Deck of cards
ad
Noticed a couple of guys doing this and decided to join them. Put a deck of cards between you and your partner, flip a card every 15 seconds, whatever face value it is, that's your reps, seems simple enough. Face cards, (jack,queen, king) are 10 reps, Aces are 1 rep, Jokers are an additional 10 seconds of rest, and 2-9 are obvious. Try to complete the whole deck in 15-20 minutes. Remember, 52 cards total.... We were doing push-ups, but you could incorporate this into any exercise.... squats, abs, pull-ups. Thought I would share cause this whipped my ass, I ain't gonna lie, I made it to about the 35th card and called it quits...LOL ~~~~~~later

Anon"the arm guy" at the gym always looking at me funny while he does his curls every fucking time he does show up. MF'ers ought to stay home!
haha most gyms are full of the same types. i know which you mean, usually the 18-21 yr old doing half repped curls on preacher that would be way too heavy to complete a full rep, yet really hoping you notice so you know he had STRONG arms. i dont like ego and bad attitude i want to do my squats and go. if i wanted to have impressive arms i would bore myself to death curling every session. but sadly i will have to put up with actually being a lot fucking stronger. ergh never mind me.
you want a card workout??? this is what i would do to people and the satisfaction comes for days later. 13 cards on the floor in front of you. i would do it with the person but my endurance was able to handle it you step forward squat down and pick up 1 card, step forward squat put down the one card, squat pick up 1 card, squat pick up next card, step forward and do the same with each putting each down one at a time and picking each up one at a time till you've done all 13. it is a crazy work out. and to see guys barely able to walk for a couple days after is cool. if you dont have the leg endurace it may get you but i love the workout.
OE2000Hell yes Diez.... Is there a certain number of sets, or just go until you can't walk? Gonna try this in the morning.... thanks
We would "do a deck" a few times a day in lockup (no weights where i was), good way to pass time and get pumped. Pushups,hack squats, burpees, any multi joint exercise will do. You'd be surprised how buff a cat can get on calisthenics, carbs, mad water, and low quality protein. We'd compete by going till someone cant do anymore, it was nothing to do 4 decks in a row after a while.
Definitely old school, in the hole workout... Way back, way way back in the day, 300 burpees in 45 minutes, did it for 15 months 22 days in a SHU trip. Old history, but I was in great shape
Nasty81NateThat shit is gangsta dude, may need a line of crank before I try that one!
