Roots

When planning today’s beatdown, YHC decided it might be a good idea to get in touch with our roots. With that in mind, YHC revisited the roots of the Milestone March. Of course Bushwacker, ever the commentator, accurately pointed out that YHC was not around when the roots were planted …

Am I A Masochist?

Something that Turbo said a couple of months back kind of has stuck with me. He said something like (paraphrasing) ‘I’m not sure there are many people who like putting themselves through painful workouts, except of course Grundy…’ I laughed it off at the time, but the more I thought …

The Sounds of Silence

It has been awhile since YHC has even thought about a beatdown where no one showed.  Come to think of it, I can pinpoint it to when Cowbell washed ashore this side of the lake.  With Pik consistently posting to the Marsh and Cowbell now consistently posting at Granny’s, you …

When You Gotta Go…

And speaking of beginnings… WARMORAMA x10 IC: Toe Touches Torso Twists Imperial Walkers SSH Windmills THANG The prescribed scramble route …

Circuit court in Session

Recovering from Waterpik’s light rep but high intensity beatdown from the day prior. YHC decided to bring some coupons of his own to the Gipper crew. Arrived at the AO to the sights of Moby, Akbar and Maverick loosening up around the flag. Knowing the PAX would soon swell by …

Granny Clips Coupons

This past weekend, YHC bumped into a friend, T shirt drenched with sweat, who said he had just come from a Cross fit workout. As my friend recounted the workout to me, I realized I could recycle at least part of this cool beatdown at Granny’s on Tuesday. Or, at …
