Despite the usual grumblings, 9 men (was almost 10) saw this morning’s conditions as a great opportunity to get up before dawn and get in a little exercise. We found ways to get in some respectable work and stay relatively dry all things considered. A dueling Q was on tap between YHC and brother Chaser. …
Conditions: 60s and Moist Last time the PAX did the PT test at Hammer, YHC was doing a little reading on the test and so forth. Apparently, the PT test is being replaced by the new Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT). YHC took it upon himself to investigate further. This started the gears turning, and …
Even though it might have appeared that YHC was without a plan, trust me, YHC thought way too long about this one. I even had additional stuff planned but we ran out of time. YHC is always intimidated to lead the pax in a workout but its always rewarding. Thanks for showing up. Conditions: cool …
October 2012 was the beginning of it all in Columbia. There wasn’t a #BRICKPILE or shovel flag or many men downtown that even had a clue what F3 was or better yet, what it could mean in our lives. It has helped many Sad Clowns (YHC being one of them) get off the couch and …

On a dark and Gloomy morning, 23 men converged upon an asphalt parking lot unsure of what was to come. There was talk of a short workout and coffee. Yes, the coffeeteria, a virtual unknown experience for most boot campers in F3 Columbia these days. The stories about coffeteria from the runners were legendary, encapsulating …
13 PAX posted to Hammer for a little fun. YHC traded off Q responsibilities with McNugget at BATTLE so it was appropriate we bring a little heat to the boys at HAMMER. Mainly because they expect it and can handle it. Conditions: 74 and muggy! Head to the block pile and 1/2 of the PAX …
12 PAX posted to the gloom this morning looking for a beatdown and they attacked the workout like only the Hammer Pax can. The Conditions Humid and Smokey The Thang Two words – The Murph The PAX were able to break it up however they wanted but had to get in two miles, 100 pull-ups, …
