This was originally going to be my 2nd trip to area known as “Uptown” and my 1st WPM – with MO as the VQ but 2Utes need a fill in so I couldn’t let the brother that EH’d me down. It does help to have a son (Disclaimer) as an …
Guys there are no doubt several things I need to work on – procrastination is right at the top! Warm Up: Hall x 15 Micheal Phelps Hill Billy SSH Leg Swing with a partner facing each but left should to right should using partner for balance swing outside leg out and …
8 men (1 FNG) posted for a RED Friday workout tribute to British serviceman Garreth Jenkins. Warm-up SSH x 20 (I could tell Frac was disappointed), Imperial Walkers x 20, Windmills x 15, then some self-love on your own while YHC gave the instructions to… The Thang Partner up for …
This was YHC’s first Q outside the friendly confines of Uptown. So it was appropriate that it would be the Uptowner that would be YHC’s first Q in the great, big WORLD. You can imagine my dismay when I pulled into the parking area with no other cars around. Would …
Morning broke over the Uptowner, where YHC made a rare appearance for a Friday Q. 6 more PAX joined to start the day with a sweaty beatdown. Warm Up: YHC almost started with a Mosey, before remembering this is The Uptowner. So instead, right here – circle up! SSH x25 …

This year the first Friday of the month has been RED Friday at The Uptowner. I have to give credit to F3 Greenwood. I stole their idea and sometimes steal their workouts. Today we celebrated the life and service of Sgt. Thomas MacPherson. More on him in the NMM. Conditions: …
Sorry, really late backblast. Better late than never, but not much as the memory had faded. I do remember the warm-up, or at least the theme. It is common for a Pontiff workout to start with 31 Side Straddle Hops. Wally Pontiff, the namesake of the park, wore 31 playing …
Seven men got some loving with rocks on Friday at Pontiff…gotta get those guns and upper body honed for the summer. No running involved so lot’s of time to hopefully build some muscle. Here’s what we did: IPW x25 Goofballs x20 AC x20 WM x20 Crab Cakes x20 LS Squat …
YHC was once asked what he would do in the event he was the only Pax to post for a beat down? We’ll have to wait and see was the answer. Triple Shift sent a call asking someone to stand in for him, as some neck pains were keeping him …
