Preparation at the Armory
19 PAX at The Armory Workout is pretty clear from the outline I think. We ran a bit in between the reps for the Thang.....at an allegedly fast pace....pretty sure it was slow on the Fish Sticks scale. Also we did 60…

First Timer at the Hive
Always fun to Q a workout your not overly familiar with so figured I'd give the pax a little something different than what they're used to in a kettlebell workout. Special thanks to Shady who brought his arsenal of KB's…

Bottoms Up at the Hive
About a year ago, YHC successfully evaded a request from Tesh to Q at the Hive, citing lack of experience at a kettlebell AO – and a lack of a kettlebell – as sufficient reason to decline. He never asked again. Band…

It was a balmy 52 and rainy when I woke up, and the temperatures were dropping. I grabbed my rain jacket and hit the road. Dark, rainy driving is somewhat peaceful in a way. Just focus on the road and you should be…
