BB: Big Mo Heavy @ Vets 17May2021

Better late than never. A week later Im getting to this Back-blast. It has been some week! The WOD takes inspiration from my two a day workouts, my military experience, consideration of the AOs location and a look ahead to memorial day. We began with a warm up that consisted of the usual SSHs andContinueContinue reading “BB: Big Mo Heavy @ Vets 17May2021”

Back Blast – The Nest at The County – 05/22/2021

Saturday workouts are still my favorite. Perhaps it’s the 60-minutes of suck. Or, perhaps it is because everyone is that much more awake so the mumblechatter is that much more lively. Or, is it the 2.0s that typically make their way with their dads out to The Nest? Maybe it’s a little of each ofContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Nest at The County – 05/22/2021”

Pre-Blast – The Nest at The County – 05/22/2021

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – but, the Nest at The County is special. Don’t know why yet? Then come on out tomorrow and find out for yourself. BRING YOUR RUCK. If you have extras, bring them, too, for others that may not have one, please. We’ll stay on campus soContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – The Nest at The County – 05/22/2021”

Back Blast – The Chopper at Vets – 05/21/2021

As noted in my pre-blast, there’s something calming about posting at the Vets. Perhaps it’s the gentle soothing noise of Meatball’s cadence of passing gas. Or, perhaps it’s Violet’s authoritarian voice which calms all fears. Or, maybe it’s Worm’s constant bickering and moaning about actually doing a work out. Either way, it’s always a goodContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Chopper at Vets – 05/21/2021”

Delayed Back Blast – Moonshiner at The Boondocks – 05/13/2021

A little delayed on the back blast…maybe writing back blasts are kind of like wedding gifts. You have a full year after the wedding to deliver the gift. Let’s go with that. That makes me feel a little better about my tardiness. PAX: SwagHoney DoFlexsealBulletin (R)DauberCratchitTidwellYankovic (R)Boss Hog (R)Jolly Rancher (Q) Time was called andContinueContinue reading “Delayed Back Blast – Moonshiner at The Boondocks – 05/13/2021”

BB Holy Roller Q – The Big Kapowski @ Bayside

What a beautiful morning for a drive to Shelby County to hang out with the Studs at Bayside. Goal was to form memories by engaging all of our senses. When that happens our memories get to our hippocampus (that’s where our long term memories reside). So we saw the 2 boards with only 4 exercisesContinueContinue reading “BB Holy Roller Q – The Big Kapowski @ Bayside”

PB- Holy Roller Q – Big Kapowski @ Bayside

PB: 5-20-21 Moonshiner at the Boondocks

I always have enjoyed my time at the Boondocks. Everything about it sounds like summer. Clear, dark skies, the stars, baseball diamonds and the constant sounds of banjos and squealing. We will get after it tomorrow and hopefully you leave in a “transcendent state”. Bring a coupon, a can do attitude and feel free toContinueContinue reading “PB: 5-20-21 Moonshiner at the Boondocks”

5.17.2021 BB The Minuteman at the Patriot

This was my debut at the Patriot. What better way to start out than leading a workout at a place where you have not been. I heard great things about the uniqueness of this site and it did not disappoint. The scene was set with the flag already placed by Focker prior to his departureContinueContinue reading “5.17.2021 BB The Minuteman at the Patriot”

Back Blast – North Posh – 5.17.21

Every year on or around my birthday I like to Q one of my favorite workouts, Lake of Fire. This workout is simple but shows off the awesome landscape that makes up the North Posh site. If you aren’t familiar, there are a few lakes/ponds at the site that have trails around them. One ofContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – North Posh – 5.17.21”
