YHC joined 23 other #HIM for a tough workout this morning at The Tavern. This AO is only a few weeks old, but is already showing tremendous growth in Rock Hill. Combined with ManU, it gives men in Rock Hill two amazing AOs to choose from each week. Having some foot issues and coming off a week of vacation in Mexico #nomoreguacamole , I wasn’t sure how I would do.

I arrived at 5:02 with a parking lot full of men, including 2 FNGs. Disclaimer was disclaimed at 0515, and the workout began (with one Pax arriving about 0518).

Warmup:
SSH x 20 IC
Imperial Walker x 20 IC
Hillbilly Walker x 20 IC
Windmill x 20 IC
Merkins x 10 IC
Mountain Climber x 20 IC
Merkins x 10 IC

Jog over to Harris Teeter parking lot.
Parking Lot shuffle (side shuffle on parking spots to the end). Plank when done.
Line Up on Parking Row, High Knees to next parking row, then Toy Soldier to next parking row.
Back with lunges, butt kickers

Now is when the pain started:
4 corners (in the huge parking lot) 10 reps at first corner, 15 at second, 15 at third, 10 at forth
Burpees
Squats
Calf Raises

After each, we had a 10 count. First one was a traditional 10 count, the 2nd one, I talked about what makes F3 different. More on that below.

Finished up with 4 corners Prison Cell Pushups 5-10-10-5

Prayer requests:
The young man Tinker Toy continues to work with.
Mr. Big Stuff’s wife and her family
The group from St. John’s as they go on a mission trip soon to Winnsboro
Several Pax who are dealing with family issues

Kudos to all men who posted this morning. Several things have come up recently to get me thinking about F3 and the impact it is having:
1. The M and I were talking about the difference between F3 and other “programs”. (yes, F3 is not a program, that’s the #1 difference). I brought up to her that it doesn’t stop at Fitness, it is about being better in everything we do. Going and getting the 6, which today’s group did a fantastic job of is a huge part of that. We are all the 6 at one point or another in an aspect of our lives. Being picked up by our brother is what we are called to do.
2. Vacation: I woke up each day during vacation (despite being in a different time zone) as the workouts began and woke back up during COT. I just thought that was interesting. I used that time to pray for the men of F3.
