5 Chillin' at The Tomahawk
I love watching the video from this workout. Everybody's beat. Uhaul can't remember the date, Drone forgot how name-o-rama works, and a lot of sweat dripping. I started us off with a mosey around the big block. Once we…

For a moderate, this was kinda rough
I'm not sure when I have Q'd that I can recall being wiped out. Today was pretty rough. Good but rough. I think it was just rough enough for Shady and Pusher to keep them interested. We left ChickFilA and went toward…

Interval Flows and Fake Moon Landings
It was a balmy 52 and rainy when I woke up, and the temperatures were dropping. I grabbed my rain jacket and hit the road. Dark, rainy driving is somewhat peaceful in a way. Just focus on the road and you should be…

Apologies for no video name-o-rama, my phone battery died as soon as it started recording. Zapped by the cold. 11 PAX showed up on a chilly Monday morning to get better while slinging some iron together. I did my best…

The Hive 2017.45
So I wasn't the real Q of this one but I'll write it up. Truthfully, I've been slacking on my worshipplanning.com duties. So we improvised with a few different PAX providing thoughful inspiration for activities to…

Simple is good
It has been atleast 12 months since I have even posted at The Armory, let alone Q'd. Probably longer. But when Assassin asked you to do something, you do it. Plus it was new and fresh for me which is good for all of us…

Lead, follow or move that Kettle Bell out of the way

The Colloseum 2017.19
I like Qing at the Colloseum because it makes it painfully apparent that the more people you have, the more clear you have to be in your direction. The more hesitation and miscommunication, the time loss seems…
