I don’t Q often (this is something I should work on), but when I do Q a workout, it will be unique and out of the ordinary. Today was no exception. I wasn’t sure how this would be received by the PAX, but I didn’t care. If the PAX want to complain about the workout, that is music to my ears. If they want to have an easy workout, they can Q their own.

Last night I pre-blasted my own workout. I like to self pre-blast since I know what I have planned. I can market my workout to make people curious/interested vs. the standard pre-blast that a site Q may send out. In the pre-blast, I mentioned that we would be playing a game and that you had to show up to know what was in store. 2 PAX told me that they were curious what this meant and posted out of curiosity. They might not have posted or went elsewhere. There were some “non-regulars” that came out to Tortoises

15 guys joined me on this wonderful Wednesday

Regardless if there is an FNG or not, I start my workouts by talking about DICCS, then rolled into the pledge of allegiance

Disclaimer – I am not a professional / you are out here on your own / you can’t sue me, F3, the church / etc.

I.C.E. (In Case of Emergency) – make sure you have an emergency contact (in Slack profile, Road ID, etc) – I don’t know most of the guys first names, much less their spouse’s name or how to get a hold of them if there was an emergency

CPR – raise your hand if you’re certified. This is a skill that everybody should know and hopefully never use.

Cellphone – If you have your phone on you, raise your hand. I was using mine for timing / music. This is more important for workouts that travel from the parking lot. I have been in a workout where we left the parking lot and one of the PAX got hit by a car and broke his leg. With a cellphone on hand, we didn’t have to run back the parking lot. We called the paramedics from the scene. Time is important in an emergency situation

Safety – Modify as needed / push yourself but don’t hurt yourself / use good form / if you’re leaving the parking lot (N/A for this workout), wear reflective clothing, pay attention to traffic, pick up the 6, watch out for each other

I didn’t stop to focus on abs specifically, since there were ab exercises throughout the workout

  • Bolton and Chewie wanted to challenge the PAX, by intentionally throwing their darts in the grass. These burpee penalties got mixed reviews from the PAX.
  • Hobbit was so looking forward to the workout, he confessed after the beatdown (and coffeeteria) that his shirt was on inside out.
  • Good work to all the PAX today. The mublechatter was on point. Everybody left sweaty and got their money’s worth. It was a pleasure to lead you this morning
  • Thanks to Kermit for taking us out today
