MILGA WRAP at Lazarus

Leave a comment

Last WO of the year at Lazarus.

Poppins had EH’d an F&G, so a proper disclosure was given with an introduction to FOOPC. We did a short warm‑up in the parking lot while getting to know F&G, then headed to the circuit.

Mapped a quarter‑mile loop using Google Maps’ measure feature, with four stations and four different exercises at each station, each with a proper rep count, just enough where form matters and not enough if cheating yourself. My rough math made me think that would total two miles, but it’s actually just one mile, another reminder, not a professional.

Kept the group together in lieu of letting spring chickens run for fellowship and FNG welcoming. Goose was hungry for EC, had a taste and back to COT for MARY.

Proper interrogation of FNG led to name Elmer Fudd.

Prayers for better parenting, aging family members, and discernment in season of waiting.

Dark Helmet F3 Nation Nant’an on Q

Deez DOAH Notes:
I don’t get serious very often—pretty much ever—but this convergence has been heavy on my heart as Nant’an of F3 Nation. You usually just see me as the jackwagon you work out with, but this one’s different.

It would mean a lot if you showed up. Bring a guy—FNG or Kotter. We’re going to talk honestly about the state of manliness in our world and what we need to do to accelerate our impact.

Coffeeteria afterward provided by Poppins

A note from Santa traveling in his Time Machine:

This Beatdown was brought to you by everyone’s favorite Christmas Song, the 12 Days of Christmas. We went through each exercise as we attempted to sing the song. After each verse we ran approximately 30 yards and back.

On the 1st Day of Christmas, F3 gave to me:
1 burpee a-la-Dunphy

On the 2nd day of Christmas, F3 gave to me:
2 jump squats & 1 burpee a-la-Dunphy

On the 3rd day of Christmas, F3 gave to me: 3 WWIIs, 2 jump squats & 1 burpee a-la-Dunphy
We continued with the 4th day and so on with the following exercises.

4 dry docks
5 LBCs
6 geezers-a-lunging
7 mountains-a-climbing
8 maids-a-merkins
9 americans-a-twisting
10 lords-a-leaping
