  • The CatFrac – from Fracsac

    YHC arrived at the Renaissance to find Catfish ready to roll. Catfish and YHC decided to split the Q duties. At the last second Gabrielle rolled in to make it a party!

    Catfish took the warmup on the steps of NOMA with some regular routines and 20 x 8 count Body builders.

    Off to the side of NOMA for a murderous set of calf raises and such.

    YHC took over by heading to the front of NOMA for insane DirtyMacDuece. Each round started with either burpees or 8 count body builders. Lap takes you around NOMA.

    End with 5 x Sunday mornings!

    Coffeteria rocked to celebrate a great start to Easter.

  • Sudden Change at the Renaissance – from Triple Shift

    With no Q on the sheet I assumed that it would be a grab bag for leadership. When I arrived, I found out Heisenberg was signed up but he never showed up so I took it. I gave the disclaimer and we ran to the foundry to warm up instead of facing the bacon. Once we arrived at the foundry, we did some exercies to warm up and then headed to the path for a burpee mile. All the PAX performed 5 burpees and then ran for one minute. The front runners (Catfish) would plank up for the six when the one minute was up. Once everyone arrived where Catfish was planking, we would perform 5 burpees and then run for one minute. We did that for an entire mile!

    Once we got back to the foundry, we did some flexed arm hangs then hangs and then Mary. With 10 minutes left, we ran to the back of NOMA to do the traditional Sunday Mornings and them back to the flag. We welcomed FNG Drift (Backed Up’s son) and closed out with the countoff, namerama, and COT. Special prayers to F3 Alpharetta (Atlanta) where a PAX member lost their life skiing with another F3 brother.

  • Heavy Stations with Burpees – from Fracsac

    YHC arrived at the Renaissance to find Vagabond completing his community service by picking up trash left on the steps of NOMA. With battle gear offloaded at the fountain, it looked like it would be 2 at the Reni, until 3 other pax came in hot. It was a solid beat down festival!

    Disclaimer given, then mosey to the NOMA steps to face the bacon.

    Warmup was typical. Moroccan Night Club dancing made the bacon sizzle!

    The Thang

    Mosey towards the big lake track for 5 minutes EMOM x 10 burpees.

    Mosey back to the fountain to put the battle gear to use. 5 stations:
    1 – Coupon triceps
    2 – Coupon Squarls
    3 – Burpees
    4 – jump rope
    5 – Ruck sack or Sweetness Run to bridge and back (timer)
    Rinse and Repeat

    Finished off with Sunday mornings in the back of NOMA.
