Always 70 and Sunny

We were in the presence of greatness as two F3 founders were among us for the Hot 100 Countdown. Warmarama 100 SSH 90 Seconds of 6″ leg lift 80 LBC’s 70 Flutter Kicks 60 Seconds of 6″ plank 50 Fingertip squats 40 Mountain climbers 30 WWII’s 20 Booyah merkins 10 Burpees Misc. exercises 100 years ago today the Scopes trial began in Tennessee. It’s worth reading about. Perhaps the first chapters of Genesis tell us more about who we are and why we’re here and less about precisely when and how we came to be. Admire creation, worship the Creator.

Ten warriors met for coffee and did a workout beforehand just for fun. After some warmups, we partnered up, split up into 5 groups and did a circuit of 5 exercises I forced into a S.W.I.N.G acronym. One group started at each exercise and then rotated. Swings (20 count, 3 sets) Windmills (6 each side, 3 sets) Iron Lunges: slow 3 count lunge (10 each leg, 3 sets) Nice and slow curls-slow 3 count curl (15, 3 sets) Goblet Squats-slow like Copperhead squat (20, 3 sets) After the 3 sets we did a lap and each group rotated to the…

10 gloom brothers of the F.O.R.G.E. embraced the suck this morning, pushing beyond the boarders of the AO and the standard comfort of carrying just their own body weight. Here’s how the PAX embraced some fresh coupons: The THANG: WARMERAMA: Run to bottom of hill, Bernie back to top Someone remarks “UH OH, DTH IS MAD…” Circle up at the Flag Welcome & Disclaimer A smattering of many usual DTH warm-up exercises, but fast paced with only x5 reps IC each COP # 1: ELEVENS at the topmost grass slope of Mt Chaplain Incline Merkins at the bottom 10–>1 WWII’s…

6 HIM came out and braved the heat, the humidity, and a potential thunderstorm for a House Party Q. Here’s what went down. Mosey to the far end of the parking lot for Warmarama which included SSH’s, Helicopters, Arm circles, Dead man hang, Tempo merkins, and WWII’s. The Thang: With little to no running on the menu, YHC decided plenty of reps was the way to go. Each Pax did a Dora split into 4 rounds of each exercise, with the Pax taking a short run around the parking lot after each round. The goal was a total of 1,100…

7 DaVillians and 2 summer tourists posted on a muggy morning to throw around some iron. COP – mosey around parking lot then various warm up exercises. Thang Go around the parking lot stopping at each light for an exercise, 2 rounds. Exercises were: squats, curls, halos, WW2s, lawn mowers, kb swings, calf raises, demon crushers Modified triple check Since Corned Beef and YHC brought some additional toys we did a modified triple check. 3 groups of 3. Group 1 will do mace balance, club swings and club tricep extensions. Group 2 and 3 will do figure 8s, thrusters and…

8 strapping HIMs assembled in the gloom, seeking refuge from beatdowns of the sort visited upon them Monday at the Alamo, courtesy of Crabgrass. Running was kept to a minimum, but this still proved unacceptable for some who preferred none. As Nancy Lopez counsels, “When you hear them grumbling, you’re doing something right.” And so, it was. Quick lap around the school. Andy Dufresne, helicopters, rotator cuff stretch, dead man hang, cherry pickers, SSHs, merkins, mountain climbers, box cutters 20 swings, 20 squat thrusters, 20 APDs, repeat 3x 20 Romanian deadlifts, 75 calf raises, 20 single-leg deadlifts (10/leg), repeat 3x…

14 men from the Deep South came out for a moist morning of woodshed action, including 2 FNG’s. YHC is happy to see this PAX strong with recent FNG’s and even more new FNG’s! **The events described here are based on true events. Some of the names, places and exercises may have been changed to protect the innocent. This was also modified to fit your screen. Quick mosey around the parking lot to start.  COP- 30 each SSH, LBC; 10 Each, Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperial Walkers, , Copper head squat, Dead man hang, Merkins, Dollies, Flutters.   Having planned a…

7 HIMS answered the bell nearly 9 days ago. YHC is just getting around to the back blast! Apologies Gentlemen! The following is what I recall. Mosey warm up on the way to no burpee lake, stopping often to perform copious amounts of various exercises. No Burpee lake: Run to each lightpole on inside to perform, 20 squats, 10 merkins, 5 WWII’s. The PAX determined there were 30 poles including those behind the brick house. Run back to flag stopping at certain points to perform strenuous exercises. YHC took us out in prayer! Again apologies for delay (Went on Vacay…

Seven soggy HIMs braved the Larus Park Swamp for a brisk 4 mile ruck. The local ducks thought we were part of their gaggle and decided to join us for coffee rama. We stretched our minds discussing world history as we powered our way through chapter 2 of The Uses of the Past.

If there was ever a day for participation trophies, it was today. 5 Clydesdales joined forces in the muggy, post-holiday week gloom.
