YHC went out on a limb and asked to change the start time for a Friday (no work for most) Black Ops. I was rewarded with 6 other dedicated HIM who would join me for what might be known as an incredibly stupid workout. Disclaimer- NOT a Professional COP- the usual suspects, SSH, Copperhead Squats,Continue reading “7.3.20 BB- BO at The Garden”

Went to bed not looking forward to what the old weather app was telling me would be a very wet post. Pleasantly surprised when I walked out to find minimal rain…now, hopefully the forecast didn’t scare off the PAX. It turns out that I would be the last to pull in the parking lot atContinue reading “6.29.20 BB North Posh”

Not sure if I am the only one, but I always feel a sense of pride when someone reaches out directly to ask me to Q at a different AO. It is always an honor to lead the PAX of F3 Louisville, but when you’re asked to travel outside your norm to Q, to meContinue reading “6.24.20 BB- The Escalator at the Abyss”

I posted at The Abyss for the 1st time last week… what a place. Looks like we are going to have a great morning weather wise, which means the sunrise over the lake will be unmatched by any other AO in F3Louisville. So come out and see what all the hype is about. Bring aContinue reading “6.24.20 Pre-Blast @ The Abyss w/ Jewel”

BEWARE ALL WHO ENTER THE FOG…or something like that. There aren’t many better places to start a Saturday off than The Parklands. It provides for some incredible scenery…and a nice sunrise. The weather was perfect.

PAY HEED ALL WHO ENTER, BEWARE OF THE FOG!!! When Mr. Kotter made a plea to the PAX at the Incubator Monday for someone to pick up the Q at the Fog this weekend, I couldn’t not hook the man up! He’s like, the realest, nicest guy out there… so, you’re stuck with me. Also,Continue reading “6.13.2020 @ The FOG”

I always really enjoy hitting up new AO’s…it’s so easy to stick with what’s close and easy, but I always seem to enjoy when I post new places. When Worm asked me to Q the first Vets relaunch, I knew I couldn’t pass it up, and that I’d need to bring the suck. PAX- 8Continue reading “BB- Big Mo @ Vets”

Not much has changed since the last pre-blast I’ve written… We don’t get up for easy. The gloom belongs to us. If you post in the morning at Vets (or anywhere) you will get better. You will sweat a lot and maybe cuss me by the time 0615 rolls around. See? Not much has changed.Continue reading “BIG MO- Vets 6.1.20”

Welp, I did it… I finally fart sacked a Q on F3’s birthday no less. I was so excited, and then I totally screwed it up. I owe all the HIM that woke up that morning an apology. So, when Russdiculous (my all-time favorite F3 name) asked me to cover Friday morning, I jumped atContinue reading “Back Blast – 4.24.20 – The Mist w/ Jewel”

On the 14th, Handbook asked for people to step up to Q. I told him to sign me up for whatever was needed. He gave me 4.22. Then told me that was F3’s birthday, and asked if we should celebrate with Kraken burpees (he may or may not be a glutton for punishment). Can’t letContinue reading “4.22 – Birthday Pre- Blast”

Let me say this, I miss the Gloom. I miss getting out there running around the County, the Posh, and especially those damn hills at the Garden. I miss pushing myself to catch up with whoever is in front of me, which is usually most of the people posting on any given morning. But, theContinue reading “Back Blast 4.13 – The Mist”

I hope you have all had a wonderful, healthy and safe Easter Sunday with your family. I pray that each of you and yours stay healthy, both mentally and physically during this unprecedented time in our world’s history. To help with the physical health, we are going to wake up early, and get after it,Continue reading “4.13 Mist WO w/ Jewel”

The weather is perfect to get out in your driveway and creep your neighbors out. We are going to have a little fun with iPads, computers, and wait for it… COUPONS!!! We might do a little Tabata too. We will get better. We will work hard. Bring a weight. Bring a friend. Bring your workContinue reading “The Mist 3.27.20 w/ Jewel”

The morning started off with a slight technical difficulty caused by yours truly… I had set up my own Zoom meeting, and made things more complicated for my fellow PAX, and for that, I apologize. Harbaugh and Handbook were on time, and ready. The rest of the PAX trickled in as they navigated the inviteContinue reading “BB – The Zoom 3.25.20 w/ Jewel”

What a time to be alive. There’s certainly a lot that has changed in the last few weeks. There are multiple new AO’s to choose from, due to some incredible hard work and determination by talented and dedicated PAX. There’s also a new AO that was born out of caution and necessity. I for one,Continue reading “The Mist – VAO w/ Jewel 3.25.20”

It had been a while since I made it to the Posh, since my last Q at the Fog. I knew I wanted to come up with something different. When the news of our fellow HIM Rocky came out, and there was a push to spend the week supporting him, I knew I wanted toContinue reading “BB – 3.11 @ The Bridge”

We are going to continue to pray for our man Rocky’s continued health, and celebrate some great news for him. Wear black and a bandanna. Oh, and be ready to get better. We ain’t getting up for easy. Also, it’s 311 day…so the music will be on point. SYITG- Jewel

It never ceases to amaze me. Every time I post, no matter where it is, there’s someone there that inspires me with their hard work, their dedication to get better. Are there always multiple men ITG that are pushing to get better, absolutely. But I am talking about that one, you can just see inContinue reading “BB – 2.25.2020 The Cliffs @ The Garden”

Come on out to the Cliffs tomorrow. I’ve got two workouts lined up… one if it rains, and one if it doesn’t. If it rains, we will take our friends the coupons to Camp St. Patrick and do our best to stay dry, if it isn’t raining too hard- we will see all The GardenContinue reading “2.25.2020 – The Cliffs @ The Garden – Jewel Q”

Your YHC woke up in a panic at 6:28AM…not the way you want to start a Q day. I rushed through the morning routine and pulled in the parking lot with about 9 minutes to spare… and I was the first one. Splendid. It was COLD… car said 13…I was absolutely not going to checkContinue reading “BB – 2/15/2020 – The Fog at The Poshlands”

I was looking for a theme for tomorrow, it turns out the day after Valentine’s Day is “Singles Awareness Day” but that’s not how we roll, “Leave no man behind, but leave no man where you found him.” So this will be a partner workout. Bring a friend. Also, it is going to be coldContinue reading “2.15.20 – The Fog @ The Posh”

It never ceases to amaze me the HIM that show up to dominate a WO that is unbeknownst to them when they wake up. All they know is a place and a time. They show up, dominate, support, push, and ultimately make every other person’s day better, just by being there. I can’t thank theContinue reading “BB – The Silo @ North Posh 2.2.20”

Is the Super Bowl awesome? Yes. Are the countless snacks and ‘tizers and tasty adult beverages with friends just as awesome (or maybe slightly better)? Yes. Is starting the week off right w/ your F3 brothers even better? You better believe it. We will work off at least 2-3 trips to the buffet tomorrow ITGContinue reading “Pre-Blast 2.3.2020- North Posh an ode to one of the greatest comedic actors of our time.”

As I said in the PB (which I know most don’t read- not that BB’s are read more frequently) that the County was a special place. It’s special because of the HIMs that call it home. A place that took a random 2nd post guy and treated him like a brother immediately. I appreciate allContinue reading “Back Blast – 1/18 @ The County: Jewel Q”

My first post ever was the now infamous Yoga WOat the Garden. I’d heard so much about how hard the workouts were, I had to give it another go. I showed up at the County for my next post without knowing a soul. They welcomed me with open arms. This is a special AO. I’mContinue reading “1/18/20- Pre-Blast Birthday-ish Q @ the County”
