7 #HIM showed up at the Fly on an unusually nice, Summer Sunday morning for a Sweaty Bells workout. YHC has been thinking a lot about functional fitness lately. How can we bring more functional fitness to the PAX? Well, the Kettle Bells provide a unique opportunity. I’m thinking Farmer’s …
Twenty something men assembled in the sweltering early morning gloom. Peaches stumbled by looking for some sort of love connection supposed to be taking place at public restroom #3. Undaunted, he decided to cast his lot with us so off we went. OG Warmup SSH X 28 Reverse arm circles …
A disclaimer? No, that’s just what we have to do at the beginning of these beatdowns. So, with a disclaimer, we are off! Mosey to lawn in front of Loyola for warm up with a little help from my friends! Alternating Open Gates IC X20 Imperial Walkers with help from …

Much like my kids summer work for school some things are just hard to get done and 1/2-assed when they do get done. Apologies to school teachers and thorough backblast authors. Warm-up: Not really sure anymore. Combination of jacks and maybe grass grabbers. Warm up 2.0: Jog-sprint combo through the …
Hurricane Barry was hovering over the coast of Louisiana on Saturday. Not knowing if we were going to have Sweaty Bells on Sunday morning, YHC and Willie were having some whiskeys at their friend’s, Paw Patrol’s, house on the previous night. After many rounds of scotch and bourbon, YHC looked …
I was about to go to bed on Tuesday night but I decided to check the Q in the AM and man was I disappointed to see that no one had signed up yet. So I took the Q and planned a run free beatdown in prep for the Gnarly …
