Everyday Is Arm Day

I stumbled over an article this week that said to increase athleticism, we need to add static holds to the exercises we do and make a conscious effort to increase the time we can maintain that position. We hold planks, but do we hold anything else? We’ll start with 30 s and next time we’ll […]

Suicide Squad vs. The Mighty Ducks

40 degrees is what separates the men from the women and 12 buff dudes showed up today to melt some fat and recompose their bodies. I feel sorry for the ladies who didn’t make it, but there’s always yoga if F3 is too tough. Anywho, in preparation for the upcoming Field Day, a little more […]

Puppy Pilates

A partner touch free workout was planned for today even though the body could use a little warming up in this 50 degree weather. Not good for these Caribbean bones, but that’s what happens when the big 3-O is on the horizon, Caribbean decent or not. Decided to ditch the pick up the 6 mentality […]

Eternity For Men

It was a cool, crisp morning and the PAX flocked in like a Macy’s Black Friday sale. Harrisburg’s 13 best smelling men attacked the field at 0530. A little spritz of cologne never hurt nobody, and neither did this morning’s workout. Some say we worked out as hard as Ralph Lauren, some say the effort […]

Brown Rice, Chicken and Broccoli

A healthy meal name for a healthy Q with an even healthier turnout of Harrisburg’s leanest of proteins, I mean men. 11 handsome studs took to the park at 0700 hours and boasted their manly powers of athelticism for all to see. Bridging while the Hickory Ridge cross country team was running laps around the […]

Modern Men Workout

On a perfect Saturday morning, 11 Olympic athletes in training gathered at Harrisburg park to show the city their true talent and teamwork w/half-rep pull-ups from YHC and some touch-feely ab workouts. After a quick mosey from the “shelter” (archaic term pops), to the outdoor gym and first football field, so the games began. On […]
