There will be a little running involved but almost no upper body. Wear gloves if you need them to doContinue reading "Agony 11.12 PB – Leg Day with Alexa"

It will be too cold to put the top down on the convertible, but the weather will be perfect for some good, old-fashion cardio. Plan to move, a lot. Minimal running, heavy cardio/HIIT. Gloves are a good idea. I plan to hold true to the Mutt-brand value proposition: dry shoes and minimal counting. Come getContinue reading "Pre-blast, Extender @ The Mutt 11/12/20"

I volunteered to Q the Blender yesterday and then checked the forecast later. Rain. We lucked out and the rain had moved through just leaving wet pavement.

It’s great to get back out to the O tomorrow. I will keep with the high heart-rate, high intensity theme from my last few Q’s. We will start slow and ramp up quickly to maintain peak performance heart-rate level. That means running and ground work. You will be better for it in the end. NoContinue reading "Pre-blast, ToG @ The O 11/12/20 @05:30"

YHC rolled up to theO and immediately noticed a packed parking lot. Either the crossfit team decided to get out of bed on time or YHC has a strong to quite strong milkshake. Turns out milkshakes were in order for 23 studs on a perfect 60* BoW Tuesday in November. Once we determined that weContinue reading "11/10 BoW backblast KiloQ"
