2 First Watch regulars arrived early to put in the extra work before the beatdown. Hamstrings, back, shoulders and quads muscles were all expanded to full capacity followed by some much enjoyed Shavasana was interrupted by Splinter arriving blinded the PAX. Later it was revealed that Kubotas’ hamstring was a bit rusty and could use some additional work. Deshaun Watson can provide some recommendations. Great work this morning.

Here we go again
Four regular brogii veterans descended upon the playing courts of No Toll to get the early morning creaks and pops out. A few moans and groans were audible throughout the workout as the PAX was hitting all the right spots. Extra long shavasana with a cool breeze seemed the perfect conclusion to mellow the morning. Good times gents. Shiplap has the Q next week.

Just Show Up
A four pack of Brogi regulars escaped the clutches of the long weekend fartsack for some pre Doozy beatdown Broga. No advanced notification was given but these fine studs were ready and waiting for the 5 am call. Today we worked hips, shoulders, back and legs. Great morning to release some of the holiday stress and enjoy comfortable temps. See you boys same time next week.

Tour de Tuckahoe
Eight musky gringos took Riverside Drive by storm before the awakening. A dewey mist encapsulated the posh neighborhood. These are the tales that were spread by the engineer of the 527 freighter out of Toledo.
Short mosey to the corner of the parking lot for warmarama that included Invisible Jump Rope, Helicopters, DQ’s, Jazzercise, Dead Man Hang and Arm Circles. Everyone awake, lets roll:
The THANG:
Indigenous People Run down River Road to Highland. Rear sprints to the front and sets the pace. Luckily only a few motorists out mostly from the opposite direction.
Mailbox Roulette: Mosey down Highland Brocode style. 10 merkins for every mailbox on the right, 10 imperial squat walkers for every mailbox on the left. More residents on the left.
Partner Up on Westham Station: Runner runs to the 2nd no parking sign while partner performs various mobile exercises: bear crawl, lunges with a twist, broad jumps. This was so much fun we did it twice to make it to the corner of Westham and South Ridge.
South Ridge Lindsay: Back to the flag brocode style. At each intersection perform 40 reps of Carolina Dry Docks and LBC’s.
Still time on the clock? Mankillers: Time to get tone for SOJ takeover in a couple weeks. No sissy scorpion kicks or escalating four corners is allowed on the more cultured side of the James.
Time was called. Names, Numbers, Announcements, Prayers – Upchuck took us out.
Convergence on Monday at 7 – Brown’s Island. Ruck begins at 6.
Prayers for those families in Texas. Hold your family and friends today. Tell them you love them just so they know.
NMS: Great mumble chatter today. Good to see Shiplap out and about while House Party really making F3 work for him. Upchuck and Handshake brought both up to speed on First Watch traditions that occur on the regular. Hope to see you both again for the earliest and most entertaining AO. Thank you brothers for the opportunity to lead as it was good to see the happenings of the First Watch neighborhood.

Broga House Party
A quartet of fine, flexible specimen took to the courts of No Toll to bend, flex, and ease into the morning like a warm cup of soup. The conditions were ideal for Broga as we worked on hips, shoulders, back and hamstrings. House Party is jumping into F3 full force and commented on the ever popular pigeon pose. Enjoyed having the regulars in Chaplain and Oyster. Great work gents before the painful VQ that followed.
-
Broga Breeze
A foursome of Broga regulars were joined by a traveler from across the river that must have broken down overnight. Todays stretching emphasized the hips and hamstrings with a small mixture of the back in effort to rehab a recent injury. New variation of the pigeon was created that YHC will plan to bring this again. Shiplap seems to have recovered from his relocation, although his TV did not survive the journey. Good to have Hutton join us this morning and hope he returns to keep Big Data pressure on Oyster. Good time this morning gents.

Nice Cup of Bro
The usual suspects arrived early for a bit of calm before an epic Doozy beatdown. Conditions were ideal for warrior, child pose and the always popular pigeon. Strong work this morning gents. Really enjoyed the company. Great work boys.

