A Generally Unfriendly Environment

This was the 3rd beatdown ever at Stoneclad and our 0.0 expiriment is proving to be a nice changeup vs. the regular beatdown.  We had 7 PAX for the first two beatdowns, and YHC was excited to see our number almost double as 13 showed up this week. Warm-up: We …

Blue Man Block Party

YHC brought some cinder block fun to the beatdown this morning–news that the Pax received with jubilation and thanksgiving! Here are a few of the many highlights! Unfortunately, Legionnaire may or may not have taken a step back towards the F3DL after a half hour of couponing. Ice and/or a …

Catch the Fever!

A healthy PAX of 15 showed up Thursday morning for Mayhem’s VQ.  Despite some mental lapses and one (or two) close call with a ditch, the PAX had my back as I attempted to guide us through the misery that was to come.  In honor of the baseball season kicking into full …

Round and Round We Go

  With short notice, QIC had to put together a good workout.  Can’t let the PAX down.  Thought about just “going with the flow” as the great Huggiebear suggested.  But then it came to me in a glorious vision.  Lets hope this works. Time to mosey. Warm-O-Rama SSH x 15 …

Floppy 2Q – 6x200m Burpee-Rama

12 brave souls took on the pelting rain for a beatdown a little more challenging than YHC’s VQ. If you ain’t modifying then it ain’t a challenge, right? In spite of the mumble chatter we stuck to the plan. Impressive given the small crew that decided a pre-beatdown run with …

U-Turn

YHC had his VQ this morning at the Kodak where 16 PAX showed up on a unusually warm and dry morning.  Significant mental preparation had taken place the night before to prepare for the onslaught of harassment that ended up being relatively mild… except for one legal practitioner.  I did …

IHOP’s Breakfast of Champions

YHC posting on behalf of IHOP, who served up a delicious breakfast for all today.  Unfortunately, the menu changed a little; bears, snakes and bats were the substitute for hot pancakes: A Dream Team of  19 Pax including 3 FNGs assembled in the gloom with clear skies and a perfect …

Tour de Hooch

YHC had the hump day Q again and decided endurance and “active recovery” was on the docket.  10 PAX showed up, some with their shoes still damp from Monday’s stacked-deck rainy beat down (YHC included). Warmup: Mosey the parking lot, followed by SSH, Squats and Imperial Walkers.  Then YHC quickly …
