Q: Worms and Darin co-leading mostly. Worms asked the group to consider being the Q and to consider exercises they would personally like to do today. Everyone had at least one suggested exercise and each man led his exercise as the Q. The various Q’s performances were exceptional. Found to be a good exercise to Q and lead the count as well. Note: Some of the exercises we did don’t follow the 1-2-3-1, 1-2-3-2… count method of many of the exercises so those exercises have to be better considered for how to count them.)
Gave the disclaimer. Welcomed the men. Moseyed to the brick circle to begin exercises. Did 10 each of most exercises. We did a big variety of exercises today.

Fastball, Josh Black?
Moseyed back to flag
