I visited Greenville a few months ago and attended a “Main Thang” Q. Great group of guys up there and some nice hills to enjoy. YHC brought it to the Tomahawks and it went a little something like this… Conditions: 77 hot, humid, muggy, miserable degrees One Minute Warning Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: Take one lap …
I’ve been to neighboring Smokehouse a handful of times but have never led a workout, so no time like the present to lead a great group of men. There are a ton of options for anyone looking to Q including tires and pull-up bars. Not sure if anyone has ever brought a boat until this …
So I noticed recently stores already have school supplies available. That means it’s time to inspect our school and make sure we’re ready to go for opening day. Though we cannot guarantee our work, we can confirm this building has A LOT of windows and doors. Enjoyed it brothers! Conditions: Hot and humid (July) One …
A couple of years ago, my family visited Gettysburg and I incorporated a little history lesson into the beatdown when we returned from the trip. It is important for us to know our past and where we’ve come from, so I brought it back this morning and re-acquainted the Pax. Additionally, this would be another …
Can’t think of a better way to kick off one’s 45th birthday than with the men of Tomahawk. The focus was simply to get 45 reps and not worry about proper form or technique – just get the reps! So, we got the opportunity to perform some pretty silly exercises (ever heard of SSH block …
It’s always a blast playing football with the men of The Hollow and Smokehouse and we just couldn’t wait until football season to keep the rivalries alive. Some are a little better than others kicking, some are a little better at fielding, and one of us needs to enter the NFL now. Not sure who …
So it’s been a while since we’ve run the Goat Hill Gauntlet and no time like the present to get reacquainted. BUT, let’s change it up a bit and give the PAX a voice for their beatdown. Conditions: 28 and no wind Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: PAX were led to the bottom of the hill. …
So I worked out with the boys in Summerville at “The Ditch” last summer and had a blast. Redo was the AOQ and put on quite a show, so why not let the Tomahawk boys have fun with it? I must admit I was a little worried this Q would not meet the high standards …
So it’s been a while since we’ve run the Goat Hill Gauntlet and no time like the present to get reacquainted. Additionally, I don’t think we’ve ever published a Backblast from the Gauntlet. The Tomahawk boys made several rounds and there was very little complaining or mumblechatter. Hey, where’s Grout? Conditions: 73 with 110% humidity …
Unfortunately, our beloved Julep is under the weather and could not lead us this morning. So, time to step up and figure out what to bring the Tomahawk boys to make their trip worthwhile. If Julep were able to Q, we all know what he would have included – Triple Nickles and Man-Makers in cadence …
Bricks and Hills: Since BRR is not far away, time to hit the hills. We even added hand weights (bricks) for those worried about missing shoulder work today. Not to worry, the Tomahawk boys came through with flying colors as evidenced by the constant mumblechatter. Bull even mocked YHC at the top of Pec’s Peak, …
Four Station Block Relay – The original idea for this workout had us moving between stations relay style with blocks. Since we didn’t have quite enough PAX to make this happen, we stayed together and probably had more fun as a group anyway. Conditions: A beautiful breeze Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: Each PAX grabbed a …
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 …
Time to kick off Tomahawk’s Co-Q challenge for the month of March and I (Chum Lee) had the honor of hosting with Hopps. The pax came with high hopes for Hopps (as they should) and of course he did not disappoint. Conditions: 48 – just right Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: Mosey to Hopp’s Greenhouse/Shop area. …
The only way to end Burpuary is with a record-breaking performance from the Tomahawk boys. These guys never disappoint and can take anything you throw at them. Conditions: 42 degrees – perfect burpee weather Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: The most miserable and simple workout to date: 481 burpees. That is all. Mosey to Flag Count …
The PAX have been begging for more full body beat-downs and I’m in no position to let them down. The more you throw at these guys, the stronger they come back! Conditions: 32 degrees – warmer than Tuesday Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: Grab a partner and head to the corner of the gym. Perform the following: …
1. Disclaimer 2. Prayer Twelve Exercises of Fitness: Pretty simple, we started with exercise #1 and kept adding exercises until we reached 12. The Pax were so delighted to reach #12 that we decided to work our way back down to #1. Overachievers! 1. 100 yd sprint 2. Diamond Merkins 3. …
It was great to have our brothers from the Hollow and Smokehouse join us for a little pigskin fun. Just so you know, a soaking wet football is difficult to kick. Regardless, the PAX did not complain and competed tirelessly. Conditions: Cool 39 degrees Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: At the stadium: Enter the stadium and …
This morning we experienced the enjoyment of Chum Lee’s Greatest Hits – a compilation of past workouts’ hits and busts. Enjoy. Conditions: 38 degrees Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: Mosey to behind the school for Circle Merkins on the tractor tires: – put feet on tire and hands on ground for decline merkins – keeping at …
Time to pump some blocks and bricks and forget all this running business (at least until the very end). Say, where’s Brickhouse? Conditions: 63 degrees – not too bad Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: If you’re familiar with the weight room exercise “21” (curling dumbbells, barbell, or whatever weight for 21 repetitions), then you have the …
Time for a little pigskin fun as we all look forward to the Gilbert vs. Batesburg-Leesville game tomorrow night. We’ve decided to play the game in advance and determine whom the real winner is… Smokehouse or Tomahawk Conditions: The field was a little damp due to the sprinklers running. Whatever. Disclaimer Prayer The Thang: At …
