9 men showed up to get better this dark gloom for the annual Merkin Trap. It was so dark YHC was worried about seeing the Wiki if needed. But this has been done before, and besides making some cadence mistakes, went well with no Wiki needed. Conditions: near perfect, a …
75 degrees to start this morning, for a split IPC / non-IPC beatdown at the lakefront. Warmup – there was one, but Jose had YHC distracted with discussion of soft hands, tailbone skin, and defibrillators. Thang 7 for IPC week 2 (lots of running, modified burpees and merkins) and 5 …
YHC wanted to share with you about a fantastic morning with the Pax at the Mandeville Trailhead. The session was invigorating, starting with a 15-minute yoga session with a vinyasa flow. The energy remained high as they moved on to step-ups supersetted with incline push-ups and step-ups supersetted with shoulder …
That was the first song up on the playlist this Tuesday morning and it really hit the nail on the head. “Good lord I feel like I’m dying,” hasn’t rang more true than it did on this mild morning at Granny’s (82* with 90% humidity), with the cinderblocks awaiting us …
With YHC out of town for the Scramble and his gym buddy Tanked flying out to Wisconsin Friday for his qualifier, I decided to scoop up Tuesday and Friday (A1c) on the Q sheet. Not to worry if anyone is looking for an opportunity to lead a beatdown, as Wednesday, …
Not sure about the rest of F3 nation, but the Scramble here on the Northshore definitely had milder conditions on this Gloom. With it came the return of Waterpik.. For those that may not know, during his MVP performance 4 weeks back, showing out as the Northshore’s very own Messi, …
Following a long rehabilitation after shoulder surgery, during which YHC did ABSOLUTELY nothing overly strenuous that Chewy would frown upon, it’s back to the fire department. And, of course, that means then Lakefront is due for another Fire Fighter Challenge… this time Tabata style! Our own friendly neighborhood Steve graciously …
The pax met up for a beat down last Tuesday at Granny’s house: Warm up: SSH x 20 IC IW x 20 IC My climbers x 20 IC SL bridges x 10 IC JF x 10 IC Balance work: Y balance UE x 10 each Y balance LE x 10 …
What would you say to your brother, who was 2 weeks out from shoulder surgery, when you pull up to an AO and see him standing there in standard maroon hoodie winter-wear and padded compound sling? If you were our own resident physical therapist Chewy, you would say, “YOU’RE AN …
Right at 67 degrees and muggy for our first trip to Granny’s in the new year, where we welcomed the returns of JV and MeatSweats, as well as semi-regular Chewy and Site Q Steve. Back when network TV was still somewhat of a thing, I remember NBC ran a series …
