Ascent Pain Relay

Ascent Pain Relay

(…posted on behalf of High Tide on behalf of Slim Fast…)

15 Pax showed up on a beautiful September Carolina morning, to be greeted by an hour of oxygen depletion and muscle burn. YHC was first-time Q, so the pax were in for an unknown beatdown… but made it through excellently!

Mosey back to track for a BRR tribute – The APR – Ascent Pain Relay

Pax divided into 4 groups… Groups 2-4 start at each station, and Group 1 starts by running from Station 1 to Station 2.
When you get to each station, do the following exercise until the group behind you arrives at your station/”hand off”.
Station 1 – Merkins
Station 2 – LBC
Station 3 – Jump Squats

4 laps/4 sets at each station (1/2 mile) – Pax were adequately gassed after the relay!

YHC was honored to do his first Q with this group of men. We call it 1st F for Fitness, but there is a lot of 2nd F Fellowship built in, so I call it F 1.5!

There was a lot of heavy breathing and sweat-soaked shirts, so that means everyone was getting their money and time’s worth!

Great to have 2 FNG’s… Jake (Peaches) and Armin (Bourbon). Great work out there, and can’t wait to see you guys back at your next workout!

Strangebrew was missed… hope he is enjoying some cool mountain air this morning!

Passport, thanks for the prayer out!
