Almost 3 years ago, Lauren Padula was visiting from San Diego. We knew she was one of the NPSD co-leaders, but we were unaware that Orrin and Angelo were going to let her experiment with the LAX tribe. Boxing Day 2014 was a massacre. The phrase “deconstructed Sebastian” sounded like music to our ears. Rather than doing 7 minutes straight of burpees, we only had to do 7 individual 1 minute rounds with a little run in between. Well, as with all things that co-leaders say while smiling, it was rough. The boat house looked so close to where we were. Turns out that it is roughly 200m away. Why would anyone think that doing a minute of burpees followed by a 400m sprint would be easy?
Then repeating that 7 times. It is just downright cruel. 
So, today I brought “Padulas” back into the fold. You’re welcome, tribe!
Do Good, LA!

- Fun Fact: Sea Otters have pockets! Under each foreleg, the sea otter has a loose pouch of skin that extends across the chest. In this pouch (preferentially the left one), the animal stores collected food to bring to the surface. This pouch also holds a rock, unique to the otter, that is used to break open shellfish and clams.
