Read ‘Em and Weep

Rain was in the forecast for this morning and YHC wanted to stay dry so  decided to make use of one of the many pavilions available at the Big Creek AO.  Got to the parking lot just in time to plant the flag and mosey down to the large pavilion …

TitleMax VQ

After an exhausting, yet rewarding weekend with almost 1000 middle school students at Woodstock City Church, I was honored to lead you guys in the gloom this morning. And considering the focus of our weekend was “Leadership,” today’s timing couldn’t have been more appropriate! A mark of a great leader …

4 Stations at the Hurt Locker

To say YHC was excited to Q a beatdown at the Hurt Lock is an understatement. As Dredd says in Freed to Lead, it is exhilarating to lead men. YHC may “mess up” during the Q from time to time but that is part of leadership.  Fail fast and fail …

Wet T-shirt Contest AKA Paragon PFT

16 Pax came to test their mettle fully expecting a rainy workout.  The order of the day was light or white T-shirts and sharpies to record the results of your PFT.  Ascending numbers is the goal while the fear of declining numbers will keep the PAX from fartsacking!   Warm-O-Rama …

Imprompt-Q

It’s been a long week of travel and busyness for YHC which left little time to plan a super special Whiz-bang beat down beforehand.  Here’s what I came up with while dozing off in the fart sack the night before. Warmup: SSH x 15 IC Hillbillies x 10 IC Sungods …
