Uncle Jesse and the Beach Boys

The proof is in the video.  Uncle Jesse is an honorary Beach Boy.  Additionally, the Beach Boys have a song entitled Barbara Ann, which led to the PAX for RedFriday taking on Barbara.  I believe this to be the first time we attempted said “hero/benchmark” workout and it was a test, particularly for YHC after […]

For Ryan!

Some guys never quit, never even allow the thought of such a blasphemous thing enter the domain of their minds. Ryan Job was one of those guys, a devil for the details; a guy who never took a shortcut. For anything. Ever. YHC was joined by 11 such men this morning to pay honor to […]

A very special #REDFriday

RED Friday is YHC’s favorite workout. Many of the PAX have always believed this was because it was the most intense workout of the week. While that is true (or was since the inception of Fury), I have some very deep and personal reasons. Today, I unleashed the fury – no pun intended – of […]

But wait, there’s still more fun to be had!

5 pax posted to a frigid AO to honor Senior Airman Bradley Smith. This is the workout that was administered on my first RED Friday, which just so happened to be my first F3 workout period.  Since this was my RED Friday VQ, I decided to break it out again to see how much YHC […]

A Bittersweet Symphony

‘Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony, this life… I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down You know the one that takes you to the places where all things meet, yeah… That is part of the chorus from The Verve’s “Bittersweet Symphony.” Those words echoed in my head this morning as I turned […]
