We did two AMRAPs after we warmed up: Clean and Jerks - sets of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25... run 30 yards to tree and back in between each set. Merkins and Squats - sets of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25... complete 30 abs in between each set. I believe our beloved loveseat led the [...]

The Beast
i was surprised when only 7 showed up this morning when we seemingly have been closer to 15 for the past several weeks at renegade. @mattdart78 quickly explained that most probably fartsacked because I mentioned the word run in my pre-blast. Oh well. The workout is called the beast because of the number 6. I [...]
2nd Day of WORK
After @heehaw1 brought the noise on Monday I wanted to make sure I controlled the action for Tuesday's beatdown. I have been out a lot lately for vacations, etc., so I am happy to get back into the swing of things, just a little reluctant to be so SORE! 7 in attendance this morning: @mattdart78, [...]
MONSTER TIRE
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who [...]
Boom Box AMRAP
Failure is not an option, unless it is. Today was all about failure, that was actually the whole point. 3 turned out and I did my best to make the misery enjoyable, with my new Boom Box. @loveseat, @suds, YHC. Warmup- SSH, Don Quixote, Can-Cans, Merkins, Mosey to Sunken-Living Room. Each song was accompanied by [...]
Side Straddle Hops
Great workout with great men. Light warm-up of baby arm circles, squats, 55 side straddle hops (4 count), and 20 Merkins (4 count). Light jog along road to bus lanes where we broke into teams of 2 and finished (partially) 100 Merkins (4 count), 200 crunches, and 300 squats. Ran back to front of school [...]
Relative vs. Absolute
Relatively perfect weather for the 10 PAX who made the wise decision not to sleep in this morning. Started with a light stretch followed by 2 relatively easy “rounds” of exercises. Correction - three relatively easy rounds. First round consisted of 5-reps each of Side Straddle Hops, Squat Jumps, and Merkins, and then a relatively [...]
“The path to greatness is along with others.”
Camaraderie. There is no other explanation. No sane reason why a man would leave the comfort of a warm bed at an unhealthy hour to exercise in the cold. It would have been a lot easier to stay inside and sleep a little longer. But being comfortable isn’t what drives men to keep coming back [...]
Ascent
Five PAX made it out Thursday morning for an easy workout in mild 47-degree weather. Started with a gentle climb up the mountain to gain an elevation of 50 side straddle hops, 50 push-ups, 50 weed pickers, and 50 squats. Light job around the parking lot followed by a slow stroll back down the mountain [...]
