A few weeks ago, Transporter asked me to head southeast of the border and Q a gear workout called Chisled. I have familiarity with most of the Waxhaw AOs as I was one of the Journeyman Challenge(we should do this again sometime) winners during the summer of 2018 but it seems 5 Stones is newer to the AO game.
Through some texts with Rudy this week, I learned that the Asylum pax keep all their gear at the AO which was a new concept to someone who has always lugged kettlebells to every gear workout I go to. I arrived a little after 5 and had Rudy show me everything and setup. Definitely a lot of good stuff to work with; kettlebells, sandbags, dumbells, bricks, cinder blocks, tires, and weight plates. Pax rolled in and we had 13 ready to go at 530, one rolled in about 5 minutes later during the warmup.
