BP- 10/23 The Foundry – Worm Ghost Q

I was honored when Alexa reached out to Ghost Q at the Foundry this week. Obviously, I tend to enjoy the HEAVY style workouts. And seeing what The County and The Mutt have done to expand that style WO is so impressive. I brought the Worm Wagon loaded with Heavy Toys for all to share.Continue reading "BP- 10/23 The Foundry – Worm Ghost Q"

10/25/2019 Pre-Blast Wisteria @ Pleasantville

Come out to the gloom of Wisteria. Where things are rarely what they seem. A Ghost Q will be there, but not the kind that you think. Hiding in the shadows, lurking, devising something to make you scream. But don't let this Ghost Q catch you, as he will take your blood for a drink.Continue reading "10/25/2019 Pre-Blast Wisteria @ Pleasantville"

10/23 Backblast TheBlender #GhostKilo

When Backdraft asked me to Q theBlender during GhostQ week, I was all over it.  These heavy Qs are my favorite, because they give you the opportunity to get creative in how you split the pax, how long the intervals are, and which muscle groups you’d like to focus on.  I was excited to testContinue reading "10/23 Backblast TheBlender #GhostKilo"

10.21.19 Ghost Q-Back Blast for The Incubator @ Posh

You likely don't know this but your Bird used to do professional theatre in Cincinnati. I love dressing up, getting into character and stepping into another world. Oh, and I probably own more wigs than what is acceptable for a man in his early 40's. I am also a big fan of the Halloween season.Continue reading "10.21.19 Ghost Q-Back Blast for The Incubator @ Posh"

B.B. TheCliffs@TheGarden 10/22 – Casper (Methane) the Friendly GHOST

F3 Ghost Q tip: If you don't post regularly over the last couple months and then show up at a WO, odds are the PAX know you are the ghost Q. Yes, it's true, I've been a ghost PAX over the last couple months but was grateful that Uncle Rico gave me the call. IContinue reading "B.B.

BB – Ghostmode – The Silo – North Posh – 10-21-19

So Catfish has been twisting my arm to Q at the Silo for several months now, to the point of where my arm had suffered at least a third degree Native American burn, and was just about broken.  With ghost week here, it seemed like the time to capitulate and trek my way outside theContinue reading "BB – Ghostmode – The Silo – North Posh – 10-21-19"
