Exhibit A: A number of PAX show up for workout at the appropriate time, but some of said PAX decide to do an alternate workout (e.g. play ultimate rather than run, or do a regular run rather than a speed workout). Said PAX rejoin the group at the end of the workout for the COT. Consequence: Said rebellious PAX (YHC included) do not get included in the PAX list or get Big Data credit (or perhaps receive an asterisk that could be removed with burpees). Exhibit B: A number of PAX “show up” at the workout location, but not at…
Advertised a short workout with social. Five made it. Four for 13 minutes of exercises followed by the mosey to Dot’s Back Inn. A fifth met us for the second F. We did well on both ends – our reps and our beverages. Will do it again sometime.
YHC was welcomed to the gloom by 14 eager warriors on his VQ. Timberwolf was the setting which worked out great because my nephew loved Wolves and Sharks. Mosey to the bus circle for COP. It appears YHC had some difficulty counting and will practice that for next time. Don Quixotes (slow in honor of wilson), Arm circles,LBC’s, Merkens, There may have been some other exercises? Mosey back by YHC’s car to pick up my Buddy. Carry buddy (67lbs. Heavy bag) to track and start deadman carry. I was originally planning partners could carry Bob but after carrying Bob to the track I made my…
YHC rolled up, parked in the wrong lot, walked over to the guys, and Mudface kindly pointed YHC to where the ST is planted. A total of ten gloom warriors formed up to follow DTH into battle – here’s how we won the day: The THANG: Mosey to school wall for Warmerama: Donkey Kick-Offs: Sets of 5 DK’s followed by 5s feet on wall – went about 6 rounds Mosey to asphalt for COP #1: SSH x20 ICImperial Squat Walkers x10 ICDQ’s x10 ICHairy Rockettes x10 ICNo Cheat M’s x10 ICSweat Angels x20 IC Mosey to Field for COP #2:…
A familiar number for this KB AO, but some different faces. With no Q on the schedule, YHC served as host. On a humid and dark morning, 3 noble warriors and their assorted weights tackled the gloom. Here is how it went down: COP30 SSH15 Russian soldiers15 helicopters15 HRM20 Suzanne Somers, each leg25 APD30 2x LBCCatch me if you can – KB style in the bus loopOne man does 10 burpees then runs to catch up with his partner who is double barrel carrying 2 KBsRinse and repeat 3xTriple checkBear crawlLawnmower pullsHalosAMRAP challenge with four exercisesDecreasing rest intervals for each…
What started as an evening idea that got passed around to a few amigos, developed into a plan of action…a plan of destiny. For today there would be some redemption and soreness. Saab arrived with a heart full of enthusiasm and vigor. According to legend it went a little something like this. Mosey to other side of the parking lot and Swirly started us off. 4 Corners Corner #1 5 X 10 sets of merkins, corner #2 5 X 10 sets of merkins, corner #3 2 X 25 sets of merkins and corner #4 5 x 10 sets of merkins.…
9 mostly young warriors headed out to the gloom of Huguenot High to get a good beatdown. And in honor of Scrooge’s special birthday, we embarked on a 21 themed workout. I was initially disappointed to not see Scrooge at the COP. But right after I made a comment about it, he showed up 30 seconds later:) COP – Run to bottom parking lot, 21 SSH, 21 Freddy Mercuries, 7 Don Quixotes, 7 Helicopters and 7 arm circles First Exercise: Four corners with 21 heels to heaven, 21 hand release merkins, 21 2 count mountain climbers and 21 WWIIs; mosey…
A strong 9 posted in the darkness of MannDate with bells in hand – 7 regulars and 2 Summer Tourists, including a clueless Q trying to recall old KB exercises. It came back like riding a bike, sort of, and it went something like this: Mosey (walk with KBs held high overhead) around the parking lot and over to the lighted area by the front door of the school for COP, including: Don Quixotes (sans KBs)Helicopters (sans KBs)Halos IC both directionsGoblet copperhead squatsStaggered merkins – IC first with right hand on KB then with leftLBCsSit and press THE THANG 11s…
Come one, come all! Many of you have gotten to know Mouse Trap over the past 4 months as he quickly became a fixture after his April debut at Twin Team. Here’s your chance to come and support a brother (read: bring your mumblechatter — he’s gonna do his best Major Payne impression THIS FRIDAY 8/14 at Twin Team. Mouse Trap doesn’t pass a chance to post for others’ VQs and he’s probably successfully EH’ed more FNGs to F3RVA in his time with us than any other PAX member, so let’s return the favor for him! It may or may…
3 determined runners posted somewhere near launch time for a hot run. Everyone went on different jaunts, Lug put in 8.5 miles, Swirly 5.5 and TYA 4.5. Saab stopped by on his way home for a little 2nd F post run. Ok, so if anyone reads this post and are signed up for the summer tour, I might make them mad. I know a ton of people are on a quest to hit all the AO’s during the summer months. YHC is completely supportive of this quest and loves the opportunity to reconnect with PAX the are not typically at…
