Apparently, Yankee Jeaux thought he had Q tenure or something and decided that we were going to do self love…whatever, YJ. So, after gently reminding YJ that he was not the professor of this beatdown, YHC begrudgingly called out self-love. Everyone wants to be the ALPHA, I guess….
Introduction:
If one is to believe evolution, then humans and their genetic predecessors have walked the earth for millions of years. Our predatory instincts and apex tendencies have kept us firmly at the top of most food chains. But every now and then, man is bumped from his predatory perch, and demoted to the unenviable state of prey. This beatdown re-explored this dynamic. It explores the precarious positions men find themselves in when confronted with true Alpha species.

1st Work out:
Danger Zone- Kenny Loggins:
PAX performs side straddle hop while Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins plays in the background. Everytime the words danger zone are heard PAX does single squat then resumes side straddle hop. End result is 3 and a half minutes of SSH with sporadic squats.
3rd workout-Lions
The Tsavo Man-Eaters were a pair of large man-eating male lions in the Tsavo region of Kenya, which were responsible for the deaths of many construction workers on the Kenya-Uganda Railway between March and December 1898. The lion pair was said to have killed dozens of people, with some early estimates reaching over a hundred deaths. While the terrors of man-eating lions were not new in the British public perception, the Tsavo Man-Eaters became one of the most notorious instances of dangers posed to Indian and native African workers of the Uganda Railway. They were eventually killed by Lieutenant-Colonel John Henry Patterson, who wrote his account of his hunting experience in a semi-biography The Man-eaters of Tsavo. As Patterson fire his final shot into the last charging lion, the man-eater lunged at him. But Pattersons shot found its mark. The lion slammed into the dirt of the African dessert, landing hard at the feet of the hunter.

4th Workout-Hippos
Let’s stay in Africa for a bit, where we find Africa’s most deadly killer. Not necesarrily a man eater, but a killer none the less. Everyone knows that hippos kill more people in Africa than any predator, but they have also become a nuisance in South America. After escaping Pablo Escobar’s personal zoo, they have reproduced, and depite the efforts of local authorities resulting in an all out Hippo war, they have continued to thrive. So in honor of these body stacking beasts, we will

5th-Workout-Tigers
In some cases, tigers will change their natural diet to become man-eaters. This is usually due to a tiger being incapacitated by a gunshot wound or porcupine quills, or some other factors, such as health issues and disabilities. In such cases, the animal’s inability to hunt traditional prey forces it to stalk humans, which are less appetizing but generally much easier to chase, overpower, and kill. This was the case with the man-eating tigress of Champawat, which was believed to have begun eating villagers at least partially in response to crippling tooth injuries.[5] As tigers in Asia often live in close proximity to humans, tigers have killed more people than any other big cat species. Between 1876 and 1912, tigers killed 33,247 people in British India.[6]

Beast of Gevudan
In 1764 and 1767 a wolf-like creature terriorize the French country side. For three years this beast hunted the citizens of Gevudan, France.
Hungry like the Wolf-Duran Duran
Start in the downward-facing dog position (high plank), transition to a low plank, then on Doo Doo Doo and the chorus move through to upward-facing dog, and back to downward-facing dog in one smooth motion. On the return to downward-facing dog, the PAX should push through the shoulders to really feel the burn. It kind of looks like you are going from downward dog to howling at the moon.
5th Workout
When Animals Attack:
YHC marked off an area (kill zone). Rules: All PAX must remain in the area at all times. One PAX (the attacker or “it”) starts in one corner, while all the other PAX start in the opposite corner. Assume the bear crawl position and stay there, alternatively the attacker can use the duck walk. The attacker begins to chase the other PAX throughout the kill zone (in bear crawl mode). Once contact is made with a PAX (“tag”), the contacted PAX becomes the new attacker, returns to their corner, and the game starts over.
PAX certainly showed their survival instincts. There was alot of pushing, ankle grabs, and wholesale sabotage to ensure survival.
