We had a nice breeze Monday morning when we arrived at the UNO Human Performance Center for the newly dubbed Chamber of Horrors. The instructions were simple – do the Iron Pax week 1 challenge, consisting of an aggregate 150 yards of broad jumping, 150 yards of bear crawling, 150 …
There were no holes-in-one, but this is two backblasts-in-one… FIRST: Typical turnout at Wolfpack Mountain with a sub-krewe of ruckers showing up for their training. Those compact packs easily outweigh a fully stocked golf bag. Serious respect. Quick warm-up with SSH, mountain climbers, grass grabbers, and then mosey to WPM. …
On 29 Aug 19, the pax of AO F3 Westbank called Master Melvin celebrated its 1 year anniversary. What started with a core group of men drinking beer and seeing visions, resulted in a year’s worth of great memories, hard workouts, and good friendships. To celebrate the 1 year anniversary, …
So the time had finally come. The great scepter of Q had been passed to YHC, for the first time ever – with wise words from the Q’s before, and much great advice, pomp and circumstance; I had been called to lead and could not refuse. Humbly, I accepted. And …
Wolfpack Mountan…First Wolfpack Q in a while. YHC intended to make it memorable with the goal of 5 “mountains” (in NOLA-below-sea-level parlance). If the mountain will not come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain. WARMUP Standard disclaimer this morning plus a reminder to sweep the six for this running workout. The Pax then moseyed onto …

It was a typical summer Sunday morning in front of NOMA. We had our biggest showing yet at the Renaissance and it was the first time I q’d that wasn’t the stomp. All in all it went really well…even a little tougher than I originally thought. Started off with the …
A disclaimer? No, that’s just what we have to do at the beginning of these beatdowns. So, with a disclaimer, we are off! Mosey to lawn in front of Loyola for warm up with a little help from my friends! Alternating Open Gates IC X20 Imperial Walkers with help from …
YHC was expecting a small group at the Master Melvin, but word obviously spread far and wide about the Q, and 7 eager Pax were in attendance, in desire of a solid beat down. Plant the flag, give a brief disclaimer, and off to the Warm up: SSH IC x …
The Tuesday crowd at the Stomp has exploded recently. YHC saw an opportunity to take the Q and bring a little something extra to the AO. Since everyone loves Burpees, YHC knew that incorporating them in a way not done before would be received with joy! YHC was not disappointed! …
