Looking for ideas, YHC was stunned to realize that April 30th was the 60th birthday of the original Bad Boy: Isaiah Thomas of the Detroit Pistons. This definitely made me feel old. How can he be 60 already? Surely I cannot really be that old? But alas, things are what …
Mothership is the AO where I met other PAX outside of Uptown. I miss those days where we were averaging 20 plus PAX. But because of COVID, as leaders in our community, we added new AOs to thin out the numbers of PAX at each beatdown. Well, 10 strong PAX …
Last week at the 610 stomp I was reminded by Saban about how slight variations in routine can make a big impact on your mind and body. Drag yourself up at 5am, get to your usual spot, warm up and get ready for a regular beatdown involving running and/or burpees. …
10 men arrived to continue their lifelong journey to impact their families and community for the better with a strength building workout at the Wally Run/Weagle. Six high impact men took off for the traditional Wally Run. Four men remained for the low impact Weagle. YHC ran, so he was …
Today was back to basics with a traditional Foundry workout with circuits and pull-ups. 15 men braved the cool December air. We even had a @Rudy sighting in City Park on a Wednesday. The usual disclaimer and off we go. We moseyed to the Childrens Museum for the warm-up COP: …
YHC was out of town, far from town actually. While working 200 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico on a boat that was running from hurricanes, Catfish stepped up and took YHC’s scheduled Q. Upon reading his backblast, YHC felt motivated to bring something different and challenging. Spoiler alert, …
As most of the PAX may be aware, YHC is a wee bit of an ND fan. And today’s a big day – #1 Clemson coming to town. As most of the PAX are also aware, and happy to remind YHC, Notre Dame does not exactly have a stellar record …
For the Q I sported a fancy, shiny gold uniform with a big nasty black wig, red headband / wristbands, plus converse tennie’s, and frankenstein tube socks. I apologized to the pax for having to look at my sweaty ridiculousness for an hour. Also wanna give credit to Medulla Oblongata …
Pontiff Playground maintenance crew must have known Uptowners were loitering in Metry. The gate to our AO spot was locked. But that didn’t stop the persistent PAX… the train tried…. running full speed at 5:25 a.m. …. blocking few PAX to the AO. But regardless, everyone managed to make it …
Conditions: Humid, 74 degrees, Humidity 95%, Wind 8mph from ENE Warm-up: Mosey from the flag to the start. Warm-up on your own. No time for SSH or Grass Grabbers or J-Los, we’ve got work to do. The Thang: The H8! F3 NOLA’s overly complicated, semi-annual, feat of strength. The stick …
