PreBlast – Vincent B-day Q@ the Rooster 7/14

Tomorrow is the anniversary of my birth.  What better way to celebrate than to come out to the Rooster and run through my VQ.  It's been a long time since that work out was used.  It's old... just like me.  We will be using coupons but will stay 6' apart.   Bring your own orContinue reading "PreBlast – Vincent B-day Q@ the Rooster 7/14"

7.14.20 PB – The Loco at the County

Come celebrate with me at The County - this will be my 400th post!  Thanks to Tron for keeping track - not sure how he does it!   We may do 400 burpees (Holly Roller would like that) or we may just enjoy a good beat down to start off our Tuesday.  Either way, I hopeContinue reading "7.14.20 PB – The Loco at the County"

Back-Blast Friday 07/10/2020 – Dauber at The Chopper

As you might remember from my pre-blast, this was my first...oh forget it...it was clear during COP that none of these otherwise exceptional PAX in attendance had read the pre-blast. Back to that in a moment.  Let me restart from the top...10 PAX in total arrived and circled around the Vets seal where the disclaimer was given, includingContinue reading "Back-Blast Friday 07/10/2020 – Dauber at The Chopper"

BB- Blacks Ops PT Training at O – Meter Maid Q

I agreed to Q earlier this week. I had drawn up a plan last tonight to do 11s on the tennis court and run with our rucks around a short track. I wasn’t sure what the numbers would be given all of the other options for Friday morning. One things for sure it was hotContinue reading "BB- Blacks Ops PT Training at O – Meter Maid Q"

Backblast—7.10.2020–Wisteria @Pleasantville—Harbaugh’s Casino Night

It was muggy as I drove through the streets of Pleasantville. Got lost... again. May need to install a Bat Signal. Found the amphitheater and walked around the park, counting light poles. What else are you supposed to do when you’re 30 minutes early? HIMs began arriving. Jitterbug (R), Holy Roller (R), Double Down (R),Continue reading "Backblast—7.10.2020–Wisteria @Pleasantville—Harbaugh’s Casino Night"

PreBlast- 7/10/20 Black Ops GrowRuck PT Training with Meter Maid @ The O

If you haven’t signed up for GrowRuck in October, you should. If you want to train for it, come on out to the O. Bring your rucks, gloves and a can do attitude. This workout will get your heart rate up. -Meter Maid

Pre-Blast Friday 07/10/2020 – Dauber at The Chopper

It has been a while since I posted at Vets and this is actually my first Q there, so I am pretty pumped up to bring "Dauber to the Chopper" on Friday 0530.  I'll be bringing with me a fast-paced, high-tempo, full-body beatdown.  Heart rate will be elevated and we will likely mix in aContinue reading "Pre-Blast Friday 07/10/2020 – Dauber at The Chopper"

BB The Big Kapowski @ Bayside 07.09.2020

When all else fails, the age old advice to "keep it simple stupid" remains relevant. The intent behind today's WO was to keep it simple and focus on the heart. At 72 degrees and 97% humidity, the PAX was sure to sweat today.

Back Blast “Road Kill” 9-Jul-2020 Thursday the Inferno at the Station 05:30 Crock Pot Q

Animals and roads seldom mix well. In the vast majority of (witnessed) cases, the animals are doing one of two things: lying still or moving fast. We attempted to SAFELY recreate that scenario today. PAX were the animals either staying still or moving fast. Foley Ave was the street that would be our venue. PAX:Continue reading "Back Blast “Road Kill” 9-Jul-2020 Thursday the Inferno at the Station 05:30 Crock Pot Q"

QIC: CI Pax (9): Deuce, Handbook, Butcher, Pixar, Tin Cup, Jitterbug (R), Wham!, Pinecone, CI. Not included, but perhaps important to note is that Mrs. Tron was at the same park leading a workout of no less than 50, dropping Ric Flair Woo's with banging music. So, we'll call it 59. Conditions: Murky. Deuce saidContinue reading "Temple of Gloom Backblast – Mostly on the Fly"

PAX: Hush Puppy, Pelican, Dauber, Meter Maid, Focker, Crachit, Crockpot, Overflow (VQ) At 5am hush puppy gave me a nice greeting with a “what’s up overflow?” We then proceed to head off Beulah church road to the Snyder freeway over to the county.
