9 HIM’S set sail in the treacherous waters to the Bermuda Triangle. I have made 26 posts with no rain so what better than washout VQ. WARMARAMA: Mosey to the basketball court for my welcome and disclaimer. Some fast counts, some slow counts, and some missed counts. Helicopters, Don Quixotes, Ukrainian Soliders, Side Straddle Hops, Imperial Walkers. From there was a mosey to the football field for some 4 corners. 10 burpees, 20 merkins, 30 pole smokers, and 40 squats. Leaving the field we curb crawled our way to the hill by the parking lot. Bernie up the hill and…

On a rainsoaked Goyne Park, 3 HIMs made it out for a little extra credit Pull up and Dip session. Lots of good work done with a few different exercises. PAX would do several sets of pull up pyramids, hanging leg raises, chin ups, hollow rocks, full body dips, jerkins, and pull up negatives. Good push by these guys, especially for getting thos work in the pouring rain. Just added a couple LBs for those tough reps. Boberry and I were pretty smoked after doing an Iron PAX workout right before. Mudslide’s Broga was sounding pretty good at this point,…
While other Goyne Hard early birds tackled some upper body badassery, two steel-totin gloom warriors secured every corner of the AO in the pouring rain in preparation for Pool Boy’s VQ. No puddle was left unstomped… THE RUCK, Part 1 = GOYNE CRAZY PAX followed a seemingly insane meandering route all over Goyne Park…the result? THE RUCK, Part 2 = GOYNE SECURED For the second half of the hour, the PAX circumnavigated the park and disc golf course, discussing among many other things the addictive nature of electronics, especially in children. COT: Counterama #2 Namerama Variable stretching awaiting the VQ…
17 HIM’s converged at Satan’s Hill to discover a brand spankin new SOJ GHOST FLAG planted by YHC to usurp the Q. The planned victim was WARBY, but after his recent calf strain he had asked STAE FARM to cover the Q, and as excited as SF was to lead the bootcamp, it was not to be… The THANG: WARMERAMA: While WARBY left for a walking tour of the neighborhood, the rest of the PAX took off up the Hill, then returned to circle up in the parking lot Welcome & Disclaimer Variable IC Reps to get the muscles warm…
Three men, three letters, at least 3 miles, and as always amazing conversation. #SOJ THE ROUTE Roll up at 0500 on the dot, closely behind Dealer Sable dutifully waiting beside his beautiful new Ruckhenge Shovel Flag Rucks ON No Disclaimer, just get MOVIN!

3 HIMs made it out for the latest edition of the Bermuda Triangle. It was slightly less uncomfortable than it’s been the last few days but still 70 and sunny. Started out with a long mosey around the parking lot then back for a standard warmarama. Next for another long mosey to the field that for today will be known as the Coupon Cowpasture. We ran the perimeter of the field and it measured out to .22 miles. Next we went out behind the shed for the coupons. Let’s just say there were lots of triple checks including the following…
YHC and Big Rig took the new “iron patriot” bands for a spin to aid in our muscle up training. Big Rig looked like a baby bird getting eaten by a python trying to get his feet into the bands! If that wasn’t enough he’s half way through Dry July with no caffeine, respect! (typing this while drinking my iced coffee) 😉 After we got untangled – the work began – and we’re getting closer! Great morning getting the extra credit in with ma dude Big Rig. Warm-up Arm Circles, Hollow Rocks Muscle Up – Band Assist – 4 sets…
5 iron warriors converged at the Old Hundred to tackle the latest madness from the DTH experimenticon. Here’s how the PAX collectively shed about 15 pounds in sweat weight: The THANG: WARMERAMA: Mosey lap around the lot and circle up Welcome & Disclaimer Variable IC Reps to get the muscles warm top to bottom ROUND 1 1 – 60lb Sandbag Shoulder Squat 2 – 30lb KB plank Pull Through 3 – 30lb KB Sit-N-Press 4 – 50lb KB Around The World (Slingshot) TIMER – carry 30lb KB via single-arm overhead x30 yards, switching arms for return PAX Run around the…
Today’s workout was a real gasser, probably needed after all the junk food and beer consumed over the extended July 4th celebration. The workout details will follow, but first, a big thank you to all the High Impact Men (HIMs) among us. Many individuals come to mind, but you know who you are, so I won’t mention names. Seeing you grind both in and out of the gloom gives the Pax that extra boost to be better individuals, husbands, and fathers. I know I am a better man today than I was two years ago, thanks to the leaders we…
Part 3 and the final part….12 brave souls including 1 FNG(welcome Big Sky to the group) braved a Mudslide AO on a humid morning. There steers a lot of people out at the park this morning, everyone getting in their walks or whatever they need to before the heat cranked up. The goal today, trained hard yet be in areas that we are out of the direct sun. I have to say, I pulled it off pretty well. A little mosey to the basketball court for a WARMARAMMA (SSHs, Helicopters, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Merkins, LBCs, and a little stretch).…
