    NMMS :

    Thanks for humoring YHC this morning. Had a blast. The only exercise YHC really tried to keep count of reps on was burpees because YHC was interested to see how many we’d get in. YHC counted 42. For all other exercises, YHC lost count in the 100s or more for each exercise.

    Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS:

    YHC highly recommends that if you are not already on the National Slack channel, get connected. There is a lot of Mumblechatter but its a great way to hear how things are going in other states and YHC was able to find out some great intel on the AO’s that we where visiting before we made the 40 minute drive at 4:15 in the morning.

  • Dora meets Beast

    4 gloom warriors made it out this morning to the plush fields of No Toll for a high volume beatdown, Ollivander style. According to eye witness reports that can neither be confirmed nor denied, here’s what went down:

    COP: 9 Don Quixote, 10 Cherry Pickers, 25 SSH, 10 Burpees OYO

    Mosey to field #1 and partner up for a Dora – 100 merkins, 200 LBCs, 300 squats. Finish with a shakeout jog around the field.

    Mosey to field #2 for a proper 6 set Beast – Merkins, 2 count Mountain Climbers, Jump Squats, Carolina Dry Docks, 2 count Flutter kicks, and Burpees to finish.

    Mosey along the trail to the pull-up bar for a ‘do as many pull-ups as you can’ challenge

    Mosey back to parking lot for Numbers / Names. YHC took us out.

    NMS: This was YHC’s first time back in the Q saddle since COVID. It was also the most proud I’ve been of a group of men. These 3 warriors pushed themselves to the limit and then took a step over that. When it’s a small crew you can’t hide among folks. And I saw Crash Test Dummy, Bullseye, and Last Call rise to the challenge and dig deep into that well of strength and endurance because they wanted to better themselves. Hats off to you guys. So grateful for the chance to lead. Until next time, be dareful out there!

  • No Toll Wagon Wheel

    6 Veteran No Toll Regulars and 1 FNG fought off the fart sack this morning to tackle the dewey fields of No Toll. This is what was rumored to have occured according to the dog walkers that witnessed with curiousity.

    Short mosey to the lush fields of No Toll for F3 disclaimer for the new attendee and a quick Warm up with exercises that included helicopters, dead man hang, cherry pickers, plank jacks, elbow plank, plank curls (new exercise with a working title) & LBC’s.

    Short Mosey to the pavilion for the Thang:

    Starting at the pavilion each PAX member ventures out to one of 10 flags laid out on the corners of the field to perform 25 reps of prescribed exercise. After each round, return to pavilion to perform 25 dips or 25 derkins (personal choice), rinse and repeat until all 10 stations have been completed. Exercises included American Hammers (2 count), Squats, Heels to Heaven, SSH, WWII’s, Flutter Kicks (2 count), Curls for the Girls, Squat Thrusts, Arm Circles (with coupons) & Lt. Dans. Doozy led the 6 while YHC and Bullseye cleaned up.

    Still time on the clock, short mosey back to Field 1 for Dora. 100 Hand Release Merkins, 200 Box Jumps, 300 Jump Squats. Timer runs across field and back. Audible called for time during Box Jumps. BTTF for Merkin Ring of Fire and quick Ab Mary of APD, Dollies & Rosalitas. Numbers, Names – Welcome Burnout, Announcements. YHC took us out.

    NMS: Numbers were a bit lower at No Toll with the Summer Tour and the Ultimate Frisbee happening at Heartbreak. Still strong showing from some SOJ regulars. YHC wanted to get on the Q sheet to avoid a 3rd week straight of a brutal Doozy/Posey Q. PAX seemed very happy the audible was called before 300 jump squats. Wagon Wheel workout takes its toll on the shoulders (arm circles with coupons are brutal).

    YHC received a text late last night from an FNG he has been recruiting for months that he wanted to come out to boost his cardio. YHC does not do cardio workouts but added a bit more to oblige. Welcome Burnout, another VMI graduate to add to the PAX. Look forward to seeing you back out shortly. Alwasy in honor to lead you fellas. Enjoy your day.

  • Run For your life

    9 old guys and 1 young guy made their way out of the fart sack to see what the plan for No Toll was. This is what was reported to have happened.

    NMS:

    Gypsy said YHC was his favorite 12 year old until YHC made him do elevens but that was before the beast. T Claps to Crash and Florence for their form on the exercises. That’s all YHC can come up with.

  • Change for No Toll

    YHC was rolling south and realized the EzPass transponder was not in the car, had to do the old fashioned thing and dig for change for the gates. This added to the commute and came in hot to start the work out and here is what went down.

Always appreciate the opportunity and accountability to give and receive a healthy beatdown. SYITG, YHC, DTH
