  • One resolution down, one to go – from Jose10k

    Damn it’s cold but rewarding this morning

  • Speedy came in hot! – from Jose10k

    4 of us ran the 10k, keeping a solid pace for the group. Only to have a flash pass us with a 1.5 miles left. Speedy ran a 6 30 pace to catch us and beat us.( and he ran another mile more than)

  • Burpees, Football, Running, Oh My! – from Bushwacker

    Cold as ballz? Tell that to F3 Fargo. Small crowd? Not likely. F3 Northshore showed up to play. Today we dedicated the beat down to our own Maximus the Marathon Man, Tanked Up, who is running the La Marathon tomorrow aiming to qualify for Boston.

    WARMORAMA

    5burpees OYO
    SSH
    HI KNEES
    BUTT KICKS
    IWs
    5 Burpees
    GOOD MORNINGS
    TOE TOUCHES
    TORSO TWISTS
    5 Burpees

    THANG

    Partnered up and each pair grabbed a football. Mosey to gazebo while passing football back and forth. The partner throwing couldn’t move, and for any dropped passes, both do 5 burpees.

    At gazebo,circled up and did 4 rounds of circle Up/Downs.

    Mosey to shaft in similar fashion.

    Lined up along tree line, P1 stayed put while P2 went out for a pass (dropped passes were 5 Burpees each). While P2 ran to shaft and back, P1 did an exercise, then switch. The exercises included SSH, Mnt Climbers, Freddy Mercurys, Hand Release Merkins, J Los, Flutter Kicks, and more! T claps to Waterpick and Baby Yoda, who connected on some long bombs like Drew Brees and Marques Colston!

    Mosied back to flag again in similar fashion, but this time the Pax honed their strategy to pick up the pace with shorter passes. BONUS, no balls in the frigid lake!!!

    MARY

    Made it back to the flag with 3 minutes to hit some core, much to Duke of Hazard’s chagrin.

    5 Burpees
    20 LBCs
    100 100s
    And planked up waiting for the man of the hour to roll in from a light 2 mile run.

    Nightmare Before Christmas’24 Sunday January 21st 1pm lakefront, bring backpack with 10-40lbs of weight

    JV prayed us out, Byrd and Cowbell were Starskys, joining us at coffeeteria.

    Guys (you know who you are) thanks for letting us play with your ballz this morning!
    Hammer went out of his way to prove that a good beatdown isn’t complete unless someone gets hurt. Ice it up big guy. I hope you feel better soon.
    And speaking of Hammer, if anyone is looking for a nice house in a small, conveniently located sub division (with a hot tub😎) give him a shout.

    Gentleman, thanks for coming out and freezing cheeks with the Wack, and celebrating our own Medicare Machine, and best of luck to him tomorrow!

  • Hakunah Tabata – from Mobydick

    65 degrees? Are you serious? T-shirt and shorts one more time before the weather rolls through. Everyone was happy to enjoy this gorgeous weather. Yes, we know Russo will always wear shorts and a t-shirt. He’s our own Victor Freeze ( a batman character portrayed by the master thespian Arnold Schwarzenegger. The colder it gets, the happier he gets. Moby requested to lead a beatdown to help with his lower back, so it was time for some Tabata. 45 seconds on, 20 seconds off. 6 Exercise: freak nastys, squats, crunches, irkins, jane fondas, and box cutters. Rinse and repeat.

    4 HIMS took the red pill this morning to put in 5 good miles

  • Grant’s Tomb – from Akbar

    45ish and wet as all get out, a slight modification was needed for this gloom. YHC can handle wet or cold, but not both. So instead of sloshing at the Shaft, we headed to Noah’s Ark for Grant’s Tomb. Ulysses S. Grant’s mug adorns our $50 bill, so we moseyed around doing 50 reps with moseys in between – 25 reps on one side, 25 reps on the other.

    Warm Up: SSH, Grass Grabbers, Toe Touches, Mummy Kicks, Self-Love, Arm Circles, High Knees, Butt Kicks x 15IC

    Thang

    Noah’s Ark – 25 reps at the wall, mosey/run @ 50 yards, 25 reps on the other side.

    George Thorogood’s, Bear Crawl/run, Tuck Jumps
    Freak Nasty, run, Superman
    Renegade Row, Crab Walk/run, Donkey Kicks
    Stone Mountain, run, Merkins
    Step Ups, High Knees/run, Shoulder Claps
    Dirkins, Karaoke, Good Mornings
    Irkin, Karaoke, Apollo Ohno

    Rips – 25 reps on the sidewalk, run across the street and up the stairs, 15 calf raises at the top, descend stairs and run back to the sidewalk for another 25 reps

    Flutter Kick, Mountain Climbers
    Leg Raises, J Lo’s
    Crunchy Frogs, Jane Fonda’s

    At this point, Jose10k mentioned that YHC would never remember all of this, which is partially correct. Especially when the mumblechatter moved to math and quadrilateral mumbo jumbo.

    We may have finished with Parker Peters and something else and moseyed back to the flag for 15 Merkins IC.

    Count, Name, and Shooter prayed us out.

  • Ramping up for the New Year – from Einstein

    A cool 36 degrees at the A1C this morning. The mighty Shooter jumps out of his mirth mobile in shorts and, of course, no gloves.

    After a quick warmup of windmills, sshops, neck rolls, arm circles, scissors, parker peters, toe touch,etc. it was off to the ramp

    On the ramp, starting from the bottom – a set of 11s. Merkins of your choice at the bottom,
    jump squats at the top. Forward run, backpeddle run, left side shuffle, right side shuffle on the return trips

    Then to the upper deck for speed skater drills, star jacks, with core excercises at the four corners. Finished up with the world’s greatest stretch.

    Jose10K prayed us out.

  • Let’s try this again!! Both sidewalks and BB!! – from Shooter

    Well, my first BB was pretty good, then I got to the end to submit and it simply disappeared..
    So, for the condensed version, which will not give the first its due..
    Variation of cadence counts Mummy kicks, SSH, Abe Vogodas, Good mornings, Seal jacks, Toe Touches and Ring of Fire 🔥 Al Gore hold with 2 rounds of each PAX completing 2 jump squats.

    A little over 4 miles and returned right on time..
