Despite the early hour of 4am… two PAX in the predawn gloom in search of a few hours of miles for Big Rig, and 24 for YHC. We got a few laps in on some Brandermill paths. Some false starts and pit stops with bathroom trips and forgotten water bottles. Unfortunately YHC started feeling lightheaded and really out of it about 9 miles in. Pushed through and got in about 12. Decided to call it quits there and live to fight another day. Big thanks to Big Rig for continuing to stay with this broken down PAX. Also a TCLAPS…
a little smaller showing today than we have had in a while but double what we were a year ago. Always good to be out on the streets as we worked through the neighborhood past some of our fartsacking brother’s houses. Hmmm should we moon their houses? In the dark probably not worth it. We searched for the Halloween decorations and found one anxious to show off their displays. A fairly regular workout for us, 10 cul de sacs: 10 merkins 15 LBCs in each. Made it back a little early so ran the bus loop, another round of merkins…

The Crossing regulars welcomed the latest FNG-de-DTH in style, taking to the lush upper field for a fun ride down memory lane. Many a reader will be hard pressed to remember the last time they experienced these Exicon relics, if ever. Please take notes and share the love with your own PAX.

Two eastend OGs linked up to kick off October the right way with an OTB. Plenty of chatter during Warmarama, but it tapered off once we started that mosey….. The Thang: 11s on the hill Hand release merkins at the top, Ukrainian soldier squats at the bottom?Transportation of a Bernie back up the hill. Pull-up bar work 5 pull ups, 10 squats, 15 merkins. Complete 10 rounds, with a mosey after round 5. Mosey back to the flag to wrap it up. Numbers, Names and Announcements Beaver is gonna have a baby any minute! Don’t Waste The Day!
Conditions were ideal and the breeze, she was a blowin for the early edition of FW Broga. Muscles were stretched, chatter was mumbled and groans were audible. Shoulders, hammys, calves, back and glutes were worked specifically. Talking shavasana was a first. Great work fellas.
Good turnout on a nice Wednesday morning for some kb action. Mosey around parking lot then some COP EMOM – every minute on the minute The Q calls out the exercise and reps, the PAX does it every minute on the minute. Exercises rotated between upper, lower and core exercises. Rinse and repeat until time. Yard sale led us on some boat canoes, some GRAMS to close out. Numbers, names, Corned Beef took us out. Great mumble chatter as usual.
7 HIMs showed up on a fantastic morning to take a musical journey from the 80s to present. A month or so ago, YHC was introduced to rucking. Since my body does not like full workouts on a daily basis, rucking filled the need to keep active with less stress between workouts. YHC worked with a cheap backpack until that was no longer viable and then decided to commit to an actual RPC from GoRuck. The best thing about rucking (besides the exercise)? The music! 45-60 minutes of 80s music or something uplifting is magical first thing in the morning.…
Seven ruck studs embraced a cool morning to celebrate OC’s successful weight and age loss program. The secret to his success is simply believing he is a year older than he actually is for a while, and then DK reveals the best birthday present possible – “bro, you’re turning 49, not 50…” The THANG: YHC set an EMOM timer to go off every 5 minutes at which point all PAX stop rucking to complete x3 Burpees (ruck packs ON), and the #60 sandbag is passed to another HIM. The PAX completed three loops around the Stony Point Business Complex, and…
6 non fart sacking beasts made their way to The Old Hundred for a proper beatdown this morning. With an assortment of kettlebells from CSAUP, the PAX quickly identified their own. After a longer than anticipated run, we circled up to kick things off. Modifiers DMH, Ukrainian soldiers, Walk out merkins Flutter kicks, hello dolly, LBC to get the blood moving. The Thang. Count was a collective to 100 of the following. Squat thrust,Squat curls, Devil halo, Single leg dead lift, WW3, windshield wipers, Press overhead pull, Wall sit front press and over head, Bear position pull through, Rifle carry high knee.…
