Solid!
It was a beautiful morning for a SOLID workout. DISCLAIMER, let’s mosey. On the way to the Foundry we found some grass next to a pond to warmup: -SSH x 30 IC -IW x 30 IC -Mt Climbers x 30 IC -Arm Circles x 30 IC (15 ea dir) -J-Lo’s …
Tool
Counter clockwise in the gloom
A surprisingly chilly Monday morning greeted the PAX at Pontiff playground. YHC had checked the weather and must have mistook the “4” in 40s for a “7” in 70s. Marlin, of course, was ready for the weather – dressed in full winter gear. Clock struck 5:30, and 8 PAX took …

Super Blue Blood Moon – Foundry Edition
The Super Blue Blood Moon was to occur this morning. So I polled the men of the Foundry: begin the beat down, or watch the lunar eclipse??? They voted for both! Disclaimer, and off we go. We moseyed to the racetrack for a warm-up lap. 10 burpees, run 100 meters …
I am speed!
For my first Q at the 6-10 stomp, I decided to do something a little different. A track workout instead of going out to visit the missing monuments. As Lightning McQueen’s mantra was heard in my head, “I am speed, I am speed, I am speed…” we headed to …
A Bit Warmer 610 Stomp
I originally wanted to take the route over the Wisner overpass and do some “hill” work, but from initial drive by Monday night, way too much construction and hazards….. Last thing I want to be responsible for is an injury to Rudy disrupting the Marathon aspiration. So we take the …
Bear Crawl and Bicep Bonanza
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. …
F3 – Frozen Foundry Fools
What do you do when you sign up in advance to Q a workout then wake up to 22 degree temp, stiff north wind, and ground covered in ice? Do you back out…do you call it off…blame it on the frozen car doors or icy windshield…maybe claim one of your …
Superfecta at The Uptowner
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 …
Rock City Trifecta
Solid showing on Monday at Pontiff, despite the rain. Eight men braved the iffy forecast to get the usual fix of F3 at Rock City. The scheduled Q was out with the flu (or maybe Saints game hangover???) so a few of us stepped in to sub. Here’s what went …
