6 studs posted in the gloom of Twin Team this morning – 5 to find out that Gumbo pulled a last-minute grab of the Q. With no plan in mind, YHC was thrilled to have a PAX of 6 and therefore, partner work and triple checks at my fingertips. This is what transpired: Mosey behind BWES to the blacktop for COP, including: JazzercisesDQsSSHsImperial WalkersTempo MerkinsLBCsBox Cutters THE THANG: Jacob’s double-sided ladder Form up on one side of the blacktop. Run to the other side, do 1 burpee. Backpedal back to starting side and do 1 merkin. Continue, adding 1 burpee…

A terrific 12 fought off the warm comforts of the fart sack to converge on a almost frozen Twin Team AO. With a fierce gust coming from WAY north of the James, YHC knew it was best to keep our SOJ friends warm via some movin’ around. 530? Let’s Boogie. COP Mosey to the Bus Loop. 5 burpees for YHC’s missed Q. SSH, Cotton Pickers, DQs, Imperial Walkers, Helicopters, Arm Circles (and reverso). The Thang Exercise 1: Merkin Ladder An original workout routine concept by YHC. Run to the end of the bball court and do 20 merkins, run back…
9 almost able bodies showed up to what was supposed to be a boot camp at Twin Team but ended up more like a Monday morning River Run. Here is somewhat, how it went down. Mosey to the playground basketball court, DQ’s, Cherry Pickers, Jassersize, Helicopters, Merkins and LBC’s not exactly in that order Short Mossey down past ball fields stop in front of stadium Man Killers Short mosey behind JRHS by tennis courts Various exercises stopping at each light pole from stadium to opposite end of JRHS back parking lot Long Mosey trough park, stop outside the indoor outhouses…
Despite various arrival times there was a nice round PAX of 6 waiting for the Q to show up at 0530. No Wojo so YHC took the potato and ran the crew behind the school for a warm up that included EFH’s Jazzercize along with some various planking and other stuff. 6 pack of Pullups and Derkins at the playground Doozy – To the parking lot for touch a pole – Partner up. 1 up to 5 poles, while partner does squats, then flutters, then American Hammers. Getting to 15 without repeating took some running and some planning ahead. PeeDee…
An empty slot on the Q sheet normally means a hot potato is in order but YHC took today’s potato Swirly style. A couple new faces at Twin Team so why not show them why we named the AO after a back road. A quiet crowd awaited 0530. Not a minute sooner (looking at you OC) we moseyed to the bus loop for a quick warmup before backtracking and heading to the bottom of Twin Team, stopping along the way for various exercises. The main event is a modified Jacobs Ladder on the hill. 10 strides, 1 burpee, back to…

The Iron PAX eagle landed once again at Twin Team and boy did it deliver for the elated 8 that posted. One would think that someone active in the construction world would not struggle to find a standard 38-40 lb cinder block, but….. YHC found himself at Home Depot on a Thursday night. With brief mumble chatter regarding the early launch at 5:15 and the workout that awaited the PAX, it was time to boogie. Slow mosey with coupons to the Rapids Stadium Track for brief COP: DQsImperial WalkersCopperhead SquatsArm Circles in both directions The Thang – Iron PAX Challenge…

YHC was up early to check the weather and field conditions and make sure everything was ready to go for SOJ PAX to take on the Iron PAX Challenge Week 1 Workout. Thankfully, RVA was mostly spared from the effects of Hurricane Dorian, as the field at “The Swamp” was uncharacteristically dry, with freshly painted lines (for the start of HS football season). In fact, the breeze was refreshing! Perfect conditions to take on some “Killer Bs”! For those who didn’t attend Wojo’s IronPAX Week 0 preview last week, the basic idea of the Iron PAX Challenge is an idea…
