The BackBlast:
I’m a big fan of History. I like historic things I like old things I like ancient things. I like to understand those things. But I got to tell you history has been hard for me to understand sometimes. Like in the third grade when the teacher was telling us about Jim Crow laws and I thought she said Jim Croce laws. It was hard for me to understand how a guy could write a great hit like Bad Bad Leroy Brown and then want to do deprive other people the right to vote. I think I was 16 before I finally figured it out. So anyways….at today’s Attilla workout I found out we made history. And not the history we wanted to make necessarily. We’ll come back to that in a moment.
But first here’s what we did for the beat down. We started off with the standard because standards are historical and anybody that studies standards like the declaration independence knows that that’s a standard. Most people don’t realize the Declaration of Independence was basically a copy and paste job of a standard form. But I mean using real paste. So we got done with the standard and we did a very simple workout.
The land of a thousand dances ….10 exercises done ten times for 10 rounds. You got four minutes to get each round in and if and if you do all of the exercises and all of the reps in all the rounds you did a thousand reps. So you can see historically why we referenced the great song (btw the cover by J. Geils is my fave).
About a quarter way thru the workout senor Chips informs me that this is the most boring workout in the history of History. I’m not even sure what that means. And then wahoo asks me if blow me is two words or hyphenated. Then Skoal Bandit flipped me off. And then with about 60 seconds left in the workout and not — 615 by the way–all the pax walked back for c o t leaving me stranded finishing on my own. Truly the greatest mutiny in the history of F3.
But listen we had a great workout we had some cool Tunes we got done darn close to on time and everybody complained.
I’ve had a handful of texts that were basically flipping me the bird. And then charcoal drove by my house and actually flipped me the bird. You would think I would quit never want to Q again.
But that’s not my history
