When YHC HC’d to Q Crypt a few weeks back he had no clue what the weather forecast would be. Then again, history shows that the “professional weather men” had no clue either.

YHC woke up this morning not knowing what to expect when he went out into the gloom. Would it be rainy, snowy, freezing, etc…There had to be something going on right? So out of the fartsack he went and expecting to see some terrible weather, it was nothing short of meh. A slight drizzle with …

17 pax including 1 FNG rolled out of the #Fartsack this morning to join YHC for his first Q at Crypt.

15 PAX joined YHC at Crypt this morning for a physical AND useless trivia beatdown. The thang below reflects the ‘base’ exercises and the number of each.

YHC would like to start by saying he is lucky, 2 weeks ago YHC put his name down to Q crypt on Jan, 8th, not knowing about the freezing cold temps that would take over the midlands that day. Once YHC realized about the temp he got really excited, he scrapped the workout that he …
YHC woke up again before 0500 and slowly fought back those dastardly covers in the fartsack. He had been doing some research the night before looking for a few newer exercises to try out with the pax, it almost appeared like he was studying. Studying isn’t fun…or is it? Well it is when you’re studying …

14 faithful Pax rose to the frosty early morning gloom of the Crypt for a brick-heavy beatdown delivered lovingly by YHC.

Unfortunately for YHC there were several other mumblechatter …
Great Day at the Crypt. It stated with several complements from the Pax to the Q about not being late today. Some guys just cannot forgive ONE MINUTE. We then proceeded to the workout where we were entertained by Blind Side for the full 45 minutes, does that dude ever just do the work without …
The Pax this morning. That’s who. Completing the GoRuck Challenge 2 weeks ago made YCH realize he needed to work on upper body strength. So what better way to do that than to Q a workout focusing on the upper body. YHC is partaking in the 10,000 merkin challenge this month so merkins were on …
15 PAX adventured out of the fartsack and into the thick gloom for a brick beatdown. Luckily, we didn’t need to take any water breaks since all you had to do was take a deep breath to get a mouth full of water. YHC hadn’t played with bricks in awhile, so he figured why not and …
10 pax posted for Crypt in the early morning gloom for a last minute Q switcheroo made possible by Quarantine’s unfortunate encounter with a mad surgeon who somehow managed to install a baseball in his ankle while he was completely awake.

Last time YHC led a Gamecock-centric bootcamp, Texas A&M embarrassed us at Williams Brice so I decided against theming this workout. Didn’t even wear anything garnet.

If there is one thing I have come the know with F3, it is the brotherhood that has developed. YHC had the Q at Turning Point, but needed an earlier start due to family obligations. My brother Blue Screen came through for me and we pulled the Ole’ Switcheroo. Those that may have been expecting …

Teamwork was the name of the game and seeing YHC read, somewhere reliable, “three strands are not easily broken” — three seemed like a good number to use. YHC promised to keep the numbers simple and not let #Stride breakout again, like the last two Q’s, so we only got to visit 3 of the …

Posted on Behalf of Simon Says: After arriving at the AO this morning, it dawned on YHC that it’s far better for a group of grown men to hang out at a high school at 4:50AM instead of 4:50PM. One option shows commitment. The other is just creepy. YHC arrived a little earlier than usual in …
