7 PAX claimed their first victory of the day by beating back the warmth of the fartsack and sounds of thunder storms. They dominated the Gloom with a Thunder of their own. They didn’t use excuses of “Tapering” or weather. They simply GOT. IT. DONE. Conditions: Soggy ground, dry skies …

In 1930 an American physiologist named Royal H. Burpee developed the Burpee test as a part of his PhD thesis…at least according to Wikipedia. Millions of people in the years since have come to rue the day Dr. Burpee had this brilliant idea, but it has helped us all to #getbetter. This is YHC’s least …
YHC issued a challenge to downtown Columbia pax to come out and join the Hammer faithful for this morning’s workout. McLovin and Hee Haw answered the call as did 13 Hammer regulars and 1 FNG. YHC would have loved to have seen more Columbia pax who don’t make the regular trip to hammer, but that …

9 folks expected an easy workout this morning, assuming YHC had just been sleeping in during the recent cold months. Some might have still found it easy, but it was slightly unique nonetheless. Conditions: 62 and just right. 3 degrees colder would have required an audible Q swap. The Thang: Warm up SSH x 30 …
8 pax emerged from the fog on this gloomy Tuesday morning. Luckily no last minute changes occured but YHC still had to prep for back to back Qs. Big props to RA last week for taking over in my absence. Conditions : 60 and super foggy. The Thang : Warm Up: SSH x 25 IC Slow …
A while back, Collar instituted the dueling Q at Hammer based off of Battle and how each Q takes his best shot at the pax for 30 minutes before handing off to the next Q. The dueling Q has become a great workout opportunity because it changes up the routine and allows the Q to …
YHC fancies himself as more of a runner than a boot-camper. But Collar must have wanted to change that so, without consulting YHC, I found myself added to the list of Hammer Qs. For YHC’s VQ. Yes, you read that right. Somehow YHC has slipped through the cracks. But no more. 10 pax and YHC …
