Suggestions for Next Week?



How are we feeling folks? Last night was great. I woke with that good sore this morning (which kept me in bed and not anywhere near the track).

What do folks want to do next week? Share exercises or complete routines.

First Convening of the USFHCCC: A Resounding Success?

Kudos to all for their individual and collective sticktoitiveness last night. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did. Danelle and I are never lacking ideas, but please make suggestions for next week's workout.

There was talk last night about doing some technical stuff like grappling outside of class. It might be cool to add this to the USFHCCC if everyone's open and eager. I'm by no means a BJJ wizard (I'm just a comparative notch above COMPLETE SUCK, actually), but I'm willing to show techniques and strategies. I think the field would be just fine for that, though not so great for full-on rolling!

Thanks everybody. More to follow...

Happy Patriot's Day!




Suggested workout for Thursday, April 24:

4 stations around the track, run to each station, repeat 4 times:

Bring your kettlebells so we have enough.

The USFHCCC is now convened.

Here are some catch phrases that have been suggested:

  • USFHCCC: Your Women and Children Mean Nothing to Us
  • [Pic of a giant, spiky kettle bell] Perch on This and Rotate
  • We Do Snatches by the Baker's Dozen. (Hold the Yeast.)
  • Combat Conditioning: Kinda like a Dominatrix, but not as romantic
  • Combat Conditioning: Kick ass, rinse, repeat
  • Combat Conditioning: We're all working on Meghan's Snatch
  • We'll rip your nipples off, dust them with cinnamon and eat them as a light appetizer before bashing your fucking skull in with a kettlebell, beeyach.
