Shawshank told me to go to bed earlier
All All MECA BackblastsMay 20th, 2016
5 powerful men gave up the fartsack this soggy morning to be in The Book of Heavy Metal. I noticed around 11:30PM last night no one signed up to Q for the 4th or 5th week in a row and took it upon myself to so sign up and throw together a midnight work out… It went something like this…..
I show up on time, which makes me late. Frostbite took over for the late Q and lead a quick mosey and a warm up circle that almost matches what I was going to… only being off by one of the exercises. Nice.
Then I took over and we did:
Lunge walk across parking lot and circle back up for:
clean and press x 10 each arm
calf raises x 20
dutch cucumber x 10 each arm
repeato x 2 then a brief mosey
On your own, do 100 curls, 100 shoulder presses, 100 goblet squats, 100 KB LBCs.
Carry the bells back to the starting area for:
KB Swing x 20
FIgure 8 x 10 each direction
obliques x 10 each side
Around this time Shawshank had to depart from us to be an honorable man for the police force.
Mary
Russian twist x 13
Low Flutter x 15
Freddy Mercury x 20
And finish up with some stretching.
Quick moleskin before work…
The last time I Q’d on a Friday was also a rainy day. I hate being in the rain. As warm natured as I am, somehow water always makes me feel 30 degrees colder. Good to see other still post in the drizzle though.
Strong morning, Frostbite. You jumped ahead of us in those 100 reps… I seem to recall doing that in the past and Jelly told me I should up my weight. If you upped yours, I’d probably have a fire under me to go ahead and up too (well….. still waiting for a sale)
Oscar looks like he’s getting some big power on those shoulders, looked ready to toss the kettlebell 20 feet in the air during them.

I also realized – have we told many FNGs about the site? I wasn’t sure if @Oscar had seen it, and I know @Shawshank and @Frostbite have posted before or at least commented on reading the backblasts… but I don’t think I’ve ever seen @Brutus comment so I didn’t know if he had it either.
Yeah i’m here @King Louie, but after the curls and shoulder presses my arms are not. Thanks for the workout and taking the Q!
Nice, just never fully sure since I don’t see people posting on here… and when I joined it took me 2-3 months to get access to the blog!
My hands are feeling pretty sore as I do all this typing at work. Need to do some more grip strength stuff…… That and one armed exercises are going to make upping 10 more lbs hard.
Great workout … even if it came from @King Louie’s nightmares … It was intense, and kept me awake as I had the privilege of honoring the memory of the Peace Officers who gave their all to serve and protect! At least the rain followed me all day long …
