Back Blast Kimble VQ at the Loco in The County

So, 3 months ago Fungi finally broke it down to me. “I am picking you up at 5:10. I am Q’ing. Be ready.” Some 40 posts later, I finally get on the schedule for my VQ. 18 other Pax showed up to witness a Derby themed workout. Weather was 62 and cloudy. Intermittent sprinkles were a welcomed relief. The goal for the day was to push each other with partner work, but to focus on form and function to get max effect of each exercise. AMRAP not about a number, but the cumulative effect of putting in the right work.
