  • 60%

    Three early risers came out for some Broga in perfect morning temps. All agreed that YHC is a shitty Yogi but we found out about Handshake’s burning taint.

  • Broga to start

    When I arrived home from work, the rain let up. I was still committed to do a routine it would be more standing, not much on the ground. Luckily we were blessed it was not bad at all. I used the meet up area as our place to get ready. A day like today, try to work everything top to bottom, hit the muscles get them mobile knowing they’re about to take a thrashing. It was about 15-20 minutes, then we were ready for the main part

    A tip for those who want to just get started. You don’t need to do 1x a week for 20-30 minutes, you can get more of a benefit with shorter 10-15 minutes multiple times a week. When I get home from work, I have a few playlists on YouTube with over 100 short sessions, pick one get it done and that’s it. Sometimes the hardest part is simply stepping on the mat, hit play and start. Takes 3 weeks to develop where it becomes a routine. Give it time. See you at the next gloom

  • Insomnia Broga

    2 regular F3 Brogiis were so excited for Attila FW Q that sleep was not on the menu. Like a pair of 8 year olds at Christmas, they sprang from their abodes with excitement, broga mats in hand to enjoy the ideal conditions that awaited them at the River Road Baptist Church. Shoulders, Hips, Back and Glutes were well represented in the plan this morning. Good mumble chatter among the regular moans and groans. Thank you for joining me Hutton.

  • 369 Damn She……

    Beaver and I hit the morning with a mix of Broga and 369s Big Rig style! We knocked out 10 rounds of 369s with a run after the 5th round and another to finish strong. Beaver crushed his pull ups with some leg raised pull ups. I couldn’t manage those yet but maybe one day.

    Sending prayers for the men stepping up Friday night. Stay strong!

  • Broga with a Drizzle

    3 Broga veterans hit the courts of No Toll for ideal conditions in the 2025 debut. Conversation was strong over the groans and breaths of stretches. Emphasis on hips, shoulders, hammys and back. All the popular poses were encouraged and emphasized including pigeon, warriors (I & II) and childs pose. Shavasana was short and sweet due to the slight rain that arrived. Good times were had by most. Thanks fellas for joining me. Good to have both House Party and Chaplain out again.

  • The message on the window

    6 HIMs came out to Timberwolf this morning, 3 chose rucking and 3 chose the bootcamp. It was foggy, humid, and a lot of running, but we got it done. The Q was not claimed, so we did a little hot potato full of triple checks!

    Round 1

    Triple check by Tzatziki: Merkins, squats, and the runner to the curb

    Triple check by Woodsman : Dips, toe taps, and the runner to the light pole

    Triple check by Mudslide: Lieutenant Dans, inchworms (with a merkin), and the runner to light pole

    Round 2

    Triple check by Tzatziki: Flutter kicks, LBCs, and the runner to the curb

    Triple check by Woodsman: SSH, Firecrackers, and the runner up the hill

    Not enough time for a second Triple check by Mudslide, so he took us out with some Broga in the rain.

    We met back up with the ruckers (TSG, Crabgrass, and FlyBoy) as time expired and TSG took us out. Timberwolf has been light the past two weeks but happy to be there and start the day off right!

  • Warmer Than Expected

    Four yogis emerged for an early morning routine with good coverage across a range of movements. It was certainly warmer than expected.

  • Hitch the new Handshake?

    Six Booters and a single stroller enjoyed the glorious tuckahoe morning for a beatdown for the ages. The Pax anxiously awaited for the timely arrival of little blue only to be welcomed by the sign of the silver sedan of Hitch coming in hot. Most of the intrepid travelers set off while Kubota wandered aimlessly likely egging houses and leaving flaming bags of feces (possibly his own) on the enchanted Tuckahoe stoops. For us more cultured souls, here is how things went down.

    Mosey around the parking lot and into Henrico’s smallest but finest park for introductions, salutations and disclaimers. YHC declared this beatdown would be a numberless episode with all exercises done in conversation without need for reps or responsibilities. Warm ups included, all on your own, DQ’s, Dead Man Hang, Imperial Walkers (maybe) along with some minor broga.

    Mosey over to Country Squire for some mailbox roulette. Merkins for the left sided mailboxes, WWII’s on the right. All done brocode style with YHC determining when to switch exercises.

    At the intersection of Country Squire and Ridge we partner up in odd numbered groups. Timer runs up the hill to the first reflective sign on the right and returns to find other performing squats and shoulder taps. Rotate a few more times.

    Slowsy up the hill as a group performing lunges, high knees walks, reverse lunge and finally mosey to the tip of the triangle park. Observing various landscaping features along the way the seemed like good bathing options to some.

    At the triangle we grouped again. Timer runs to the traffic light and returns to find partner performing various ab centric exercises. These included LBC’s, Flutters, APD’s and Freddie Mercuries.

    Slowsy into the park for some broga including pigeon and shavasana. BTTVF to meet up with Kubota. Names, no numbers, Prayers, Announcements. YHC took us out.

    Prayers/Announcements: Fireman Ed and Roger Roger as the work thru various health issues. Neighbors and friends that have lost employment recently. Chili Cook Off at El Woods casa. Centurian run/ruck. See Slack

    NMS: YHC had no idea what he was going to do today. A casual beatdown with plenty of conversation and broga was just what YHC needed after a hectic week. Sorry for the late backblast but it has been one of those days. Great mumblechatter of various topics including honeymoons, swim attire, travel plans among other topics. No verbal assaults from the neighborhood but plenty of decor open for comment. Thank you fellas for the opportunity to lead. Always enjoy this group of lads.

  • Conversational Broga

    2 insomniacs pulled out their sponsored Broga gear to welcome the warmer tides of spring. Introductions and salutations were upfront with good stretch session that emphasized the shoulders, neck, back, hips and glutes. Shorter shavasana then planned as the breeze created a bit of a nip.

    Always enjoy the conversation with Hutton making the effort to answer the bat signal. Great way to catch up on life. Thanks for the comradery.

  • Get the “Led”‘out

    The title… Back in the day long before streaming or some of you were even born, radio stations would play about 20 minutes a night Led Zeppelin music. They called it GET THE LED OUT! This morning, 8 on a slightly warmer morning ventured to Satan’s lair for a Mudslide Friday Led Zeppelin music. Here we go:

    WARMARAMMA(SSH, Imperial Walkers, Cherry Pickers, Copperhead squats, Merkins, Flutters). I wanted to get us going not wasting time. To start things up (6-12-25)a triple check 6 pull ups, 12 Aussie rows, 25 Decline Merkins. A little break then the lower body same style(6 single leg deadlift, 12 jump squats, 25 2-count toe taps). After that we split into 2 groups of 4(a little Spartan style training). As a group 100(25 a person) burpees to snatch lift with jump ropes, Cindy swings, run to the curb and back. A little run up the hill and back(letting Satan know today we own it)

    Broga to finish things out. Why have I been pushing broga more? Older we get, to be flexible and mobile will be the key to helping you get out there and train in a way that feels good. You will not get mobile or flexible overnight, it takes time yet stay with it and the results will come. A variety of stretches to close the session then time was up. Names, numbers and prayer led by YHC to close out Friday

    Tomorrow is the last day of the SOJ takeover, yet I will be at ROCK AND ROLL for L Woods I believe his first Q he will lead at this spot. I am looking forward to it plus I hope we get a good number for him (we need more to come out lead Qs there change it up). See Slack for all other news the next big thing Frozen Triangle 2/8 at Dogpile.
