Find accountability in your life
YHC was called out of the bullpen to assist the originally scheduled Q - Crab Cakes since he was bi-coastal. Leading up to the morning WO, YHC struggled to figure out what to include in the weinke. The only thing that…

If you build it, they will come..
The weather forecasts leading up to Slow Burn showed what could have been a soggy outing. In preparation, I made sure I had not one, but two Weinke's prepared for the PAX. One bringing back a popular game from College…

If in Tega Cay you utilize hills and RUN
YHC took the message from Maxims at Tuesday's Beyond WO to heart. We all find reasons to not push through difficult times; if thats a workout, raising kids, marriage, we tend to find a reason to give up or divert what…

The G.R.I.N.C.H. Posts to Colosseum
18 pax showed up at Colosseum to steal Christmas back from the GRINCH. Though not a regular at this AO, YHC jumped at the chance to pinch-hit for Pusher. And being so close to Christmas, it'd almost be a sin to not have…

Slow Burn - Solid to the Core
So, it was a fairly nice morning, especially when you consider it is December 1st! I was able to workout in shorts and a t-shirt, so really...who can complain about that? After reading Popeye's back blast from down in…

Apologies for no video name-o-rama, my phone batt

Election Day - Do you know about Pennies for Progress???

Light Pole Lane - a Colosseum BB for 10/24/17
Well... it was another day in paradise at The Colosseum. THANG: Mosey lap around the pickup loop in front of the school, then circle up at the end of "light pole lane". I don't know that I've ever heard anyone call it…

Trucker Strong
Its been awhile since I had an opportunity to Q the Ranch, so dug into my bucket of go-byes to find something that I haven't done or other Q's haven't done in a while. Sometimes it is just as fun to bypass pull-ups and…

GC RUCK - 9/19 - RUCK HEAVY
Alright Pax, get ready for a ride. It was a great day to Ruck, wait actually everyday is a great day to Ruck. As we stood around waiting for the 5:15 call I heard Trucker say, "I know this is going to be a heavy one, I…

"Make him curl up in the fetal position"
Twitter is a great way to nudge PAX to post, or in my view call out PAX who haven't posted to the Armory in ages. The second best thing about Twitter is that other PAX reply with announcements that an FNG is posting and…

The Armory - Rain or No Rain...that is the question
17 men came to pick things up and put them down at The Armory. I thought for sure the crowd would be light considering it was "moist" on the ground. However the PAX never disappoints and the cars came rolling in one…

Trucker brings pain to the ARMory
YHC enjoys Qing the Armory since it requires coupons (ie Kettlebells). A great selective PAX came out to support YHC on a colder than normal morning. Disclaimer was said and in order to keep the PAX warm, jumped right…

The Moderate Colosseum
