Last week while perusing the Tweeter, YHC stumbled across an article that featured a workout touted to be a fat shredding workout. Curious, I read on. It didn’t take long to see that this workout was two things; 1) not easy, and 2) what we call an AMRAP. It consisted of 5 exercises (a couple …

Here’s how it went down: Conditions: 73 and just a “dash” of humidity thrown in for good measure. Tha Thang: Head to block pile and grab a cinder block. Fast mosey to suicide hill and deposit …
They always say “Only Q what you can do” and we certainly pushed that to the limit this morning. YHC has been slightly under the weather lately and pushed it to the limit this morning, taking the drive home rather slowly after feeling some merlot brewing. Nonetheless, the boys of TP did not let me down. …
The last Tues/Thurs of the month means it’s a Dealer’s Choice session at Hammer. 12 PAX posted, some with intentions of inflicting pain beyond realistic levels of execution. Hammer PAX are highly motivated and enjoy “one-upping” each other with called exercises, but sometimes things can get ridiculous requiring YHC to use the power of the …
9 pax assembled ‘round the Shovel Flag this morning to take the DRP and make their daily downpainment. It was a special day for the Q as YHC turns 44 today. When thinking about a theme for what we could do to get better today, the image of Dirty Harry Callahan’s .44 Magnum kept coming …

A call went out around lunchtime yesterday for a guest Q at the #Woodshed. YHC having only been to the Shed once before, and never having had an opportunity to Q there was happy to step in and spend some time with the Woodshed pax this morning. With limited time to prepare a plan, the …
Always good hanging out with the pax at Tomahawk, but this was YHC’s first Q out there. Every time I make it out to Tomahawk, I am always impressed by the resources they have at their discretion (huge hills, tires, etc..). So although a Q has plenty to choose from for his Q, don’t expect …
Twelve Pax did the harder thang and pushed through some circuit interval training. Good music, great camaraderie, and a little sweat was on display this morning.

7 pax post for the last day in May to see what YHC had imagined up for them. It was a typical spring morning that felt like a typical summer morning. The humidity did not disappoint, and neither did the pax. Weather: 73 with about 92% humidity, so the weatherman said it felt like 75 …

What a great, humid day to be in the gloom with my brothers. The Slammer always brings PAX out of the woodworks. Today, we had Bonsai make an appearance after nearly a year of not posting. We were missing some of our smarter regulars, but the insane ones still showed up for the craziness that …

The rare open slot was identified on the Q sheet, so Iron Mary challenged some of the new guys to step up and take it. YHC said he would gladly take it if no one claimed it by 5:00 pm on Sunday, and that he would bring burpees and leg day along for the ride. …

So after a long weekend of eating and eating and eating YHC needed this week to as certain pax would say “get my mind right” and by mind I really mean belly. Yesterday’s Murph, although tough in conditions absolutely helped to start the week off right both physically and mentally and most certainly a heartfelt …
Finally YHC gets to Q at Hammer. It’s probably been four months, but that just left more time to think up dastardly ways to inflict pain on the PAX. Billy Bob grabbed YHC before the workout and said we had an FNG, not sure if that meant to water down the workout or make it …

20 pax showed up in the gloom for some running, hills and a full body workout. We did this workout over a month ago so I don’t remember all of the details.

It was a humid day. Like running through a ocean suspended in the air. And as it happens sometimes, something I learned from Zuckerberg, I had no clue what was in store up until about 5 min to kick off. But of course, burpees are a must, right? Everyone absolutely loves burpees! I did not …

Well it was time for the end of the month Westside Convergence which normally means it is time for the MURPH. With so many MURPH options available on Monday the AOQ’s decided on a normal BC at The Hollow. The only problem was that there wasn’t a Q signed-up, so YHC stepped in late Friday …
On Wednesday night, Coppertone advised that an FNG would likely be posting in the AM. Not having drawn up my “routine” (as my M calls it), I decided to go the prototypical/classic workout route for Depot. The FNG didn’t show; nevertheless work was done.
