It’s been since late last year since I have Q’d because of optical issues. Needless to say, I Q-failed the disclaimer. And if any workout needed a “modify as needed”… it would have been this one. But, there were no FNGs and these were all seasoned Pax. They knew the drill.

Sadly, due to shoulder issues, Balljento couldn’t do a lot of the exercises, but he did what he could… just like I kept cutting the running portion short in order to get back to call out the next set of exercises (I’m the Q and can do whatever I want… modify as needed).
