  • Styx returns to the gloom. Too much time on her hands?

    Quarantine……well it sucks. Styx was over it and decided she wanted to beat up on the NM PAX for 45 minutes. So on the Q sheet….Styx was to wake up early on Monday.

    Here is how it went down….Stretching, laps, then GASSERS…………if you were there you know and if not, be thankful the Fartsack held you in. They were brutal and overall a solid workout!

    In all seriousness it is always great to see you kids grow up, take charge and lead. In this case a group of old men (except POG – his birth cert has been requested). I could not be more proud of her!

    Have a great day fellas and THANK YOU!

  • How many PRIMETIME games did the Bills get this season?

    YHC is REALLY excited to get live sports back! So much that the schedule release of NFL was top of mind. It would appear the Bills are the team to beat this season (so I hear)!

    Five strong men showed up ON TIME. Maybe the Q was a second or two late, but for what was planned, the extra sleep was necessary.

    Here is what went down. NO COP. Straight to the lowest part of Satan’s Hill. With Buffalo getting FOUR primetime games, the theme is how much pain will Buffalo unleash on the NFL this season? SO YHC wanted to unleash some pain.

    Love/Hate hill on Satan’s Hill three rounds and a bunch of Mary in the middle. Finish with a solid round of Mary, Ring of Fire, Howling Monkey’s and other stuff.

    YHC took us out.

  • Just putting in the work!

    New Market PAX did a hot potato Q. Great work by all.

  • When Aisle 5 gets on something………just jump on!

    Three men and a dog woke and tackled the day! YHC & Aisle 5 started up Satan’s Hill to meet Punxsutawney and Cloey to walk the cul de sack tour. No runner were present. Hope everyones livers are ok.

    Aisle 5 has a VERY specific desire when it comes to looking at a new home. Ranch style with a WALK OUT basement. Few weeks back he saw a lot in NM that might suit his desire. Apparently his M is ALL on board! Today’s conversations were primarilay around reviewing everyones home and if they had a walkout basement! Our apologies to NM residents for three old dudes pointing and likely talking too loud.

    He is for sure in love with making his M happy and is looking for a buyer for his house in Brandermill. The video is outside my playlist, but fits how Aisle 5 feels about making his M happy.

    Oh..approx. 4 miles were done!

  • No More April Fooling Around………

    Three soldiers fought off the fartsack to what was rumored to be a rainy shit show. But………….not a surprise……….It’s Always Sunny & 70.

    YHC knew if I did not sign up for the Q, I would be a victim to the fartsack. So against all my Pete Rose instinct (NM will get it), I sent the Q text and went to bed. Instead of meeting at the normal spot we met at Wilson’s.

    YHC announced there would be NO COP and we would be getting straight into the work out. Cul De Sack Tour/Roulette. Each New Market cul de sack will be visited by the men to perform 10 of the called out exercise. Here is where the roulette comes in…the PAX decides (novel idea right – NEVER been done! LOL)

    On the eighth cul de sack (last one) we stopped for some ground & pound with cinder blocks. YHC called out a penelty for the gazelle’s – On the run back to the clubhouse parking lot, the gazelle’s had to stop and perform ten SSH and turn around to find YHC. With three minutes left, we did some Mary.

    Rosetta took us out. One month of quarentine down and hope and end is soon. Stay safe. I might have been halucinating, but did we see a unicorn???Great work this morning men.

  • It just kinda happened!

    As YHC is writing this there are so many peoole dealing with different things! Positive and challenging. Our prayers go out to all who need them and those who may not right now!

    Today’s workout was a solid beating and everyone in NM showed their strength and ability to lead. A good hot potato. If you were there, you’d know!

    The one thing COVID-19 has done is get me good at going down rabbit holes on YouTube. The attached video is just one of those. Makes me hopeful when we can all get on a golf course again and act like we are good (and drunk idiots)…….except Duke, he is like a pro!

  • Runners run AND do other things!

    Five plus Annie showed up on Good Friday for a mixture of stuff! Runners ran around 5 miles and others did bootamp stuff.

    YHC started to think about what to write about in the backblast and while we just did a bunch of stuff, YHC remembered George Carlin and his stuff skit………..sooo funny.

    YHC has gone down a rabbit hole watching Carlin videos. Was going to post the stuff video, but came accross the one posted. Carlin was way ahead of his time. Makes you wonder. Enjoy and if you want to laugh, watch some of his videos. YHC enjoyed!

    Here is what went down: Runners took off and others did a lap arounf block then started. with 15 minutes left all runners showed up…………..YHC was really confused, yet the runners wanted some variety. Stuff they got!

    YHC took us out. PLEASE enjoy the holiday weekend! Prayers for all! Be afe!

  • What’s your inspiration?

    Six men broke free from the fartsack to partake in something new..kinda.

    YHC was scouring the internet from boredom and read that April 7th would produce a Full Moon Pink (Nancy Lopez read the same article – great minds). This is where the moon is at the closest point in the rotation around the earth. It happens on a 14 month cycle. In my boredom I found one of MANY workouts people are posting and came across the one titled HIIT this curb workout. So we did…….kinda.

    Here’s how it went down…………

    COP: SSH, Little Baby Crunches, Superman, Flutter Kicks (Sugar Sticks), Jazzercise & Imperial Walkers.

    Beatdown: Curb Steps, Curb Pushoffs, Curb Standing Lunge, Curb Burpee, Curb Drydock to Merkin (needs a new name as much mumblechatter was happening – some creative xxx names tho!) & Curb Peter Parkers.

    If you want to see how it was supposed to happen watch the video.

    Marmaduke took us out. Prayers to Honeymoons family as they wait to hear news on his fathers remission.

  • You can always hear the icecream truck!

    Four ran and two did a boot camp. Honeymoon took us out. Nothing exciting just work, BUT what is exciting is today, April 3rd is Eddie Murphy’s Birthday. Who doesnt love some Eddie Murphy!

  • I just felt like running!

    Honeymoon, Annie, POG & WIlson showed up right around 5:30am to do something. Somehow we all just felt like running. Honeymoon, Annie & POG took off one direction and Wilson took off in another. Total mileage was not reported, but YHC feels confident Wilso ran the least……..
