  • House Party has some sneaky tracking skills

    Boberry and Big Rig got an early 5 + in. Boberry had to go sling some hams. Big Rig got a big lap in with Rodeo Clown. Somehow House Party chased them down in the middle of the woods. Big Rig got a couple more miles in as House Party and Rodeo Clown ventured on. Good times, great conversations.

  • Cocaine Kangaroos… or should they be Cocaine Easter Bunnies?

    6 Good Eggs got together for the Easter weekend edition of Rocknroll at Rockwood Park. 4 moseyed over to the basketball court to be joined by the other two during the warmarama with the disclaimer.

    Twas a standard warmarama with exception to YHC’S attempt at Dr W’s in cadence.

    Mosey over to the first tee ball field on the left, if you made a wrong way left into the park at the main entrance.

    There happened to be some beastly cindies from where they were finishing a wall behind home plate. Too heavy for YHC to do curls, so we opted for a set of Goblet Squats, then a Farmer’s Carry lap around the bases.

    Mosey over to the freshly paved parking lot, with fresh lines of paint and everything.

    Ascending Cocaine Kangaroos

    Start with 1 Jump Squat, increasing by 1 at each white line. Walking Lunges in between. Stop at the pole about halfway. Nearly 20 Jump Squats.

    Ascending Cocaine Crab Walks

    Ascending Ab exercises of choice at each white line. Crab walk in between.

    Mosey to the parking lot next to the dog park.

    EMOM Merkins

    10 Merkins Every Minute On The Minute, for 10 minutes. Last minute As Many Reps As Possible. (AMRAP) Cha Cha hit his age on the number on the last set. What an animal!!

    Cha Cha led some Broga, and took us out.

    Happy Easter to Everyone

  • Pools will be open soon

    Finally had some warm temps for the Bermuda Triangle. That meant that Pool Boy came out of hibernation. Here’s a brief description of what the attack dog that YHC fought off while doing Freddie Mercuries witnessed.

    Mosey to the front of the school for the standard warmarama, with some commandos to finish.

    Mosey to the side of the school for some Penguins and Double Clutch Pole Dancers

    Mosey back to the disc golf parking lot for 4 corners with jump squats.

    Mosey lap around the track then back to the front of the school for another 4 corners with oblique LBCs

    Plank for 1 minute +

    Mosey to Taco Truck Hill for Sevens with Double Count Reverse Lunges, Bernie up the Hill and Quadruple Count Freddie Mercuries

    Back to the parking lot for Eye of the Storm

    10 Double Count Shoulder Taps in the Eye

    10 Merkins at each corner.

    Great to have Pool Boy back out in the Gloom.

    We had plenty to pray for

  • Pull Ups and Dips are Back!

    Pool Boy and Big Rig were back at Ecoff Elementary for the first pull up and dip session since the bars froze! Now that everything has thawed out, it should be a regular occurrence again.

  • Father of The Bride

    Two Bermuda Boys met at Goyne Park for the latest installment of the Bermuda Triangle.

    Nothing fancy, just some laps around the school broken up by merkins and a good dose of core exercises. YHC didn’t realize until after, that there were no leg exercises.

    YHC was in his taper for the Half Marathon this weekend so it was relatively light workout for Bermuda. Which didn’t bother Shooter, as he was recovering from illness.

    Great to catch up with Shooter, whose daughter is getting married this weekend. Congratulations!

    As usual, we had plenty to pray for.

  • It Takes Two

    Broadway and Big Rig ventured into the Bermuda Triangle for the latest Tuesday Beatdown. They showed up early, and got in an easy 2.5 miles.

    No warmarama, just right into some Quadzilla Elevens with Stiletto Squats and Pole Smokers. Bernie up the hill.

    Back to the flag for an Eye of the Storm with various ab and leg exercises out on the corners, and merkins in the eye.

    Then 4 corners with Merkins and Abs.

    Mosey back to the school, for some lunges, and back to the flag.

    Always great to catch up with Broadway. We certainly had a lot to pray for.

  • Let’s get the band back together

    4 Bermuda Hermanos made it out for the first 2026 edition of The Bermuda Triangle. Due to a series of different reasons, the Bermuda Triangle was in hibernation in December, but these PAX were ready to go.

    We started with a mosey lap to the lower parking lot and back for the standard warmarama.

    The COP was a modification of a workout YHC stole from Meatball. This was done in a 4 corners style. All exercises were repeated in each corner with different traveling exercise between corners.

    40 Runners Poses/40 Oblique LBCs (20 each side)

    Great to be back out at Goyne Park with some of my Bermuda Bros. We all had a lot to pray for.

  • Qing Downrange

    WARMUP: Warmup for the warmup: Mosey to the fence at the tennis court for Indigenous People’s Chainsmokers. PAX at the rear bear crawls to the front until the end of the fence. Then to the empty parking lot for the standard warmarama. Hold Plank as we call out PAX names to our left. On your Six Boat Rows as we review core principles, mission, and credo. The PAX were disappointed they didn’t get to study beforehand.
