NMM
We never know what someone is going through. Could be divorce, a health scare, loss of a loved one, inability to pay rent, loss of a job, or mental, physical, or emotional stress. Sometimes life hits you hard and you just need someone to listen and support. That’s what F3 is all about. Sure, we could all get a good workout at Burn Bootcamp (shoutout to the coach across the parking lot yelling “encouragement” to her class). We might even have a bit of fellowship with our coworkers. But when life gets hard, most people lack a support system to help them get through it. F3 has been that support system for thousands of men worldwide. But that support system can only help if you share your burdens. Get to know the men around you in COT. Build those relationships that carry you in the hard times and celebrate with you in the good times. You never know when life will get hard, but it sure helps to have friends to get you through.

Leave No Stone Unturned

We had six at the Forge this morning. Started with a mosey around the parking lot before doing the typical warmups.
Next a modified DORA, same counts with different exercises added bonus with a large rock. Curls, overhead press, and flutters. Once completed, we ran to the back of the tire store for a set of step ups, erkins, and dips. We continued around the back of HT. Completed a sidewalk shuffle and walk sit.
Back to the front of the building where we began the workout. We finished with a man maker ladder. Partner 1 performed the man makers while Partner 2 ran. Flip flop
Back to COT.

1) YOU WILL HAVE TO MAKE HARD DECISIONS THAT NEGATIVELY IMPACT
PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT.

2) YOU WILL BE DISLIKED DESPITE YOUR BEST ATTEMPTS TO DO THE BEST FOR THE MOST.
3) YOU WILL BE MISUNDERSTOOD, AND YOU WON'T ALWAYS HAVE THE CHANCE TO DEFEND YOURSELF.
