  • Eye of The Tiger

    It was my 100th post so the PAX thought it would be a good idea I take the Q this morning. 5 HIM’s hit the Lumberyard for a Fit Cardio Circuit. Beaver and Choo Choo were already onsite playing pickle ball for a warm up – unfortunate news as Choo Choo has a lower leg injury that he is going to battle through – prayers up for him and hoping for a quick recovery! He still put in miles around the lumberyard while the other 4 PAX took off. 
    Here’s how it went down:

    Warm up freestyle on your own with some chatter – I put out a warning to the PAX stretch like you’re about to run 1 mile….and that’s how we started. 8:20 mile pace with the adrenaline pumping as we were listing to Rocky sound track. No easy way out, eye of the Tiger , Burning Heart. 

    The thang:

    Side straddle hops x 30 

    Squat x 20

    Side Shuffle x 20 

    Step Back Lunge x 20

    Lunge twist x 20

    Toe Tap Skip x 20

    A Skip Clap x 20

    Push Up X 20

    Sit up x 20

    Push Up Shoulder Tap x 20

    Alternate Leg clap x 20

    Knee to Elbow crunch x 20

    Push up knee tap x 20

    Standing Crunch x 20

    Burpee x 10 

    Kick out x 20 

    Plank toe tap x 15

    Plank knee drive x 15

    Run 1 more mile! 8:11 pace!

    Ring of fire with the PAX – all different workouts and ended with a spring half the football field and lunge back to the middle.

    Beautiful weather this morning, great men,

    Yukon took us out.

    be where your feet are!

  • Apocalypto

    3 HIM’s representing the lumberyard – we stretched and we ran miles. Great run fellas way to push through! We talked about 2006 movie Apocalypto – if you haven’t seen it, it’s a great film and it involves running….for your life.

    We all supported each other through the run and ended on a high note – the tone was set for the day!

    Some runs are good, some are a struggle. This one was good.

    Be where your feet are!

  • Don’t Hit the Car!

    3 Lumberjacks emerged from the gloom for a good ole fashioned lumberyard beat down! Here’s what all the soccer moms witnessed!

    COP3 – 5 Sets – 5 pull-ups / 10 Merkins / 15 weighted squats at the ODG.

    COP4 – return coupons to the bank. Native travel – P1 sets the pace by chucking the medicine ball ahead and moves to the back of the line while P2 is doing an upper body exercise with brick bag. Once ball is tossed bag gets passed back to P3. This went on for over a third of a mile.

    COP5 – Victory Lap – Run a solid pace from trail head to Lt Dans trail and sprint it back to the flag on the final quarter.

    Numbers & Names

    Announcements- Homegrown Half coming up on the 16, YHC trying to get all the deets on that.

    Choo Choo took us out.

  • The 200th Post!

    Five HIMs came together this morning to do some soul searching and to figure out why we were out here sweating like crazy in what felt like 100 degrees, with grass clippings ending up in places they definitely shouldn’t be. But not a single complaint was heard, and we crushed it. Here’s how it all went down…

    Warmarama

    • Mosey to back of the park
    • Arm circles
    • Chinooks
    • All the wives and moms
    • SSH
    • Copperhead Squats
    • Grab a Cindy and head to that Bermuda

    Thang!
    We tackled a workout inspired by Poolboy’s 100th post. The YHC made a few slight tweaks to the routines but the structure that he came up with remained the same. This one was a personal test for each HIM. Much of the workout was done solo, pushing ourselves, measuring where we are. Next time, we’ll start a bit earlier, minimize the distractions, and dial it all in. We’re almost there!

    We had an FNG join us today he goes by Paul, but after today, he’s officially known as 5 Star. He attends the YHC, Beaver and Yukon Cornelius aschurch, sells insurance, has a couple of kids but most importantly rocks the best looking mustache this side of Richmond. As for the name? Let’s just say he’s a solid 5 out of 10-star athlete… and proud of it.

    Announcements see slack
    Numbers, Names and Prayer Request YHC took us out!

    Don’t Waste The Day!

  • Lumberyard Ruck and Run!

    3 HIM’s emerged to the Lumberyard for some heavy rucking and running!

    Wonka and Beaver carried a lot of weight – I decided to venture off for a run and we met back at the starting point for names and numbers.

  • It’s A Male Plane

    3 Amigos saddled up for a rough ride this gloom, sure to make bystanders pause in their tracks and gaze in wonder what in God’s green earth they were witnessing.
    Here’s the show!

    Warmarama!

    Mosey the wide trail down and around the back of the football field, hightail it up the hill and follow the sidewalk to the west octagon. OYO for mumble chatter!

    • Helicopters
    • Arm Circles
    • Don Quixotes
    • Willy Mays Hayes
    • Wilson, Fudd, Roscoe’s Wife
    • Scorpions
    • 10 Burpees

    Mosey to the parking curbs – Merkin at every curb. MoT – Bear Crawl from one curb to the next in snake like fashion. Once the 6 is in PAX does 10 Burpees.

    Small Triple Check –

    Timer PAX does 10 slow leg lifts on the monkey bars – P2 – Pull-ups – P3 – Bulgarian split squats on the log.

    Hand the Q over to Yukon Cornelius!

    Mosey to the coupon stack and grab a coupon per PAX. Make our way over to the hill behind the baseball diamond.

    Diamond Cutters! 3 Rounds
    10 Coupon Overhead Squats – Lunge up the hill – merkins at the top if you choose – Crawl Bear back down the hill.

    Q gets handed over to Wildwood!
    Return coupons to the stack and run 1 mile! This has to have been one of the most difficult miles YHC has ever ran for whatever reason! The IT Band on one leg and calf on the other were flaring real good!

    The mind is a powerful tool!

  • Mayo, Mustard and Ketchup

    3 HIM’s emerged at the Lumberyard motivated and inspired – a quick stretch then we got right into it – 4 Mile run.

    It was all business this morning – focus on the run, listen to your body, stay strong mentally and that’s exactly what the PAX did.

    No better way to start the day Beaver and Choo Choo – great work men!

    We had some great conversations about life, diets, mental health and how we are grateful to be able to do what we do.

    Be where your feet are
