“The Thang”: 15 PAX (a few good men) got up and fought of the snooze demons to make themselves better today. They came to smell what the Darla is cooking! Conditions were moist and humid…Time to bring it on! Warmup/CoP: After disclaimer, Indian run/jog around the Depot (guessing about 800 meters) to wake the body …
YHC hasn’t Q’d at CAT in a while and also had to make up for missing his Q last month. Navy Bean put YHC in an EH and when one of the nicest guys in F3 Lexington does that, you have to respond. Our numbers were a little light today, but we put in some …

It was a beautiful morning to get better at CAT. 10 hard chargers ascended on its gloomy confines this morning. Good enough numbers for a STAR from the Nantan! Nice work, Men! YHC always wants the PAX to get their monies worth when they make the effort to be there. A whole lot of effort …

YHC was so excited about his Q at CAT this morning… he barely slept. OK, it was either the excitement or the inability to breathe due to congestion… probably excitement. In any event, YHC was able to introduce the men of CAT to a 50 merkin starter, “you’re already in the position” calls for arm …

….You have no idea what to call what you did? Over the weekend while on a ruck, YHC had the notion that he should start planning his Q for today. The thought of a Super Bowl themed workout immediately came to mind, and as everyone who has ever planned a Q knows, sometimes your mind …
I’d like to say that CAT had so many pax show up this morning that there weren’t enough bricks to go around, so we had to improvise. That is partially true. However, the real truth is, we used to have a LOT of bricks, that have somehow disappeared. So, when the 8th man showed up today, …
This is what happens when you run out of bricks……Read More »
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 …

8 pax dropped the drp for a early morning beatdown. Recovery was not on the weinke this morning and Moist made sure YHC knew it. YHC is always honored to come and lead such a close group of guys. If you haven’t been to CAT, your missing out. These guys pushed hard this morning and …
A little over 4 years ago, several things happened all at once that led YHC to F3. Not far removed from moving back to Lexington from Spartanburg, I wanted to find my place somewhere between work and family. Sure I had some friends from high school and we had started going to our church, but …

As stated many times before, one of the best things about the #CAT5 AMRAP, is the flexibility in the layout and direction of it. One thing that never changes is that it is hard and it will suck. The conditions were CAT5 like today with wind and rain. We took advantage of the opportunity and …

When Moist and YHC came up with the idea of having an AMRAP for CAT, Moist said right from the get-go, that he wanted us to have flexibility. When asked to clarify, he said he had this idea of calling it CAT5 like a hurricane, with the ability to change directions, or do different things. …
A couple requests to Q, scheduling issues, Kid Moves, etc etc YHC landed at CAT this morning, and unfamiliar place. The wind was crisp and the PAX were ready.

Earlier in the week, YHC sent out a message to the pax of #CAT that today’s workout would be ruck friendly. I had no idea at the time what we would do, only that ruck’s would be welcome. Sometime on Friday, it came to me. Read on for details. ***Conditions: Clear and 49*** ***Prayer & …

YHC was struggling to pull together a solid workout after the introduction of the C.A.T.’s signature workout, the CAT5. I wanted to offer up something that wouldn’t be a let down to the PAX on this damp morning, something worthy of fighting off the fartsack. I hope I delivered. YHC was never involved with a …
6 CAT faithfuls did not let the threat of rain, running through puddles, or a two hour delay keep them from getting better today! As is almost always the case the rain ceased a few mins before BC and left clear skies for the fun! Weather: 70 and damp The Beatdown: Slowzy to the LOPAC …
