The Silent Beatdown
YHC ran up to the Hurler launch point to find several pax stretching, so I began my own little stretch routine. Mercedes rolled in and commented about everyone stretching, then asked who is Qing. I responded, “I am,” to which Mercedes said, “Oh…I better start stretching too.” That was the last bit of conversation I […]
Seven of Diamonds @ The Mount
COT at 0530 due to several PAX needing to leave early. The importance of Prayer. It not about you! We circled up and had a 30 second prayer for the man to your left and YHC closed us out. YHC posted @ the Dog Pound in Knoxville, TN a few weeks back and was introduced […]
2.0’s everywhere
Oh man the weather we’ve been having on these mornings is getting us pumped for fall to hurry up and get here. 5 pax including an FNG took out on our week 4 of the August GORUCK challenge. Which was a 3 mile ruck then 3 rounds of partner work. P1 Sprint out 50m while […]
A Coolish Start at Infinity
YHC had read the mumblechatter on Slack yesterday about sick Q’s, who’s going to be Q, and nothing about who was posting. In fact, YHC wasn’t sure if I would post. YHC does, in fact, get out of the ol’ fartsack and made the long .5 mile trek to Infinity. Rolled in to a parking […]
Unstoppable
Little known to the PAX, YHC attempted to make this mornings workout about 3 things; upper body, core, lower body. YHC tried to balance out these three important areas in order for the PAX to receive a full body beatdown. Conditions: Hint of fall The Thang: Warmup IC SSH X 20 ATT X 20 Mountain […]
Emerson’s
Everyone changes their mind but I changed the whole workout during the warm up. I’m sure it happens all the time. One Hurler morning our stage hand Mercedes led us down Dudley Shoals road for a complete workout while stopping all each “pole” for an exercise, so we dubbed it the Emerson’s. This hill is […]
ER: I can’t quit you
By now, if you’ve read one of my ER backblasts, you already know that this AO has a special place in my heart. I won’t go into the why, how, or when on this one. Do me a favor and just don’t tell my M about my love of dirty, skanky, parking lots ok? Fuse […]

Double down in T’town
Wow what a great day for a good ol beatdown at Copperhead Creek. Temps in the mids 60’s and a nice breez in our face. 4 pax decided it would be a good idea to double down this morning. At 0600 the 4 did week 3 of the August GORUCK challange. So just a quick […]
Block work
I pulled up to Prison Break and saw an empty parking lot. What is this? Everyone only skips on PBR’s Qs!! After a few minutes, the PAX started rolling in just in time. And then a few late arrivals made it a nice sized group! With everyone finally out and moving, we got started…. Warmup […]
