Tengo at The Ballroom

Leave a comment

It was a thick humid morning in The Fort, but eleven HIM decided to get out of the fart sack and take their daily dose of the red pill and accelerate. FNG Red Card posted so the disclaimer was thorough and so was the pain!
Warmup:
20 Side Strattle Hops
10 Windmills
10 Tappy Taps
10 Merkins
Down/Up Dogs 🐕
LBCs

Mosey/Toy Soliders/Kareoke over to the bridge of pain for a Tengo with Dora.
Partner 1: Run across the bridge to the locker room and back.
Partner 2: 100 Merkins, 200 Squats, 300 Flutters

Next lunge over to the bleachers for some bleacher work. I took a deep dive into the archives of the exicon for this next exercise called the Aiken Legs. Was it named after Clay Aiken or Aiken SC? That is the deep mystery of the exicon (from the exicons lips to God’s year).

Aiken Legs:
20 Squats
20 Step Ups
20 Clave Raises

Aiken Chest:
20 Merkins
20 Derkins
20 Incline Merkins

Moseyed back to COT for prayer ans praises.

BOMBS Away!

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walkers

The month of May is mental health month. Most Americans struggle with some form of mental health. One of the biggest things I’ve learned during my short time at F3 is that this community cares about the mental health of the PAX and their families. I believe that’s why 🛡 🔒 are a thing as well. To help foster that bond between men.

Loss of life due to suicide is the #2 leading cause of death in ages 10-34.

This workout was curated with the idea that we are not alone and through teamwork, we can get it done.

THE THANG:
BOMBS workout
50 Burpees
100 Overhead claps
150 Merkins
200 Big Boy SitUps
250 Squats

Mode of transportation was suicide runs.

Partner up. Pax 1 does exercise while Pax 2 does suicide run. Then swap.
If finished before the other groups, help them wrap up their sets.

Wrapped up with 10 merkins on the minute for 7 minutes followed by 15 squats on the minute for 7 minutes.

The Murph with PSA

Leave a comment

Today we learned a lot. Today was our prep for next week’s Memorial Day Murph.

Started with a strategy discussion to complete it in a respectable time using a timer to do 5/10/15 Pull-ups/Merkins/Squats every minute with a 15 second break between rounds. (25 minutes for those who don’t like math). Easy to start, but a killer at the end.

Per usual Harry Carey was the fastest but Grout was right on his heals.

Ruby did all of em just 8 months removed from full shoulder replacement.

Clickbait and Shield were machines.

YHC DNF but learned a tough lesson. All the bathrooms at NaFo are locked. Be aware for future posts at NaFo.

Also, it’s getting hot and humid so make sure to stay hydrated. We don’t need anyone falling out on us.

Abram…aka Abraham settling in bethel was halfway from AI (dump) and God’s eventual permanent place for him
We are halfway from our past and our permanent and eternal destination….are you looking forward?? Are you ready??
Get your mind and spirit right!

8 From there he moved to the hill country on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. And there he built an altar to the Lord and called upon the name of the Lord.

Snarky Title

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Old man warmup of windmills and strawberry pickers, or produce pickers, or cherry pickers, or whatever… some SSH, a couple of Merkins… you get the idea

THE THANG:
We tested our fitness this morning.
2 min max push-ups
2 min max butterfly sit-ups
1 lap around the park in sub-5 minutes

Then we moved to the modified Spartan 300
Run 100 yards
5 burpees
Run back 100 yards
That’s one round. We did 5 rounds.

Finally, we farmer carried heavy things in a relay race style. It was a little dumb. Peabody cheated, which I didn’t mind since he was on my team.
The things were: Cindy, a 45lb ruck plate, a 60lb sandbag, and an 80lb sandbag.

MARY:
She wasn’t there.
