Welcome to another edition of R.E.D. Friday. There were 6 partakers this day and half of us were sporting red. #overachievers. Speaking of overachieving, Triple Shift hauled in kettlebells of various poods for the workout. No need to do our kettlebell swings with drainage rocks this morning. #Thanks4ThePoods Warm-up SSH …
Conditions: Overcast and 61. Perfect morning to get some work in. I showed up about 12 minutes early to find Hand Grenada had beaten me to the AO. He helped me set up the “equipment” for today’s Hero WOD. (Thanks to Triple Shift for the buckets of water he stashed …
A Pax of 6 arrived at the Uptowner for a morning of exercise without running. The usual disclaimer and off we go. The plan for today was Tabata with 60 seconds of exercise, and 10 seconds of rest. As it turns out, 60 seconds of exercise is harder than I …
It’s been gloomy this week. A good resbit before the Turkish steam bath that is soon to arrive. QHC sees a lonely silhouette of a PAX ready to go. It’s Hand-Grenada, our FNG from Monday gratis Walleye. He’s nervously peering into the chasm for the pumping station into Pontiff. It’s …
Hawg sent around a text the night before that there was no Q for the morning Post. QHC stepped up to the plate two weeks ago and didn’t want to hog the honor, but wondered who would do so. As YHC meandered over to the AO, he saw a familiar …
Get after YHC, cuz he’s waiting too long to post back blasts and now can’t remember squat–other than it was achy. So after a disclaimer, THE THANG. Warm up with some SSHs, Low Slow Squats, Slow Sun Gods, and surely someone on our faces. Then gets some rocks to mosey …
Low turnout at The Uptowner this morning. YHC had let Triple Shift know that I would cover for him as he went to Wolfpack Mountain chasing celebrity and fame. Where was the rest of the pax? Was it the unexpected rain, the empty promise of some TV time at Wolfpack …
A no-frills yet solid morning was enjoyed by five men at The Uptowner on Friday. The Q slot was empty the day before so YHC hopped on it and threw together some ideas to bring the sweat. The focus was stretching, core work, and showing some love to the biceps. …
YHC committed to Q four days in a row this week, and the fourth day, or the Superfecta as we’ll call it, had me up earlier than usual. 45 minutes before the alarm sounded kind of earlier. One would think that would indicate an early arrival at the AO, but …
GroupMe mumblechatter Thurs pm: who’s Q at The Uptowner? Having vowed to avoid diarrhea of the smartphone, YHC figured someone would respond and step up, but it was getting late, so he never checked further. Alarm at 5ish Fri am: ggrrr! To fartsack or not to fartsack, that is the …
