24 sets total of 24 exercises…(disclaimer: you may not get this done in 45 minutes, but you don’t have to go to work anyway.) After each set, run 100 yards. (576 exercises and 2400 yards for those curious)
- 4 sets of Step ups (12 each leg) – you have to step it up to be a good husband.
- 4 sets of Wax On (hand straight out front, rotate inward) – You have to let your M “wax” poetically and just listen.
- 4 sets of Wax Off (rotate outward) – think eyebrows…the things we’ll do for our wives.
- 4 sets of Push ups aka Merkins – you have to push your M up higher than you. Other than God, she’s your #1.
- 4 sets of Pickle Pounders – think honeymoon, then think again…you’re old now.
- 4 sets of Pickle Pointers – ride Sally ride. You know who’s in control of your marriage.
