So you won't get to play with my balls, or steer my ship, but we will venture out and around. No coupons will be needed, but there will be individual team work. Don't know what I mean by individual team work, well then come find out and enjoy the total body blast! Viking

The choice is yours. Get up and get better or not. Tomorrow at the O all those in attendance will have chosen to get better. Make sure you’re one of them (and bring that FNG you’ve been working on for a while). No coupons needed! SYITG Stick Up

No surprises at The Station tomorrow.  If you have ever been to one of my Qs, you know what to expect...we will move around the Station grounds quite a bit (i.e. running & such) and keep the heart rate high.  No coupons.  SYITG - Dauber

Q: Diablo PAX: (13) Brown Water, Brown Tail, Focker, Moab, Cartman, Pelican, Holy Roller, Honeydew, Launch Pad, Asian Zing, Giselle; Dauber, Diablo Man, I arrived at The County this fine morning with perfect weather, an old school workout, a loud speaker, and a solid playlist from Rocky training montages, Kid Rock, and Motley Crue. IContinue reading "Diablo BackBlast The Foundry at The County 9/16/20"

We started the morning with a 6AM pre Fog ruck. Dauber, Meter Maid, No Nuts, and YHC was there for the ruck. We got about 3 miles in. Good work fellas. I was happy to be back out at the Fog. It had been about 6 months since I was last at Posh on aContinue reading "BB – The Fog @ Poshlands 9/12/20"

I woke up to a cool and crisp morning...51 degrees out my way in Crestwood. In preparation (while dreaming of the WO) for today’s Q, I wanted to do something that did not involve Merkins or Squats. I wanted to keep the PAX moving the whole time with the least amount chest/bicep work. We didContinue reading "BB – Escalator @ The Abyss 9/16/20"

So last week when I Q’d the day after IPC I said I never would do that again. Little did I realize that I had already signed up to Q the Boondocks this week the day after IPC Week 3. Ok I totally realized it but whatever. If you haven’t been to the Boondocks beContinue reading "BB Pelican Q @ the Boondocks 9.15.20"

Get ready for some exercise stations and interval running. We will focus on core and legs, with most of the exercises geared to raise your heart rate. No coupons needed. Come out and join me...SYITG, Backflop Q

While I can’t find a slab of beef for you to punch tomorrow at The County, I will be bringing an old school workout to prepare you for that next battle you must face, whether it’s Apollo, Clubber Lang, communist invaders, or the damn lawn mower that needs to be pulled a few extra timesContinue reading "Diablo PreBlast for The Foundry at The County 9/16/20"

This past Friday marked one year since my first post. Come out to The O in the morning and join in the celebration while I drop a beatdown on all in attendance. No coupons necessary but your arms, legs, core, and lungs will have plenty to complain about. Bring a positive attitude and the willContinue reading "Pre-blast: 9/15/20 – Bag of Wrenches @ The O – Handbook 1 Year Postiversary Q"

So week 3 was much easier to set up than week 2. We already have use the 400m loop for 2 weeks during IPC (counting the practice week) and you only needed a little bit of space for the work. Besides running you had to memorize 2 exercises and just drop 10 reps each round.Continue reading "IPC Week 3 at the County 9.14.20"

Outside HIMs must be afraid of the dark. PAX: Mr. Hat, Uncle Sam (R), Harbaugh (Q) At 0530, gave introduction and disclaimer. Thang 1: Prisoner Run down to the boat ramp. Killer B’s Round of 11s. Burpees, Bernie Sanders, Big Boys. Thang 2: AMRAP with and without coupon. 1:00 on, :20 rest. Walked back toContinue reading "Backblast: Harbaugh Q at The Abyss: 9.14.2020"

PAX:DynomiteRippleBuzzsawRussdiculousLadybirdJitterbugIcemanJewelUncle RicoBob RossPewPewStick Up (Q) This was one of those mornings were I realized the night before as I laid down for bed MY Q was in the morning. So instead of planning something, I decided to wing it in the morning. This is what I came up with. COP:25 SSH (IC)15 Grass Grabber (IC)15Continue reading "9.9.20 BB The Bridge @ Poshlands"

Here’s the WO for tomorrow, which is pretty straightforward. Again, due to time constraints we will NOT do a CoP & will start right at 0530 so I encourage any/all planning to participate to arrive by 0520. At 0520 I will walk through the WO, the setup, & this is your time to stretch, getContinue reading "IPC 2020 Week 3: K.I.S.S. at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.15.20 PreBlast"

Didn’t follow my own advice and picked up another Q the day after IPC. Not 100% sure what we will be doing but I know what it won’t be (merkins/squats). Bring a coupon and be ready for Pelican to show you some love. SYITG Pelican

Bring a coupon. Bring your desire to get better. Bring your camera to catch the sunrise. Gloves recommended. SYITG!

