The PAX didn’t know what to think when YHC stepped to the middle today. They slowly found out that neither did YHC. Conditions: Dark, clear, cool The Thang: Circle up for disclaimer and prayer. Mosey to the back parking lot for COP. Imperial Walkers 10 IC TTT 10 IC Windmills 10 IC LBAC 10 IC …
7 PAX joined YHC for what is now known as the most unprepared Q of 2021. Truth is, that when [an unnamed PAX] reached out about Q’ing, YHC pushed the date out as far as YHC believed [unnamed PAX] would allow thinking “oh, that’s weeks away; plenty of time to come up with something.” Well, …
8 PAX descended upon the hallowed grounds of TurningPoint to see what was meant by “guest Q” in the week leading up to today. Those that were expecting a non-TP-regular were sadly disappointed (cough, Booster) when Pick Axe strode to the middle of the circle to give the disclaimer. Then, we prayed, and took off. …
YHC agreed to take the Q with the promise of something fun. 5 other PAX (well, 4 PAX and one 2.0 that likely didn’t have a choice) decided to join YHC to find out what that meant. After a disclaimer that would make Dredd proud, we moseyed to the top of the back hill for instructions …
When YHC told the AOQ he’d Q today, he thought that surely someone else would step up. Booster then said if we had more than 5 PAX, he’d take it. Due to some unfortunate dietary choices, Booster was unable to attend today’s festivities. So, YHC, being the fine, upstanding, handsome (and humble) man he is …
1 PAX posted for YHC’s first workout in a while due to uncooperative back muscles. The original Q was out of commission due to undisclosed reasons, so after an awkward disclaimer (YHC knew all that already), YHC took the reigns and took off for the Publix parking lot and back. Kettlebells had a cameo. Thankfully, …
YHC had noticed that there wasn’t much cardio in the bootcamps lately (at least not the ones YHC has attended) so despite YHC’s documented, certified disdain for running, cardio was added into today’s festivities. Conditions: cool and dry in YHC’s garage Disclaimer and prayer The Thang: Squats x 15 OYO, Imperial Walkers x 15 OYO, …
As a fitness enthusiast, when the call went out for a substitute Q for Crusade today, YHC naturally took it. After all, what’s the worst that could happen? Thankfully, 8 other PAX joined YHC, and ran <- that way. The Thang: Circle up; count; pray; run that way for 22ish minutes and then come back. …
9 others (eventually) joined YHC for all sorts of fun and excitement today at TP. YHC arrived early and set out blocks and had a “a spring in his step” all of which prompted questions of YHC’s true identity. Fear not, good PAX of TP, ‘twas I, verily. Conditions: Clear and cool with a slight …
8 PAX showed up for a turkey workout that all our beautiful turkeys should have been working on throughout this Thanksgiving season. The front 4 turkeys started with a strong calorie burning Ruck to cut the fat with Pocahontas. The collective group then began with working on all possible flight options by working on our …
Stop me if you’ve heard this one. Wapner comes to a workout. Wapner talks the whole time. Wapner may or may not do all the exercises. “Modifying,” Wapner says. Well, that wasn’t today, sports fans. YHC was there, and YHC did everything that was called. Conditions: a little humid, but otherwise perfect The Thang: Circle …
11 other PAX joined YHC for an hour of fun and excitement. We rucked the usual areas toward blue Lowe’s and back via the hilly route. For the kettlebell portion, it was dealer’s choice with a twist. YHC would call an exercise and a count. The next PAX could call any exercise, but the count …
8 PAX came out to tread at Tread with YHC. We rucked as usual and did some dealer’s choice KBs. Exercises included KB swings, curls for the Pearls, lawn mower starters, that dumb thing where you put the KB between your legs and lunge, Simbas (sit-ups with a KB chest press at the top), and …
YHC was at a loss as to what to do today, but when a new group who wasn’t there last time we toured the parking lot showed up, YHC knew what to do. Conditions: Near perfect; cool and clear; decent amount of humidity [that’s a technical term, for all you non-weather savvy folks] The Thang: …
6 PAX posted [mostly] on time and ready to take on whatever it was that YHC dreamed up. Given that there were storms in the forecast, YHC can [almost] forgive more PAX for not showing. Also, YHC is known for difficult workouts, so YHC understands. Conditions: Near perfect; cool and clear; decent amount of humidity …
Today was supposed to be the PT test, but due to the Gauntlet, the PT test was rescheduled. So, for the 3rd time in a row, YHC Qed at TP. Thanks to the other 4 PAX that showed up and blistered the weinke (that IS NOT what she said). The workout may look similar to …
YHC’s Thursday Q was a crowd pleaser, so YHC planned to do it again. However, overnight rain threw a wrench into that plan. So, thanks to the other 5 PAX that endured an off the cuff Q that was “fun” I guess. Conditions: Upper 60s, overcast, 1000% humidity The Thang: Circle up here for COP …
So, it’s the week(s) of the Gauntlet for 2019. Since YHC needs to be home early most mornings during the school year, what better time to enjoy some fellowship with the men of TurningPoint (after all, we all know YHC isn’t here for the workout). It’s been said that YHC likes to run his mouth. …
YHC was tapped (for some reason) to lead the officially official #Tread launch. Some of us XLed for an extra 30mins, and due to someone’s miscalculations (not naming any names), YHC did the disclaimer and prayer on the fly. We also introduced the new technique of “circle shaming” latecomers whereby the PAX circle the late …

16 PAX arose to find out what all this #HaleysComet talk was about for the long awaited return of YHC Qing at TP. They were not deterred by foggy conditions, a new parking location, or the fact that we had several regulars DR. Thanks for a great morning guys, and YHC hopes you got a …
8 PAX answered the call for the #Wapikaze today and shook off the surprise pond also known as Lake Midway on the soccer field and prevented a #Slopikaze from happening. As usual, the PAX pushed hard, and (YHC isn’t naming any names, but) one PAX even told YHC he was the best timekeeper ever. Conditions: …
Alliteration aside, I really did have a great workout planned. Too bad my Weinke decided to take flight on the way to Turning Point. #Cobains to the Adopt-A-Highway crew(s) along Midway Rd. for the strangely worded item you’ll soon find. YHC remembered (mostly) what was on the #Weinke and so 11 PAX stumbled through the …
6 PAX posted for a jaunt to the Dam and back. Not much to this one – it was 30 min out and 30 min back from Pilgrim Lutheran Church towards the Dam. We made it almost to the split and were able to get Swanson a fishing license in the process. Felt like we …
Written by Fast Casual; posted by Wapner Morning Had a very comfortable and cool morning for my first Q. A little excited than nervous as I saw some brothers from graveyard showing up to support me along with our regulars from turning point. Started with a quick thankful prayer and then divided into two groups. …
Conditions: Upper 60’s / Low 70’s and humid Route: Begin at the RBHS Stadium entrance, proceed up Cemetery Hill to the Super Spooky Woods Trail and continue around behind school and along Perimeter Road back up the hill beside the practice field and back to Cemetery Hill. Rinse and repeat minus the Super Spooky Woods …

Despite the possibility of YHC being on the Q twice in a week being a sign of the apocalypse (as pointed out by Quisenberry), 10 PAX arose out of the fartsack to put their rucks through their paces in the unusually brisk (for this week) Easter morning gloom through the hills of Whiteford. Today’s route …
