Anniversaries are important.  I don’t really age, so events like anniversaries are some of the only ways that I know how to track the passage of time.  As pledge brothers, Big Bird and I were thrilled to celebrate our seven-year-postbroversary™ with anyone looking for a great reason to get outside on the wettest weekend theContinueContinue reading “BB: 9/28/24 Nest @ County; Big Bird & Cochran Postbroversary Q”

As you all know, we don’t get up for easy. But when your boy tags in to Q a workout instead of Devitto, you are getting up for easier. Bring coupons, but we will cover some ground. I don’t know if the Sandlot challenge is still a thing, but I’ll try to get enough distanceContinueContinue reading “PB: 8/20/24 Agony @County; Cochran Q”

It’s going to be perfect weather to squeeze in plenty of cardio and core. No coupons. Let’s get after it. Wooooooo!!!

Bromance was in in the air as Big Bird and I joined forces for another life-changing Q to celebrate our commitment to one another. We donned matching tuxedo t-shirts (because we’re formal, but like to party) to keep it classy for our anniversary.

Looking forward to another crisp morning tomorrow. We’ll get plenty of PT, but you can leave the coupons at home. I’ll draw inspiration from all the guys who completed the Bourbon Chase over the weekend, so we’ll do our best to cover some ground. SYITG!!

Grab a coupon, and give OSHA a call. We’re climbing ladders tomorrow. Should be enough space to mix in plenty of running too. SYITG!

Abacus headlocked Bird and I to post at Posh five years ago this week, and thus commenced a bromance worthy of commemoration in the F3 Archives. Bird has become an F3 legend through his strength, speed, and impossibly upbeat attitude. And a lot of times I’m also at those workouts. Yesterday was a beautiful morningContinueContinue reading “BB: 9/17/22 Nest @County; Big Bird & Cochran Co-Q”

It’s a heavy. So bring a coupon or something that can at least identify as a coupon for 45 minutes. We won’t be running, but we’ll all lift heavy things together. Can’t wait to see your handsome faces. -Cochran

It’ll be another beautiful Tuesday at the Boondocks. My wife previously suggested that I should do a James Bond-themed workout. I don’t know exactly what that means, but screw it, James Bond theme it is! Please bring a coupon, but be prepared to travel some too. In a touching tribute to Boondocks legend, Backflop, I’llContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast; 8/9/22 @ Boondocks; Cochran Q”

Oh, what? You need me to recruit you? It’s sixty degrees in July. Your excuses are lame. If you need me to recruit you, tell your wife I’m sorry that you’re so needy. Bird and I just split a Margarita Tower (yes, it’s a proper noun) at Gustavo’s. We’ll be there. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/a3aaf7bf-2409-4b7f-9aa1-8f05971f49ab How about Dauber?ContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast, Nest @County 7/30; Cochran Q”

Go ahead and start studying, because tomorrow we’ll pay tribute to Arnold and the Presidential Fitness Test. We will cover some ground, and get a full-body workout, but you won’t need coupons. It will be a morning full of sweat and nostalgia, and I’ll SYITG.

Dauber reached out to request that I use my legal background to give a one-hour lecture tomorrow on the battery of decisions the Supreme Court handed out this week. I rejected that invitation, but agreed to Q.

Four years ago, Abacus headlocked Bird and I for a beautiful Saturday morning Posh beatdown courtesy of Little Jerry.  The rest is history.  Literally.  It happened in the past.  That’s how history works.  Try to keep up.  In celebration of that occasion, Bird and I will Co-Q tomorrow at the County.  The place will beContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast for 9/18/21 Nest @County; Co-Qversary Big Bird & Cochran”

Looking forward to starting the month off with a bang at the Boondocks! Tomorrow will be a great opportunity to show off your new Boondocks duds.

If your shoulders are blasted after Murphing, I’ll cure what ails you. Be sure to set that opportunity clock so you can spend a beautiful morning with friends. And remember that friends don’t let friends skip leg day. No curling bars coupons will be necessary. SYITG.

No need to wait until next week to bask in that co-Q world. Start Advent off right with Cochran and LePew at the Boondocks. It’s not going to be “warm” outside, so we are going to keep moving. No coupons necessary. SYITG.

Ghost Q says no coupons tomorrow. Bring gloves and to be ready to run (away from witches and ghouls). SYITG.

It’s Q School week, which means we are keeping workouts a little simpler. I know you all like a show, but there’s nothing wrong with being basic, and tomorrow we’re all going to be some basics.  Grab a coupon and a pumpkin spice latte and meet Coach Cochran at the Boondocks for some full-body Tabata. SYITG.
