The Hive expands to Wednesdays… only once and then the Snake Pit is back

So week one of The Hive’s expansion included a single Wednesday workout before handing it back to 3D’s more than capable hands.  Kielbasa led the beatdown and Shanks showed up and regaled the PAX with stories of bountiful bourbon caches in his home state of Wisconsin…

Four at The Hive for an Anniversary beatdown

One year ago on this day I joined 3D and many other HIMs at what was then known as the Tomahawk at Doby’s Bridge Elementary.  One year later I have posted approximately 250+ times and led the workout in the midst of the Rona…  It was a solid workout, Weinkes were laminated and even signed this time, and a CSPAN approved photo was provided.  One year down, all of them to go…

The Thrill Is Back – At The Hive

It’s been a wild and weird year this year hasn’t it?  I took a break from in person workouts until I got used to this new normal and last year I decided to just go for it and start posting again in person.

UHaul thought it would be a good idea to let me Q again, I guess.  I’m just making up stuff at this point but here’s the real workout.

I call it Double Trouble.

One exercise with the bells, one body weight or with the bell if you feel spunky.

Round 1, 10 each exercise, Round 2 15 and Round 3 25 each of the following:

Swings
Turkish getups

Goblet squats
Flutters

Curls
Merkins

Tricep extensions
Squats

Sumo squat
LBC

Skull crusher
Rosa Lita

Dead lifts
Calf raises

Lawnmowers
American hammers

One arm dead lift
Moroccan night club

Between Round 1 & 2 we ran a bit to the church and back.

Thanks again for the opportunity to lead UHaul.  It’s good to be back out in the gloom.

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

The Hive’s tribute to Osgood’s Pops

It was with deep sadness that we found out on the 26th that Osgood lost his father.  In honor of him, even while dealing with the reality of no ability to literally lean on each other, we came together in the Gloom and did our best to share pain.

Destiny leads from a distance

I don’t remember who was here, where was here, but I do know why we were here – acceleration.  Destiny pushed us and we all appreciated it after it was over, although we did do it at a distance.  That would be the new theme of The Hive, social distance.  We are not so far that we need the internet, but we are far enough to be safe.

Darkest of All Helmets leads pain in sets of 50…

Helmet led a significantly socially distanced workout for the PAX.  I have forgotten one of the PAX, but I cannot remember who…

Somehow we ended up doing 50 of everything because someone might have been 50 years old.  Not sure on this logic, but PAX embraced the suck and did it anyway.
