  • riot gear dreams?

    rolled up to a thick group of men ready with the kettle bells. There was concern about the size of mcGruff’s kb. There was talk of riot gear and daydreaming about it. Class three says it’s not as fun as it looks. there was a good mood, some classic vinyl on the speaker and we got pumped.

  • Bear Crawls and Buckets!

    10 grown-boys flew out of bed this morning in hopes of playing wiffleball with some friends. But with the Q down for the count, we audibled and here’s how the play unfolded…

    Warm Up – Moseyed around the perimeter of the parking lot and set up camp in the middle for some stretching. Gave the F3 mission and got into it…SSH, Dead-Man Hang, Cherry Pickers, Arm Circles, LBC’s, Leg Stretches, Merkins, Wilson’s Wife and Fudd’s Wife.

    The THANG – With kettlebells in hand, moseyed over to the bus loop where the PAX spread out so that each man stood at the end of a painfully long bus parking stripe. YHC sandbagged some NFL Draft workouts (along with some NFL Draft fun facts) so we went ahead and unpacked those…

    • Bear Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Curls w/kettlebell
    • Spiderman Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Squats w/kettlebell
    • Slinky Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Lat Raises w/kettlebell
    • Crawl Bear to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (10) Thrusts
    • Bear Crawl with the kettlebell to the end of the parking stripe and back

    After the Bear Crawl circuit, the PAX dropped their kettlebells and moseyed over to the basketball court. Whiffing on wiffleball was a bummer but YHC still found a way to scratch that sports itch. Let’s play some KNOCKOUT!

    • Played 5 rounds of Knockout
    • Once eliminated from the round, the PAX moseyed over to the side of the court to perform an exercise of their choice while the round finished up.

    Back to the parking lot for names and numbers
