IPC ‘20 Week 1: Inspector’s Gadget at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.1.20 BackBlast

In your PreBlast you often put out recommendations for the WO, which 98% of the time go completely unknown because who reads PreBlasts?!? In the PreBlast I sent for Week 1 of the IronPAXChallenge I strongly encouraged anyone planning to attend to arrive by 0520 to stretch/loosen up before I walked through the WO inContinue reading "IPC ‘20 Week 1: Inspector’s Gadget at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.1.20 BackBlast"

Pelican BB-IPC @ the County 8.31.20

Started off week 1 way better than week 0. I was on time and present-from there it went completely downhill. I did make one good decision as yesterday Jolly Rancher and I set the location for the playground since rain was in the forecast. The plan was to keep the electronics and the early arrivingContinue reading "Pelican BB-IPC @ the County 8.31.20"

We have a workout planned that we hope the late John ThompsonContinue reading "9/1/20 Pre-blast: Tidwell & Cratchit co-Q the Loco at the County"

Back Blast – The Silo @North Posh

They Came!  They Saw!  They Conquered!!! In this case "they" was Eto.  Having small crew didn't distract.  After a small warm up, we took a mosey down to the portico for protection from any rain and started a routine alternating from lower body, core, upper body. With about 15 minutes remaining and no rain, weContinue reading "Back Blast – The Silo @North Posh"

IPC 2020 Week 1 at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.1.20 PreBlast

This is pretty straightforward, we’ll be doing this WO tomorrow at The Garden. I’ll take care of the timer so all you need to do is show up...preferably a little earlier than maybe you normally would.

BB- The Nest 8/29/20 Meter Q

Earlier in the week, I had been marketing the Nest workout as a modified sandbag Murph. Pelican kept calling it a “Sandy Murphy Rucky” thing. I wasn’t sure how well it would go over with the PAX. All in all 18 PAX came for this difficult workout. Yoshi came to the County for the firstContinue reading "BB- The Nest 8/29/20 Meter Q"

Back-Blast Friday 08/28/2020 – Tour of Pleasantville

It was fantastic to be back out at North County (aka Pleasantville) this morning.  It was clear, cool, light breeze, and zero humidity...kinda.