Fortitude by Dan Crenshaw Lots of gains and minimal running. Not a normal north posh workout. Which is why you should come. Bring your coupon.

Eight HIMs graced the dark grounds of The Abyss: Double Down (R), Huggies, Wildflower, Curious George, F-Stop (FNG), Captain Crunchberry, Whiskers, & Mr. Hat. We did the IPC Week 2 Madness, and in the darkness of The Abyss and the haziness of recovering from manmakers, I couldn't tell who finished first, but I'm certain CatfishContinue reading "IPC Week 2 @ The Abyss Backblast"

Hats off to F3Greenwood & the IPC Crew for this WO...it was a beast. Last Sunday when the week 2 WO dropped I watched the 23 minute video & a couple things came to mind: this WO is going to suck (in a good way)creating a “wheel” overcomplicates this thing...especially if you have 10+ PAXContinue reading "IPC ‘20 Week 2 RESULTS from 🍀The Garden🍀 9.10.20 BackBlast"

I believe most of us were sleep deprived when we awoke on 9/12/01.  Nineteen years ago, I was a sophomore at Worcester State University. The attacks on America really shook me. The campus was closed, and this young, naive, careless student quickly turned scared, anxious and curious. As the hours and days unfolded people, IContinue reading "BB: Gisele Q the Nest at the County 9.12.20"

The PAX after the WO. Humbled to lead these men on a day like today. 293 helmets behind the PAX and 50 in front with exercises listed. As noted in my pre-blast, I signed up to Q this workout several weeks ago when it was still a BlackOps. In the weeks leading up to theContinue reading "Back Blast – 09/11/2020 – Jolly’s #343 FDNY Remembrance Q – The Baptizer @ The Garden"

This PB comes on a day where many of us are reflecting on the horrific events of 9/11. I first want to acknowledge this day and those of you that have been impacted or know someone who has. These are the times that allow this group to showcase what we're all about - getting better, supportingContinue reading "Pre Blast – Russdiculous Q @ The Ruiner"

Come shake the rust off and get your feet moving with Backflop. We will be running with mixed in PT. Bring a coupon for some pre-running coupon work. It will be fun and I look forward to being back out to the Fog! SYITG - Backflop

It is hard to believe it has been 19 years since the attacks on America 9/11/01. The iconic twin towers, a symbol of what America stood for taken down to ash and rubble in minutes. As I awoke in my dorm room on September the 12th, classes cancelled, images of what happened flooding the tv,Continue reading "PB: The Nest @ The County 9/12"

This back blast is posted on behalf of Tidwell, a younger PAX who has made his mark on the County, particularly since workouts reopened in June. He's posted more often, is getting stronger, and is also getting more resilient toward the end of each workout as the year continues. Sept 1, 2020 was his secondContinue reading "Back Blast 1-Sept-2020 Tuesday the Loco at the County – Tidwell & Cratchit Co-Q"

As I mentioned in my PB, I would make mention of the alarming numbers of Veteran Suicides. Several years ago there was a push-up challenge. There were an average of 22 Veteran Suicides a day. So people were challenging to do 22 push-ups and so forth. The numbers haven’t appreciably changed. I was challenged byContinue reading "BB – 9/10/2020 the Inferno at the Station"

Jewel announced he needed a Q on 09/11 a few weeks ago when The Baptizer was still a BlackOps - and I jumped at the opportunity given the profound significance of the date. I know the IPC took place at The Garden today and having completed that nonsense on Monday at The County, I sympathizeContinue reading "Pre-Blast – Jolly’s FDNY Tribute on 09/11/2020 – The Baptizer @ The Garden"
