A Q was abandoned for a good cause in the late hours of the evening. Rain came early and was relentlessly falling. 4 HIM’s wanted to fart sack, but what felt like a drug deal for some hard clay blocks needed to happen this morning. Woodsman brought the goods, Dumar and Hermey brought the truck. According to the Police Officer admiring peak male fitness, here is what transpired… Mosey around the bus loop and some light stretching to feel invigorated. Lined up for a Light pole Build-A-Beast/Pyramid thang that YHC came up with as he drove to OHES… ROUND 1Light…
Browsing: The Old Hundred
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…
Even when misting, its always Sunny and 70. Nine F3 studs grabbed their kettlebells and found their way to The Old Hundred for an early morning beat down. Warmarama consisted of SSH, cherry pickers, imperial walkers, mountain climbers. Now on to the thang. COP1: 11s with squat thrusters and merkin pull throughs. The first 2 rounds, the PAX lunge twist to the far end of the parking lot and reverse lunge twist back. After that, just jogging the remaining rounds, keeping the KB clutched. COP 2: With KB in hands, Bernie from the bottom of the parking lot up the…

Did you know there is a tribe in Mexico that runs without shoes? Did you know there is a book about it? As light broke over The Old Hundred, this was the topic of conversation as 10HIMs crushed it with Kettlebells. Kicked things off with a long mosey around the parking lot. As we ignored the cones, not placed by YHC, the PAX carried their KBs to the other parking lot for a change of scenery. The Thang- 10 Min AMRAP, 8 rep sets Thang 1: Bent over rows, curls, squat thrusters. 1.5 min run, 1 min “rest” Al Gore…

8 HIMs woke up to no more lightning, so we grabbed large iron orbs and went outside to toss them around. According to the bullfrogs (or cheeks clapping, hard to tell) here’s what took place… Under promise and over deliver, no running today, let’s just circle up, stretch it out, and get to work. Kettlebell Poker- Each round, YHC calls out an exercise and we do 10x- Then one-by-one, each PAX draws a card and we perform that many reps: 2-10, J 11, Q 12, K 13, A 14- Spades – Single Arm Clean + Press- Clubs – Skullcrushers- Diamonds…
