 Posted on January 23, 2020  |  2 minutes  |  301 words  |  

Disclaimer- for those that have been to any one of my Q’s in the last year, I usually like to have at LEAST a couple days to write up my Weinke. With Headroom heading out of town and signed up to Q Lions Den that same day, he reached out if I could grab it for my future Q here. Without hesitation I grabbed the spot. 20 Pax arrived on time to find Headroom not here and that I have the Q. [Read More]

 Posted on January 23, 2020  |  3 minutes  |  589 words  |  

AO: Tortoises Date; 1/22/20 PAX: Ashbury, Bubba, Ezekiel, Intimidator, Meatloaf, Rooney, Sega, WWW, Yogi A pre-blast from my boy Ezekiel letting the potential HIMs know that even with the weather forecast of mid to low-20s, I will bring the heat. That is a big challenge statement. I arrived at the AO and the temp did not disappoint, it was a balmy 26⁰. The day prior before a Disco Duck Q, I had visions in my REM sleep of sugarplum fairies dancing and magically waving their wands filling my head full of routines and exercises. [Read More]

Despite the bitter cold, and the bitter taste of defeat (great game, Hokies), YHC headed to Hot for Teacher where eight men gathered for another day of some good ‘ole vanilla.

Warmup: A couple laps around a very nice pickle, merkins, mountain climbers, imperial walkers, good mornings

Thang: Dora (burpees, squats, LBC), hillbarrows, Mary

Another twitter-worthy recap. YHC out.

Given last night’s brawl, YHC led the 14 men at SNS through a rock-centric workout. Not because he is a Kansas fan, or a Kansas State hater, but only because of the word-relation between Rock Chalk Jayhawk and rocks. So after a short warmup and some Nolan Ryans (fighting related) and People’s Chair (Kansas player almost used a chair in the fight), the PAX spent 30 minutes with a pile of rocks. [Read More]

FOD feels incredibly far from my house, but momma didn’t raise no b*tch. As Hermes says, always watch your language, even though you can’t see yourself talking unless you are in a mirror. 24 degrees feels awfully cold unless you have gloves and the warmth of fellowship. You can’t get mad at someone not recognizing you when you are dressed like a ninja. Always pay respect where respect is due. [Read More]

Saw an empty Q spot on Sunday night, so I scooped it up. I knew it was meant to be when I saw Pickles at Wolverine and he needed to pass the flag along. That was heavy! Now I planned this workout while watching the Bachelor last night. There’s always a temptation to bring in some rose-themed flair to the morning, but I took a peek at the date for inspiration.

The new year brings new goals. YHC has not been very good at stepping up to Q as often as I should. So, what do you do about it? You get an accountability partner and make a pack. So, for 2020, YHC and my accountability partner @Deuce will hold each other accountable to Q at least once a month. In that vain, January kicks off the accountability pack with a Co-Q at Dazed and Confused. [Read More]
