritchy and Neo do the one glove tango



Another workout over we all head back to normality some of us thinking to ourselves "what can we do next week" and others thinking "f*#ck this s#*t! I ain't coming back here!"
