    Before we got into the warm-up and beatdown, Q took a few minutes to explain what happened on June 6, 1944 – D-Day – Operation Overlord then asked the PAX to face the flag, kneel and take a few moments of silence to recognize the efforts of the Allied troops that stormed the beaches of Normandy during WWII as the largest seaborne attack to date.

    Warmup:
    • Warmup with 21’s. As many rounds as it takes to complete together. 10 burpee penalty for each missed round.
    o Bourbon threw in an extra challenge – penalty and start over if any PAX uses a noise/slapping of leg on count to assist count. Q was super impressed that all 17 PAX nailed it on their first try! No penalties assessed.

    Beatdown:
    • BINGO:
    o Card deck of bingo cards is shuffled
    o Each member of the group is provided a bingo card (double up if more than 25)
    o A bingo card is flipped and the corresponding exercise is performed OYO; plank when finished.
     50% of PAX must finish the complete reps and count off
     Once the 50% PAX number counts, all PAX stop and go to next exercise
    o After every 5 cards is flipped, sprint to cones and back 3X by all PAX (50% rule in effect)
    o Exercises:
     B (1-15) = face value # of BURPEES
     I (16-30) = face value # of IMPERIAL SQUAT WALKERS (squat followed by imperial walker)
     N (31-45) = addition of # combo of NIPPLE SCRAPER MERKINS (merkin with chest to the ground)
     G (46-60) = addition of # combo of GROINERS (Starting from a merkin position, thrust your feet forward, landing outside of each hand. Thrust backwards to original position, repeato)
     O (61-75) = addition of # combo of OUTLAWS (Sitting in the position for flutter kicks, keep your feet together and make a big “O” with them); complete the total number for EACH direction (i.e. 61 = 6+1 = 7 outlaws each direction)
    o Whoever wins the BINGO round chooses an exercise that the PAX will complete 100 of OYO reps. 50% rule in effect.
