10 HIM posted for a Fudd Q today. It’s a good thing YHC decided to show up (slightly late). Pigskin started the PAX of in COP with various warm up exercises. YHC appeared at 5:35 and took over. After a few rounds of different exercises and stretches we moseyed to the front entrance while YHC brainstormed on what to do next……. Various rounds of exercises with laps around the circle in between: lawnmower pulls, flutters holding bell overhead, pulse squats, bench presses, reverse curls with presses, various stretches, and maybe some other stuff. I think we did 3 rounds….. Mosey…

11 muscled warriors including a Circus Maximus first timer showed up for a kettlebell workout. It was reported that a dead body was found the previous morning at the workout site. Whether such report is true may be a mystery. Given that the first timer at Circus was Handshake, the amount of mumble chatter went up. The chatter included a discussion about a PAX who shall remain nameless getting a treatment on his head. Well anyways here is the workout: COP: DQs, CPs, merkins, FMs and LBCs Mosey to Pump road side of school. E1: Death crawls which are bear…

The following AI generated story is a slight exaggeration of what happened this morning during White Deer’s Q. I don’t use AI in my Q writeups, only for White Deer. In a gym that time forgot, nestled between the mists of myth and history, there stood a rugged clearing surrounded by thick oaks and buzzing with strange anticipation. The air was rich with an improbable concoction of sweat, wildflowers, and the faint aroma of roasted chestnuts. It was here that a peculiar gathering took place: the legendary fart duel between Attila the Hun and the White Deer. The attendees were…

Another great rock show in the back lot of Godwin. Wig participation was 13 strong, although some only lasted a few minutes until the heat or bad tasting rat hair resulted in a change. I was able to grab a setlist from the stage and it included the following: Rock of Ages: Def Leppard. Warmups to this classic (where the backblast title comes from for you Boomers or 20/30 somethings). Youth Gone Wild: Skid Row. Not sure the song would work as well with “Middle Aged Men Gone Wild”. We finished warming up to this song. Included some Flutter Kicks…

With no White Deer or Pigskin, this group of nine young hipsters decided to create a new trend by focusing of what Gomer called “well sculpted butts” No one admitted to having Tiktok but the following workout is now super popular on Snapface: Start with warmups of SSH, Ukrainian Soldiers, Copperhead Squats, Arm Circles, Helicopters, LBCs, 5 Burpees when the runner ignore our greeting and then Merkins. Then we moved to three sets of each the following eight kettlebell exercises: 10 Squats (first two sets holding rack position, 3rd sumo), 20 High Pulls, 10 Romanian Deadlifts, 20 Swings, 10 Clean…

9 middle aged plus men descended on the cool confines of the land of the Mills Godwin Eagle. I decided since we are in the 2020s to make the workout based mainly on female exercises. I got my inspiration from an attendee from the folk festival which said, “In the future the world will be ruled by females.” I thought it already was. COP: Helicopters, DQs, Merkins, mountain climbers, heels to heaven and ACs. Mosey to side of school. Dora #1: 75 Sit and Press, 150 Bench Press and 300 LBCs. Pacer runs down parking lot to next lamp post…
