Conditions: 73 and muggyStats has so much street cred that he flat out refuses to write a Backblast, so this is being ghostwritten on his behalf. In fact, he has SO much street cred that several regular members of the PAX stayed in the fart sack. One must wonder whether they were just feeling the …
Amidst the swelter, the moist heat of a @F3Columbia summer, seven men bested the Monday #Fartsack in order to poke and prod their bodies into sharper bipedal machines. That is, we ran four miles, one of them down Devine Street. Conditions: Holy crap it’s hot and humid. TheThang: The map is nearly worthless if you …

When: the group consists of Uncle Ricos, Bad*#@*, backs with screws, knees with tissue for cushion.

3 Pax braved the harsh elements (70 degrees, 170% humidity) for KB Beatdown and embarked on a modified Tabata KB workout. The Tabata High Intensity Workout is doing 1 exercise, AMRAP, for 20 seconds, then 10 seconds of rest, then continue for 8 sets or a total of 4 minutes. Each set is followed by …
YHC is always sure that Legion PAX will push it, and although there’ll be sure to be Grumble Chatter (especially if Hee Haw’s there), the PAX come to get work done. Today was no different, and it was YHC that felt like he was the 6 most of the time (smoked for sure). For those …
YHC decided to try and improve upon the #crowdpleaser Burpee Trees from his last Q, so this time there was a little more free will for the Pax in deciding how to best smoke themselves. Conditions: Hot, clear and buggy. The Thang: All in cadence unless noted SSH x25 Through tunnel x15 Mountain Climbers x20 …
Steve Jobs has been quoted as saying, “Deciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do.” So much emphasis has been put on reading things and following instruction that YHC thought it might be a good idea to focus on some of things we really shouldn’t do. It’s difficult to find …
A challenge is a hard thing to pass up. So when Gaston tapped me last week for a Q and then tee’d up the #Ramble 5K plan for Friday it seemed like the perfect chance to knock out the #MyMile Strava challenge and see if anyone could post a new PR. Of course, it doesn’t hurt …
Disclaimer: YHC is hardly an expert. I mean, look at me. Warmup: SSH X15 TTT X10 Burpee X5 (OYO) LBC X15 Slow/ Fast Merkin Flutters X15 The main thang: From the KG Club House, pax executed a Bataan Death March around Kings Grant Ln., with a special pain station at Foot Point. After one cycle …
Pax all thought the designated Q was marking out a course for some intense THANG only to learn he was just having an intense “thang” of his own. So we called an audible for an impromptu KamikazE-Hamm Co-Q. Warm-Up (KamikazE): 30 x 4 ct SSH 10 x 4 ct Imperial Walkers 10 x 4 ct …
