A-M-E-R-I-C-A / 6-14

In celebration of Flag Day, the PAX at Dante’s Peak paid tribute to America and Old Glory on a crisp Apex morning. Warm up A quick mosey around most of the soccer field – circle up in the middle SSHs Sir Fazios – front and back Merkins Plank jacks Good mornings The Thang Playing off of the June 14th date (6-14), YHC developed a beatdown encompassing these numbers and A-M-E-R-I-C-A. The PAX enjoyed a tour of both sides of Apex Nature as we stopped intermittently to do the following: [Read More]

Mini Murph

January 18th, 2019 YHC was an FNG (EH’d by Banana Seat) at Dante’s Peak. Almost 5 months later my VQ date had arrived. Most cadence counting was done correctly. . . 24 PAX showed up for a beautiful 70 degree morning with all the humidity central North Carolina can throw at us. Disclaimer I am not a professional, in fact I’ve never done this before, Frisco has limited assets and you are welcome to them, but you probably already have nicer stuff. [Read More]

I Did It All For The Q-zie

16 PAX fought off the post-Murph fartsack at Full Metal Jacket this morning, greeted by warm air and a beautiful sunrise. YHC pulled into the lot right at 0529 and promptly gave the “one minute” warning. My mind swam as I tried to figure out what to do next. You see, the night before, I learned I was Q-ing via slack. This isn’t the first time this has happened (and certainly won’t be the last), but as I looked around the PAX, I noticed a few unfamiliar faces and I didn’t want to disappoint. [Read More]

Last workout of the week

20 Pax hit up the Naturest of all Parks in Apex for a Friday morning beatdown. YHC pre-blasted that we’d be using the pull-up bars and the turf. Let’s see how it went down. 0545 - Disclaimer and Pledge Warmup - No signature warm up. Instead we pranced the parking lot back and forth with butt kickers, high knees, shuffles, karaoke, and a couple warm up exercises. Thang 1 - We headed to the pond and partnered up, each getting a rock. [Read More]

50 Ways to Saturday Midnight Convoy on a S.W.A.T. Rollercoaster while You Shake that Funky Boogie Duck Fever

Taking a page from Smokey’s playbook (although truth be known I had been planning this for years and YEARS so… yeah), YHC wanted to bring a soundtrack to this morning’s beatdown. Sadly, it turns out 1976 was quite a transitional year. The world was introduced to the Space Shuttle and the Concorde as people were not longer satisfied with the regular ways of getting from point A to B. Now we needed to do it in style! [Read More]

Circles and Compasses

28 HIM show-up in the gloom expecting an epic Yogi beatdown. Well, some plans are meant to change and YHC has stepped up to take the Q. Weclome FNGs Quidditch and Double Dutch. After a mumbling, bumbling disclaimer and pledge at the flag, we head left and to the large circle for: Warm Up Good mornings Cotton Pickers Steve Earls Arm twirly thingies including behind the back. The Thang The first of the many tangs actually starts at the end of warm-up with 5 monkey humpers and 5 burpees OYO. [Read More]

Hello Kitty Q'd Dante's Peak on a Friday in Apex

I’ll admit, sometimes I still flip on the ole GPS to get me out to DP, but when I get there I’m reminded at just how glorious this site is. A few hombres showed up at 0510 for ECP and laps. The only way to get better at pull-ups is to do more pull-ups. Aye! Back to the lot around 5:35 for record PUT6 w/ The Commish. Episode available HERE. [Read More]

It's Better When Sooey Is Here

Another dark, rainy, gloomy Carpex morning, perfect conditions for a Duck. Warm-Up Mosey down to the end of the parking lot and circle up for hillbillies, burpees, cotton pickers, Sir Fazios, copperhead merkins and copperhead squats. The Thang Mosey over to the railings between the soccer fields for Australian pull-ups and irkins, starting at 10, descending down to 1, but making the last round 10 reps again, just for fun.

Recycled Q

When YHC performed his final posting of the Old Q summary to slack, there was an opening at one of his top AO’s. It’s been quite a while since the PAX has been subjected to a Hotspot Q, so YHC signed up before sending out a fully filled in Qlist for the week. Well, Thursday night rolled around, and there was a plan that needed to be written. YHC grabbed my dusty Weinke from the garage, and pulled out one of the many slips in there. [Read More]
