When you Q Block Party, Cubbie likes you to share your “why” because a man who has a “why” to live can bear almost any “how.”

My why is my desire to be reliable for those I love. I want to be able to carry the heavy things and the heavy burdens of my family and friends. F3 strengthens me physically, emotionally, and spiritually – making me resilient in the face of adversity.

Last month at Disney, my son and I were rushing to catch a bus from Hollywood Studios to Magic Kingdom. We had plans to meet my wife and daughter and this bus was the only way to get there on time. I could see it in the distance, loaded and ready to leave. I knew my 5-year-old’s legs couldn’t get there in time after a full day of walking, so I picked him up and ran to catch the bus (notching a couple kills on the way). Without F3, I’m not certain I would have made that move. This physical endurance is built by the Daily Red Pill.

To me, the COT is the best part of the workout. What we share is so valuable. We have the antidote to male loneliness in the form of genuine care and concern with a heavy dose of sophomoric humor and dynamic shame goading. It’s the perfect recipe for a man to feel included. Sharing our struggles lessens their effect and celebrating our wins doubles their impact. This is the mental and spiritual catalyst for impact and improvement.

So, what’s my “why?” You are. You make me a better man. You make me a better husband, father, friend, and leader. And that’s why I’ll keep coming for another 11+ years.

Aye!

swinging in the park

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Imperial Walking, Low Slow Squat
THE THANG: Mosey to the amphitheater. Pax will start with 3 burpees. Then we performed the pendulum. PAX swing from the bathrooms to the first set of swings on the opposite side of the amphitheater. At the bathrooms there were 12 BBSU, at the swing 12 4-count flutters. Every round decrease by one on both sides. Always 3 burpees in the middle.

OnlyFans, Cubbie, and YHC made it to the 3 count with Skipper and Soup making 4 and Slash picking his way back to CoT earlier than the rest of us.

Mosey back with two extra stops for burpees. That means everyone should have had about 60 burpees in their morning diet.
MARY: enough time for 7-8 american hammerz
ANNOUNCEMENTS: stuff is happening
COT: Talked about trust

If not now, then when?

It was a crisp 25 degrees as YHC walked up to the shovel flag just after 0500hrs. Some of The Fort’s finest, but not all, began to arrive in varying conditions.
DISCLAIMER: The mumblechatter started early, YHC felt honored to have the usual suspects in attendance, so a strong disclaimer was shouted out.
WARMUP:
Mosey to the pharmacy – Band Camp, in typical Weasel Shaker fashion, tried to push the pace since he was already warm from running to AO. CoP in pharmacy parking lot. Those suspects ramped up the heckling here, an endearing jester, but we pushed on:
– 25 SSH IC
– 10 LSS IC
– 10 Imperial Walkers IC
– 10 Hillbilly Walkers IC
– 10 MNCs IC
– Yoga

THE THANG:
Moseyed down to the parking lot behind Italian Job’s rehearsal dinner. He reminisced for the PAX as we began The Thang.
– Lunges down 3 travel lanes
– Bear crawls back down 3 travel lanes
– Burpee broad jumps down 3 travel lanes
– Toy Soldiers down 3 travel lanes.

Moseyed to Pike parking lot at top of Massey. Shoulder taps for the 6. Partner up for DORA. One PAX runs to bottom of Massey and back while other does the following exercises.
– 100 Merkins
– 200 Squats
– 300 LBCs

Finished with enough time to hit the Pike wall for 3 rounds of burpee waterfall while we did wall sits.

MARY: Flutters

ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2D Bar, State of the Union tonight, Blood Drive!

COT: Stays in COT