Livin’ it up when we’re going down
10 hardened scholars took to the dark streets of Tuckahoe to start the week with a sweat. According to the maintenance worker setting out cones this is what was rumored to have occured…
Mosey down to the end of Lindsey Ct. for F3 disclaimer and introductions. Warm ups included in no particular order SSH, DQ, Jazzercise, Cherry Pickers, Arm Stretches, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Solders.
Everyone is warm so lets get back up the hill. Partner up. One person runs to the top and returns while other partner Bear Crawls, then Lunges, then Jumping Herpes. Meet at the top then slow mosey to the basketball court.
Love in an Elevator – 4 corners: 10 HR Merkins, 20 WWII’s, 30 Squats, 40 Monkey Humpers. Lady of the Night while you stop at every corner to repeat the previous exercises.
Still time left on the clock – BTTF for 5 minutes of Broga to work out the kinks.
Names, Numbers, Announcements, Prayers, YHC took us out (poorly by Bodos standards)
Blood Drive June 4th – Needs volunteers to run the event and give blood. See Pigskin for Details.
Memorial Day Convergence – 7 am at Browns Island. Gomer is leading with Hitch bringing Coffee.
NMS: Great job this morning fellas. 4 corners was brutal in the warmer conditions but you gents crushed it. Not much mumble chatter. Broga was selected over 11’s as my arms were done. Always good to get back out to Hoedown to start the week off right. Thank you for the opportunity to spend the morning with you guys. YHC is going to sign up for Bodo’s public speaking classes this fall.

Lunch Lady Land
A dandy group of eight studs of SOJ ventured to Huguenot High School to see what YHC was cooking up. This is what was rumored to have occurred according to the parking lot enthusiast with protective gear.
5.30 struck and slow mosey around the parking lots to pick up any stragglers. Seeing none, 7 continued down to the cul-de-sac for an appetizer of warm ups that included invisible jump rope, DQ’s, Imperial Walkers, Arm Circles, Reverso, Cherry Pickers and possibly others. Bone Thugs joined midway to make this a snowman group. Everyone warm with the F3 boiler plate release provided, lets mosey.
COP 1: Bust out the juice boxes for Lightpole 11’s. 2 count Mountain Climbers and Merkins followed by lunges up the ramp. Upon arriving to the top, lets throw on 25 jerkins at the rails.
COP 2: Salisbury Steak and Potatoes: Partner Up at the base of Mt. Chaplain. 20 PLT’s followed by 20 boxing cockroaches. Switch so both get into the mix. To ascend the hill, lets wheelbarrow. Arrive at the next parking area, repeat the PLT’s and cockroaches. Run in between parking lots. Upon arriving at final ascent, switch the wheelbarrow and complete.
COP 3: Ice cream with a wooden spoon: Mosey over to small circle at the bus loop for Indigenous People Curb Crawl. Leader runs a lap and upon coming to the end, releases the next. To even out, we reversed as asymmetrical shoulders do not impress the ladies.
Still time on the clock, grab a spot on the wall for some wall sits and various exercises. Slow mosey back to the flag. 2 minutes of Broga to complete the day.
Names, Numbers, Announcements – Prayers for DTH’s sister and family.
Doozy took us out.
NMS: Good work on the upper body this morning gents. Dealer really enjoyed the lunges. Wheelbarrows were absolutely brutal and one that I had planned on repeating but not enough time. You boys crushed today and I am honored to work with such distinguished and fun loving group. This AO is always a highlight of my week and something I look forward to. Thanks

Prepping the Fields
The regular quartet of Brogiis arrived early for some pre Doozy Beatdown Broga. Conditions were cooler then expected but the air was crisp and clean. Hips and Hamstrings were the focus of the day with a quick blend of shoulders. Some light maintenance was needed on the damp courts of No Toll, so YHC arrived early with blower in tow to ensure the conditions were primo and no slippage occurred. All good with muscles feeling good to start the day. Thank you all for joining me on the cooler than normal day.
Off the Books Kettlebell scheduled for Sunday. See Chaplain for deets.
