55 degrees and chilly drizzle greeted Super Ants JV and YHC this morning for a few rounds of 7s. Plenty of Raider Pride to go around. Warmup (primarily IC, 15 to 20x each) – SSHs – Arm circles – Hillbillies – Toe touches – Cherry pickers – Mosey 400 yards-ish …
YHC is a big fan of finding little things to be thankful for every day. Something new or different. Something unexpected. Something unique. Anything to keep me plugged into how blessed we are. Blessings like a bathroom at Grandma’s house. Like a cool, crisp 43 degree morning. Like lunch dates …
7 PAX and a visitor to close at COT graced the YHC this Gloom for some card work..The face cards were a plenty, if only that could happen at the Blackjack table.. Warmup 15IC Toe Touches, Hillbillies, SSH, Air presses, Cherry pickers, Imperial walkers and Butt kicks.. Thang Moseyed through …
A brisk temperature of 48 degrees (still not cold enough for sleeves) and a clear sky greeted a pax of 5 this morning for an organized, balanced, and repetitive beatdown that of course incorporated number patterns because that is how YHC maintains a small measure of control in an otherwise …

Sometimes the most fun and effective way to get some something done is to take it back to when we were kids, when it seemed like everything was simpler. That was the goal this morning at Grandma’s. Grover owns the “Duck Duck Goose” beatdown, and I still haven’t found a …
YHC was taught in 2nd or 3rd grade that if you want to attract eyeballs to your writing, you need a hook: a catchy title or an opening sentence or paragraph that draws attention. I may not always be successful, but that’s my goal with these. I had no hook …
The other day I yawned and hurt myself. If that sounds like a poor set up to a Rodney Dangerfield joke, it isn’t. More of a morality tale, really – just another true life example of what happens to your body when you stop posting regularly. Things have gotten so …
Warmup: 20 x SSH, MC, IW, Peter Parkers, Windmills – all IC. The Thang: EMOM – first minute, 5 reps of merkin variant; next minute, 15-25 reps of other upper body exercise, all OYO. Next round, increase merkin variant reps by 5. Got through two rounds and started the third …
