Been a few weeks since our last OTB Pull Up Session, and looks like YHC was flying solo. And the rain started coming down, as soon as I got to the playground. After a little warmup I got into it. 3, 6, 9 or something like that 3 pull ups, 6 dips, 9 squats Then I setup the resistance bands on the pull up bar, but not for pull ups. New to the OTB repertoire Band Assisted Pistol Squats YHC has been working on pistol squat progression exercises for several weeks now and the band hanging there just seemed like…
6 HIMs emerged from the misty gloom to move some iron throughout the PFP trail and neighborhood.

Warm ups at the court and mosey’d on for a short run around the disc golf area Back to the school lot and we struggled in the pouring completing 21’s of Merkins & WWIIs while crab walking, bear crawling from curb to curb.

Only 5 takers for Spider Run this morning. One launched early and YHC arrived to nary a soul. Tricklers arrived, first 1-800, then Chippendale, followed by a Hitchhiker in need of some solo meditation. Route was shared and off we went: The Route https://onthegomap.com/s/ca703s9b Numbers, names, and announcements where Hitchhiker unknowingly took us out.

Sometime solitary time is good for the soul and today was Hitch’s opportunity for reflection. 1-800 seemed to be back in top…
Eight regulars and one FNG showed up on a warm Saturday morning. It was 70°F at the start and sunny by the end—close enough to call it the elusive 70 and sunny, just not at the same time. After a warm-up, we hit the football field for a cumulative Beast. We started with Hand-Release Merkins and added a new exercise each round: LBCs, Jump Squats, Crab Cakes, Heels-to-Heavens, and finally, Burpees. Six rounds, six stops, six reps per stop. Beastly effort all around. Welcome to our FNG (Stirrup from now on)—glad to have you out there grinding with us. Great…
YHC has only done one KB workout before, but seeing Warby getting jacked has me thinking I should start swinging (not the PounTrey version, Cookie!). Read some backblasts and watched some videos and was ready to add a KB burn to my week of Crabby escapades! According to the driver of the truck awkwardly looking to do donuts in a parking lot only to find 7 chiseled HIMs tossing iron, here’s what took place… Mosey around the bus loop to get the heartbeat up, followed by the standard warmup routine. Opened up with 3 rounds of Crazy 8’s 8x. A…
17 HIM’s joined YHC for a little No Toll beat down. The vibe was certainly not Twin Team loungey and per usual, the HIM’s of F3 rose up to the challenge. Workout was… Warmarama: Side Straddle Hops Helicopters Don Quixote’s Copperhead Squats Merkins LBC’s APD’s YHC would like to note that all attempts at count distraction were brushed aside. Mozey to the pavilion for Thang 1 Dora – 100 Merkins, 200 WWII’s, 300 Air Squats. Those WWII’s were definite time killers. 10 burpees at completion of the Dora for your troubles. Mozey to the parking lot for Thang 2. 50’s.…

3 trained assassins emerged from the gloom to stake a glorious shovel flag into the soil at Pine Fork Park! With Iron in hand they embarked on a journey of destruction! (Of their biceps, triceps and tailbones that is) Stretch OYO – Groans & Mumble chatter took center stage of the bodily wreckage that was bestowed upon us from Choo Choo’s Lumberyard Q over the weekend.
