Mission Statement

5 Core Principles

5 Point Legal Disclaimer!  1)  YHC is not a professional, 2) Each Pax was there because they chose to be there, 3) the exercises that YHC calls are merely suggestions.  The Pax are free to modify as necessary.  Make them easier, make them more difficult…up to you, 4) in the unlikely event you become injured, stop and the pax will assist you (where is the nearest medical facility??), and 5) by continuing from this point forward, each Pax hereby assumes the risk of injury.  #yesIamaLawyer

NMM

Phew!  Did I mention that it was humid??!!

There was some confusion on Mutton Crunches and Penguin Crunches.  Regional differences.

Thanks to the Pax for coming out to my first Q in the region.  It was about a year ago that I first posted here, and the idea formed that we could move to this area.  Fast forward, and here we are.  I am very grateful for this group of men and how welcoming you all have been.  Looking forward to making great memories and accelerating together.

Thanks to Chillipepper, Spartan, and Mrs. Doubtfire for the strong partner work during Grinder time.

I think Speed Bump was the only Pax I had not met before.  Nice to meet you.

Lancelot was the 6 – thanks for sharing your story
