On Friday afternoon, as my thoughts strayed from work, and found their way to my F3 brothers, I noted Bushwhacker’s bat signal that the Lakefront had no Q for the following day. Unacceptable! I leapt at the opportunity to lead such finely honed machines and volunteered to take the proverbial …
Pax of 7 were met with humidity and mugginess at the A1C today. Undeterred and unplanned, pax gave a hastily thrown together Tabata a go to celebrate the last day of school for the year! Warmup (all IC, between 10x and 20x) – Sealjacks – Cherry Pickers – Mummy Kicks …
21 PAX posted for the fourth semi-annual and second official Northshore H8! which, like Mary Poppins, was practically perfect in every way. The weather was great, the course was marked clearly and the PAX were motivated. Plus everyone knew that whatever we did it would be at least .01% better …
In a selfish attempt to slow multiple PAX down for the upcoming H8, YHC will need to wait 24 hours to see if his evil plan plays to his favor.. Then again all the men that posted on this wonderfully cool gloom at the A1c have proven time and time …
While I realize YHC is not the first to use that phrase when describing a pseudo-HIIT beatdown, it was certainly appropriate as a superstar pax of 6 knocked on Granny’s door this morning under pleasant (albeit warming) temps. Warmup (all IC, 12x to 20x) Seal jacks Grass grabbers Self love …
Pax of 7 had a party at Granny’s this morning. After HogsBreath noted a lack of prior week participation, the call went out and was answered this week! Party started promptly at 5:15 (there were no fashionably late arrivals) with: Warmup (All IC, between 10x and 20x) – sealjacks – …
We definitely should have had more 10 counts at the beatdown. Since there were none, we hammered through 16 sets of Tabata (30 seconds with 10 seconds rest) and about 40 minutes with the cinder block coupon. Alternate cinder block reps with an assortment of other reps (mostly pull ups). …
We were heroes, if just for one day. YHC was sore all over, even without a weekend beatdown. Sleeping with your shoulder driven into the earth for 2 nights can put you on the pain train. So getting back to the basics at the Marsh was in order, after what …
Pax of 4 ventured to Granny’s in Goldilocks weather (not too hot, not too cold) to see how much sweat YHC could drum up. Early mumble revolve around basketball, podcasts, 80s rock, and how Soundgarden has been around for almost 30 years now. Warm-up (all IC) SSH (20) Cherry pickers …
The Northshore beatdown on Holy Saturday was themed around Dante’s Inferno. A group of 18 Pax, including a guest appearance from the Southshore’s SOGO, descended upon the Lakefront for 9 Circles of Hell. Warmup exercises were completed in reverse cadence (4-3-2-1) to align with the date (4/3/21) and to remind …
