BackBlast Nothing beats Burpees on the Beach

Nothing beats Burpees on the Beach

I really love coming to this AO, I don’t get to very often but having the beach really adds an extra element of suck to my workouts. As usual my workouts focus on HIIT style training mixing in a substantial amount of running and total body exercises, hopefully the Qs are continuing to get better …

BackBlast Good Times in North Myrtle

Good Times in North Myrtle

Lots of Q spots open with Timeshare still growing.  I saw a Tweet from Beaker last night that he EHed the dads at the Flag Football tryouts and thought there was a possibility of several coming out this morning.  With this in mind I was not sure what the Winkie would look like so I …

BackBlast 45 Seconds. Timeshare 9/12/17

45 Seconds. Timeshare 9/12/17

Short Version: Windy Post Irma.  Meet at parking garage.  Everyone’s late.  Crayola drives by YHC 2X then goes AWOL. Pacman showed YHC a great HIIT app.  That’s all we did. Except planking. YHC had  completely non motivational music choices and 2.0’s giant glowing speaker.  It was humid in the garage. 2 rounds of 45 sec …

BackBlast Buckets of Fun!

Buckets of Fun!

YHC arrived early and took a mosey down to the beach to survey the land. Made towards a large blob on the beach, thinking it was a leftover tent and was going to deposit it in the rubbish bin. Much to my surprise, it was not a tent, but a blanket covering a couple of …

BackBlast No, we said the pedal on the left, not right! Timeshare 09/05/17

No, we said the pedal on the left, not right! Timeshare 09/05/17

With no Q on the schedule, YHC decided that with no Q stepping up, we would just make everyone Q it thanks to inspiration  from Dredds Q-source 3.15 on OPPORTUNITY.  As you will find out that could have been very, very painful without some re-direction. It was a great time of learning and getting better …

BackBlast Ab-i-licious – Timeshare 08/31/17

Ab-i-licious – Timeshare 08/31/17

YHC’s neck and shoulder had been acting up again most likely from a mixture of #spreadsheeting at work and excessive burpees and merkins over the summer.  Therefore YHC decided to put the upper body on IR and #DoSomething decidedly not upper body (or lower body for that matter.) Which leaves us with 45 min of Mary. …

Get Your Hands In The Air! Timeshare 8/17/17

YHC was in town on business, and staying more toward the timeshare side of town.  A quick inquiry regarding the address of the AO quickly turned into a guest Q and the rest is history.   I’d heard there was a patch involved, and there’s not alot I won’t do for a patch.  I wasn’t …
