YHC was scratching his head on a weinke and decide to stay to the basics of a backbone F3 BC. YHC can appreciate how Rock Drop calls this time of year like working out in a bowl of tomato soup. The breeze at Arena was non existent but the blessing of getting better with the …
YHC chose not to bring the music out for this Q and play it safe. YHC tries to vary the weinke with every Q and appreciates the personality that each Q brings to their workout. 10 PAX chose to take DRP and fight the fartsack and got better. YHC has learned a lot about F3 …
YHC was pumped to lead the men of Arena. YHC spent all night coming up with workout and playlist to push the men of Arena. YHC started with Tom Petty in which PAX had no complaints but apparently Steve Miller band is not a favorite even with the “Respect” crew according to Ranger. I will …
YHC was excited to get back to live BC and see the men of Arena. I was concerned that no one would show up because of getting out of the habit of our schedules before COVID-19, however I am always pleasantly surprise of the will power of the F3 men that posted today. Arena is …

YHC was excited to have some awesome weather and be surrounded by the regulars at Arena.

Floppy brought some good music (although Rock Drop would disagree) and the PAX did the hard thing …
YHC had 2 weinkes ready for the Arena PAX. This is the first time the YHC had rain to deal with and was expecting a minimal turnout since there was a big thunder boom at 0400. YHC stole a weinke from twitter and used the “Deck of Pain” to keep the PAX semi-dry. Ranger was …
YHC was excited to have this convergence with Shawshank for the month of February. The Sterling Lake contingent did not show big numbers today and our lead mubblechatter Notebook was DR (all the PAX know he uses childcare as his excuse). Arena had corporate on hand today (Ranger and Kendoll) with the future Nantan (RockDrop) …
YHC was excited that the PAX of Shank are converging with the Arena PAX for the month of February. YHC was a little nervous that the possible mubblechatter and thought it was going to be at an all-time high (I guess Notebook and Floppy have conditioned me well). It is always great to meet new …
YHC had lots of energy and pushed the PAX today (will stay off the Red Bull for the next Q). Arena PAX continue to disappoint with the “Great Alaskan” shootout but one of these days 2 baskets will be made, work was done! 37 degrees and clear 12 Pax do work without a block for …
YHC was asked to pinch hit for this one. A light night National Championship Football game + Rain usually equals bad numbers for PAX however 7 men came out to get better. The iron is sharp at Arena! Weather – 55 degrees (post rain) Disclaimer Opening prayer, Lords Prayer, Pledge Warm up: 15 IW IC, …

YHC was excited to start the new year off right with the Arena men!

The …
YHC was feeling the pain of eating terrible over Christmas and eating his weight in Christmas Cookies, definitely brings up the reminder from our Cornerstone discussion that you can not “out King your Queen”.

The YHC was impressed that his co-Q pitched through the pain of twisting his ankle on Monday at Crusade (Tclaps to Voltron). This was the first time I co-Q’ed and really enjoyed the change up in the workout, definitely need to look to have more co-Q’s – feeling a Headgear/Notebook pain party. Strong work men! Conditions: …
YHC enjoyed paying tribute to F3 Chedda and running the Gladiator. I do not think the same sentiment was shared by the PAX per Quest “why are we doing this, he is in Charleston”. All in all in was great to run the “Gladiator” with the PAX and see guys like Jack Hammer and Pot …
YHC gave a Halloween beat down as Arena PAX tried to dress up as the one and only “man maker”, sleeveless and sporting the guns – need to try harder Arena PAX! 70 degrees and humid on this Halloween of 2019, 9 Pax celebrated the ability to use blocks as we circled the elementary school …

Big day for Arena to celebrate 2 years – YHC was nervous to be the Q today and trying to think of something creative to celebrate the PAX of Arena. YHC thought it would be cool to celebrate the AOQ’s by having a team scavenger hunt lead by a Voltron team and Recall/Tiger Blood team. …

YHC’s F3 name is 7-11 and by contract I am supposed to Q every year on 7/11, therefore YHC did not want to disappoint. YHC went outside the box and decided to have a “scavenger hunt for pain” in which 2 teams would compete to complete 7 workout stations at various places all over New …
YHC turned 44 today and wanted to tackle a tough task on my birthday – since joining F3 (a little over a year ago) we have had some tough boot camps. I have heard some of the PAX talk about a Murph, knowing that this is a really tough thing to do, I decided to see …
The Arena now has lights, don’t know if this is a good thing seeing the PAX’s faces – no where to hide now! YHC was excited to have Q and it was another great turnout. YHC’s goal was to push the PAX to quiet the mumble chatter – overall the YHC succeed, and paying for …
Weather – clear, high 40’s YHC was excited to have his second Q at stride. The PAX turned out and we had a good showing starting with 10 PAX and ending with 12 PAX. The YHC is finding out that he is getting a little older and that seeing up close is getting to be …
YHC was a little tired from the Dam to Dam and concerned Voltron was going to be a little upset with the YHC for needing him to run the hardest leg in the Dam to Dam as a pinch runner (#TClaps Voltron). YHC was able to pull through with sore legs and work was done …

YHC was happy to have a Fish Wrap to co-Q and bring the pain this morning. The Arena crew sweated to the oldies Richard Simmons style (Quest even broke out into a dance).

Conditions: 45C, Cool and Breezy The YHC was welcomed by the boys at Crypt and I was challenged by Voltron to give a good workout. YHC not only got to get in some good work I was able to witness the shovel flag exchange from Strut to Rocking Chair. I know Strut has done a …
