Sunday Mass

Another Sunday mass another stellar turnout,
7 of the faithful come to pay homage to the Malaysian heat and the gods of strength, perseverance, and determination!
as usual we set up a 7 station circuit to begin, but spiced things up with a nice Sled drag and Farmer's walk combo thanks to the THING, followed by weighted and tethered bear crawls which suck big time! but everyone seems to love once they are completed. 




           Would you take part in a drill designed by this man?
you are smarter than us!!!


That's a beautiful sight!




This week we have some of our members making there video debut's, 


A special mention for our newest member Art who has dived in at the deep end and is flying! he is ready to tackle anything that's thrown at him and that is to be commended! 
I'm positive that Art will be a regular feature in posts to come.




Now on with the show!






Art trustingly follows the THING with no regard for his personal safety! (you can tell he's the new guy!)


So Art pops his sled cherry with 85kg so approx 180lbs then farmers walk's with 70lb kb's in each hand, incidentally two weeks ago Art picked up the 70lb kb's and thought better of it what a difference a fortnight makes!




Rare footage of the TITAN in action, Steven is a great addition to our group, for no matter how hard or taxing the drills are he will have a go and give it his best! and I for one admire that! in my previous post The Monster Machine this is exactly what I'm talking about Steven is far from the most regular exerciser and is fairly uncordinated but will never shy away from the challenge, my favorite kind of MONSTER!




We move on to the weighted bear crawls 10kg vest and super heavy resistance bands, for safety we had to shorten the distance traveled as the resistance of the band bent open the metal rings on the vest!  first up is Zaid and once again readers should know this guy was fasting so no food no water and today was hot! 




                                   Art dives in and has a field day!




Next up is Phil, all the drills that suck Phil seems to love! heavy ropes and now the weighted bear crawls!  first time for him but as always great form, the one thing I love about working with Phil is he needs very little direction.




And as I mentioned the TITAN refuses to back down from a challenge! a small adjustment in resistance and away he goes!



After the first round Art & I are still smiling!


Art, say hello to the weighted Bear crawl!


Neo is down!


Do these smiles look forced to you?


And this is the moment I quit!
