Epicenter 12/8/18
3 men decided to crawl out of the fartsack and made their way to join their brothers in the wet, cold Saturday morning gloom. Meter Maid had signed up to Q but needed to head out early, so I volunteered to take up the second half of the workout. C0-Qs are a great thing and […]
Sort of Like a Jumping Jack

Warm-Up 10 Windmills 20 Shoulder Taps 20 Arm Circles Forward and 10 Backwards (The shoulders would be work aplenty!) The Thang: Each PAX grabbed a weight plate (actually Pendalay […]
Somebody buy Hulk a pair of gloves
YHC decided to take the farewell tour of Thursday at the Epicenter (at least temporarily). YHC knew after Tuesday’s BC that merkins were not going to be involved at all after the amount of merkins that were done since Saturday at Fury. Sorry, Southern Belle since it probably didn’t help you with the monthly challenge. […]

Starfish Challenge
After multiple attempts at securing a Q for today’s BC to no avail, YHC decided to take it and have another go at the Starfish challenge. It’s been awhile and YHC didn’t have time to come up with another workout. So, the challenge was put out on Twitter the night before and 4 PAX came […]
5 Set Thriller
The last time YHC Q’d a BC, YHC realized that the tennis courts are an underutilized feature of the Mothership, so this morning’s beatdown was going to use them. And with the amount of rain that we received last night, the Epicenter was going to be soaked and soggy, so they were even more appealing. […]
Farmers and Fiddys
Conditions- 65° and a cool breeze I rolled in at 5:13 (because it is all the way across town) just in time for the 1 minute warning and disclaimer. Both were given. There were already discussions that I may not make it. Polly immediately started to find a modification for SSH before I even called […]
When Your Over 40
Today was great! The weather, the group, the workout (or at least YHC thought so)! Sometimes things just mix well, like mustard and strawberry jelly on a sausage biscuit (don’t knock until you have tried!) But, it was fun. Off the bat Polly’s windmill sub for side straddle-hops had everyone rolling. Then Juggs and Polly […]
