It was 5:29am on a steamy Wednesday morning at Cowbell. Gilmore was ready to kickoff his maiden ‘Q’ voyage with a workout tailored to the music. There was only one problem, DJ Deadwood was no where to be found. With the pax & 2.0s ready to embark on this adventure, the show must go on so we shoved off. We started with a short, mosey lap around the parking lot, followed by a warmup/stretching session that consisted of counting out of the normal cadence and panic texts from the DJ himself (see actual text string attached). From there, we moved into the main workout consisting of partner stations:
– Tank – sled push and shoulder presses
– Medicine Balls – squat toss, side toss , shuffle toss and twists
– Kettlebells – swings, curls, rows, triceps and merkins
Within minutes, DJ Deadwood came flying in straight Baja style over speed humps and all. Once the beat dropped, we kicked it up a notch with Barbie Beatdowns. During the duration of each Britney Spears’ song, the pax had to do farmer carries followed by 5 burpees and then sprint back to tag out your partner who was doing big boys. After 45mins of confusion, pushing, tossing, carrying and sweating profusely, the chaos was over. Almost as fast as it began. This VQ was one for the books. Learned a lot and grateful for everyone in F3!
