Apologies for the delayed back blast. YHC has loads of excuses for the delay. Hit me up if you want to hear some. 4 SOJ regulars assembled at NoToll for a summer beat down. YHC was assuming there would be enough for a lovely game of ultimate frisbee, but you know what the say about assuming. 2 on 2 is no good, so a boot camp it was. Rumor is that it went down something like this: THANG Mosey to basketball court for COP: SSH, DQs, stop, wait…aren’t there some bricks leftover in the woods? mosey to woods to pick…

Lured by the promise of coffee and donuts, 9 strong fought off the fartsack to hit NoToll in the foggy gloom. Warmup on the basketball courts with the PAX attempting to stay dry but there’s no way that was going to happen today, might as well get it done early. Travel across the bball courts with various movements including bear crawl, crab walk, duck walk, lunch, polar bear… Back to the pavilion with a 20 dip toll. 20 WWII in the pavilion and run to each corner of the fields for an exercise then back to the middle before going…

YHC jumped on the empty Q sheet slot Monday evening. It’s been a minute since YHC has Q’d at NoToll and was happy to see 10 HIM’s in the parking lot ready to get in shape for beach season. 530am on the swatch watch? Time to go. A short jog to the parking lot for 5 burpees to cross the bridge onto No-Toll field. Run down to the other end of the field for 5 more burpees and back over bridge #2. The PAX agreed that without the burpees a troll was likely to reach out and grab you as…

9 triple checkers gathered for a Brick inspired workout. Brick Jacks WWBrick American Brickhammer Brick Angels Brick shoulder taps Brick merkins Brick Circles. Mosey to first obstacle Triple check. Dips, American Hammer, Run to intersection Bernie back. Bricklayer crawl then last man does a Merkin and runs to the front. Next triple check was pole smokers and shoulder taps bear crawl then mosey back. Mosey back to the flag for your choice brick excercise. Reflecting on the title freed to lead. It’s an oxymoron. Leadership is often considered a shackle when we choose to lead it’s empowering. Go, lead, be…

Nine nefarious SOJ studs gathered in the NoToll gloom to experience the latest SOJ attraction… the finest pair of beatdown balls in all RVA!

An intimate gathering set for 2 was played on this perfect sunny and 70 morning. Parking lot looks a bit empty but rules are rules, lets get this going. According to the cops and dogwalkers patrolling the area, this is what went down. Warm up mosey down to Robious and return to the basketball courts for quick warm up that included a variety of exercises. Venture back out to the parking lot for Love Prairie. Runner runs to the gate and returns to switch with partner that is doing Bear Crawls, Lunges and Broad Jump Burpees. Mosey around the gate…

It has been a minute since YHC Q’ed a bootcamp (and apparently Q’ing a run doesn’t count). 8 HIM joined YHC on the lush fields of No Toll this morning to get the day started off right. Here’s what went down… 30 second late start waiting for PAX coming in hot. YHC received some jabs over starting late so off we go. Mosey to back parking lot.
