I wore my reflective vest as I predicted that I would have to play "traffic cop" getting everyone to park on the perimeter of the OPES staff parking Lot - I wanted the center of the Lot cleared of all obstacles. Rosebud was first to enter and it took some heavy encouraging to get him [...]
Backblasts
Curves for Men
I don't have ample time this morning to go into this morning's beatdown, because I have to get on the road shortly. Here is my backblast: Disclaimer, explanation that the workout is supposed to work every major body part (and I think I delivered on that). Warmup-SSH, air squat, lateral air squat, Don Quioxte, weed [...]
Dora 1,2,3,1000
As I drove to the AO this morning with a steady rain hitting my windshield, I told myself that if it was only me and one other pax then I’d suggest some solid second F over some hashbrowns at the Waffle House in lieu of a workout. Surely the rain would deter most of the [...]
It was a Do-ah-Diddy kind of morning…
It was weds late morning when CowTipper notified he could not make the next day's Renegade Q. I waited for any takers then started to plan the workout - Do ah Diddy's were making the cut. I arrived 15 minutes early and enjoyed the quiet gloom, resting on a bench as I only slept about [...]

Morning MASS
7 men gathered in the morning humid air that fills our lungs with moist hot air that is perfect for working out. But let me step back, I am there alone, 10 till wondering if anyone will show up. First F3 brother arrives and within minutes says he has to run back home for round [...]
2nd Day of WORK
After @heehaw1 brought the noise on Monday I wanted to make sure I controlled the action for Tuesday's beatdown. I have been out a lot lately for vacations, etc., so I am happy to get back into the swing of things, just a little reluctant to be so SORE! 7 in attendance this morning: @mattdart78, [...]
Ultimate Beach Frisbee
Moseyed to 7th Street and played barefoot ultimate frisbee on the beach. Final score was 8-6 but everyone was a winner with a great workout. Welcome David Britt, aka Flip Phone, from Atlanta.
Arm Circles from Hell
I wanted to do my first Renegade workout without the long distance early morning running (which I hate), do it more intense than a hard run, and that meant intervals of box jumps and shoulder walking (the dreaded Walkdown Merkin and Bear Crawls). And I wanted to show that Arm Circles aren’t just for Warmups anymore…
