As a gear workout that has really stressed getting back to the gear, this is especially important as Rock Hill has recently launched a more traditional running/boot camp workout at Boom Town Central and numerous workouts at The Fort, Alcatraz, Indian Land, etc.

I’m looking to add to our arsenal.  We currently have tractor tires, 30 lb cinder blocks, heavy buckets, and a heavy chain.  Specifically I would like to add some sledgehammers.  I intend to purchase a few, but would like to see if I can get some from my fellow HIMs.

We are also open to any and everything that you have in mind such as battling ropes, 45 lb cinder blocks, chains(we have 1 already), etc.

And as always, come on out and enjoy the heck out of our gear. You can contact me or anyone in a leadership role in Rock Hill and we will make arrangements.

Yours in gloom,

Dawg Pound

Regroup at the field by Dinkins

56 Low Slow Squats

Got a “Random” visit from the Old Town crew (workout numbers increased 5x…. we need some of those guys to post at independence!)

38 Pax deep attempted to do 56 Seal Team Sit-ups (it was a much better idea on paper…)

Apache led us through an invigorating 56 rep 4-count side-straddle-hop. We looked more like a Richard Simmons video!

They mosey’d on their merry way and we mosey’d to the fire escape at Tillman Hall. Up and down the stairs, 25 LBC’s, back up the stairs and 31 LBCs, back up the stairs one more time. Then we did a few back exercises to complement all of the ab work.

Mosey back to the field at Dinkins for a 4×1 30 count Jack Webb session and 5 minutes of Mary.

Prayers and Praises:

Chucky’s mom for a successful closing on her house.

Always a pleasure leading my brothers.  See you in the Gloom!

Fusion Out

Some people need a date way out there to train for. They need a shirt. Pre-runs, pre-rucks and all sorts of nonsense. And then sometimes, you find a CSAUP lands right in your lap. This would be that time. There’s no shirt and there’s no patch. It’ll happen and no one will probably ever know you did something cool. But that’s the beauty of it. The guys (and gal(s) this time) that you did it with? They’ll know! I know, you’re interested. You’re like, Zima suggests a lot of stupid things. Some I want to punch him in the face for (#Longshanks) but some have been the best 1st and 2nd F times in my short F3 life. Let me tell you…this will be 50% fun and 50% sucky. You should join us. I’ve got HC’s from some high quality PAX. But let me stop here and let you know what’s happening.

What you need?
-30# ruck or 20# if you’re WWL/Repeat (<150#) #petite
-Positive Attitude

When: This Tuesday Night, 1800
Where: Trailhead Park (Tega Cay)
What: Start rucking until you hit 20 miles

Highlights: Baxter Starbucks, Hobos, Waffle House, QT, Good MumbleChatter

We'll be moving at approx. 18 min/mile pace for 6 hours. We'll have about 1.5-2.0 hours of rest at the above mentioned establishments. End time is between 1-2 AM.

You read this and your first instinct is to say "No"! How many times did you say no to F3 before you posted? It's all good. We might do it sometime next year. Or we might not. I'm just saying, some of us are already living the #goodlife. How long til you get a taste? Sorry, I've said too much. I shouldn't have to sell it. Hope to see you at Trailhead in 48 hours.

Aye!
Zima

PS: If the The Fort Custom Goruck is in your future, you should participate!
