Moleskine:
107 years ago, an armistice was signed between the Allies and the Axis powers. The hope was that this would be the end of major conflicts/wars. A mere 21 years later, an even bigger conflict erupted.
We celebrate Armistice Day/Remembrance Day/Veterans Day to remember those who served and gave up some or all of their lives to give us the freedom that we so often take for granted. My charge for you today is to TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED! Thank a veteran today, and remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

The Thang: Murder Bunny 5 Alive
We did Five Alive with Curl Presses, Nut Crackers, Skull Crushers, Thursters and Merkins.
It worked like this…
You did one curl press and then Murder Bunny 5 yards and do two curl presses, Murder Bunny 5 yards/three curl presses. Continue until you do five curl press.
Then you reverse murder bunny back to the start and add nut crackers. So 5 curl presses, 1 nut cracker. Repeat the murder bunny pattern up to 5 curl press and 5 nut crackers. Reverse murder bunny back and add skull crushers. Continue this same routine through all 5 exercises.
As an added bonus we had a timer to stop and do 20SSH/5 burpees every 5 minutes.
