9/12/2018 – The Blender Backblast

After the mass of humanity that showed for the 9/11 backdraft beatdown, I could only wonder if there would be a letdown this morning. I prepared my wienke in a way that it could accommodate 8 or 80. Lucky for me, I got to lead the 8 HIMs that came out and gave there allContinueContinue reading “9/12/2018 – The Blender Backblast”

Back Blast #theBlender 08/15/18

With the first day of school looming, I was hoping to incorporate something from school into today’s weinke.  While having the Pax complete a plank inch work around the building al la carpool came to mind, I wanted to move around.  I was talking to the 2.0’s at lunch yesterday about school and their favoriteContinueContinue reading “Back Blast #theBlender 08/15/18”

The Blender PreBlast: The Presidential Fitness Test – 5:30am Holy Trinty Zima Q

Circa 1956, President Dwight Eisenhower was alerted that thousands of US kids had failed a basic Swiss implemented fitness study.  Panic ensued and shortly thereafter the first version of the Presidential Fitness Test was born.  Fast forward to circa 1987, Mr. Kennedy was advising my fifth grade class on the strategies for mastering the flexedContinueContinue reading “The Blender PreBlast: The Presidential Fitness Test – 5:30am Holy Trinty Zima Q”

McAfee blends up the Mutt – Back Blast – 8.8.18

After a brutal Iron PAX workout yesterday, the Mutt crew might have thought this morning was going to be a little easier. One Mutter even decided to take to social media about their prediction for this morning: With this expectation, I was pumped to bring some of the Posh pain to the Holy Trinity gang.ContinueContinue reading “McAfee blends up the Mutt – Back Blast – 8.8.18”

Back Blast #TheBlender 7/25/18

After falling prey to M’s (not pointing fingers) deceitful ploy to hit Gustavo’s for dinner last night (That’s right, I take no responsibility for the half basket of chips!), I knew this guy needed a special weinke this morning to shed the guilt.  After thinking about all of the things that I most agonized overContinueContinue reading “Back Blast #TheBlender 7/25/18”

7/19 The Extender Backblast: No Grass Here

I’m not going to lie. This is my second Q and I was still nervous about leading the PAX in a 45 minute beatdown.   So I got up an extra 15 minutes early to get my mind and weinke in order. I thought I had a well thought out plan. It was now time toContinueContinue reading “7/19 The Extender Backblast: No Grass Here”

Nine showed up ready to work this morning.  Zima (Q), Sump Pump, Mouth, Water Boy, Tiger, Pepperoni, Hawkeye (DR @f3nashville), Wham-O and Cowbell.

Zima #PreBlast for #TheExtender 7/12/18 at Holy Trinity

Getting back in the gloom this week has been wonderfully miserable and I look forward to sharing that feeling the only way I know how, Q’ing.  Preparation included a torch, pipe insulation, spit, grit, and plenty duct tape.  Come on out and we’ll share some pain and test out some new weinke toys.  #getbetter

Extender Preblast – 6/28/2018 – It’s CI Day at the Mutt Again

I took a break from Q’ing (and a vacation), and now I’m back ready to make friends and influence people by forcing them to do horrible things early in the morning.

Blender PreBlast (6/20): I like to move it, move it

Haven’t seen the Mutt’s new Reflection Path yet (we really need a cooler F3 name for it)?  Come to my first solo Q tomorrow and you’ll get to see every inch of it.  Time to sweat out all the remaining alcohol and food from Father’s Day…. ~MRS. JACKSON

Back Blast from 6/13 The Blender at The Mutt

It was good…or bad…I’m still unsure. But it was a blast! I was a little slow with cadence and not totally clear on exercise instructions.  But that is to be expected leading a group of dedicated men for the first time.  Truth be told I was nervous! One of many things I’ve learned from F3: Getting better isContinueContinue reading “Back Blast from 6/13 The Blender at The Mutt”
