All Rolling Stone Backblasts

October 2nd, 2017 By Man Down

10 Pax, including one “professional” FNG, turned up the heat during this October cold snap!

First off, thanks to Project over at Rolling Stone for this idea. Sometimes the art of being a good Q is simply recognizing a good plan you can steal for your own workout! The other art is being able to clearly deliver said plan…and YHC failed miserably in that department this morning.

As the clock turned 0530, several latecomers were still rolling in (Sterling and King Louie to name a couple. It would be another 5 minutes before Luxury would make his appearance). Pax started in plank position while Q gave the F3 disclaimer and explained the plan. 6 stations, 1 loop. 7 opportunities for GAINS! Carry your own KB to each station and do each exercise AMRAP while running Pax serve as Timer.

  1. Swings

  2. Bicep Curls

  3. Goblet Squats

  4. Tricep Extensions

  5. Calf Raises

  6. Upright Rows

In order to make it so no man was left running alone, Q had us start with just the odd-numbered stations, the idea being that at least 2 men would be at stations 1, 3, and 5 and another couple guys running the loop. This started off well enough…until I switched us over to even stations. That’s when the wheels started to fall off this train and the stirrings of mutiny began. YHC was eventually able to regain some semblance of control, however, and thinks we all got a good workout. If you didn’t, well, it’s your own damn fault! 😀

Thought for the day…Where you don’t think you need God’s grace is actually where you need it the most.
