Did you know that an Apache Helicopter’s chin mounted autocannon is slaved to the gunner’s helmet. So wherever the gunner looks, the gun points. The PAX came out to The Old Hundred for a beatdown and, unbeknownst to them, a lesson in helicopters. Speaking of which, did you know a helicopter can land safely even with a complete engine failure. It is called autorotation. After a quick mosey around the parking lot, we started with Side Straddle Hops, helicopters (of course), Dead Man Hang into cherry pickers, and then got to know a couple of wives before getting to it.…

Some folks found it difficult to get out of the fartsack after the epic Crabby beatdown at yesterdays Convergence. For the 6 kettlebell monsters, no issue. After getting a glimpse into this weeks Iron PAX routine, YHC decided to give a slimmed down version of it to the group with a kettlebell in hand. Started off with a long, slow mosey around the parking lot. Once back, DMH, down into a few wife stretches, SSH, merkins, imperial walkers. Lets get it on!!! Round 1: 5 squat thruster, 3 point suicide run spaced out at 5 yards each. Round 2: 5…
Cookie put his name in the Q sheet, then immediately got cold feet. Crabby sniffed that out and called him out the night before. At that point, there was no turning back. So Cookie rolled in, grabbed the reins, and led the PAX straight into the fire with his cheese grater: Run around the school Warmups & light stretching (just enough to give false hope) 4 Corners – Lady of the Night edition Kettlebell Thrusters – 20 each corner (140 total) Squats – 40 each corner (200 total) Curls – 60 each corner (180 total) Calf Raises – 100 each…
