15 Pax chose to make a downpainment on the day and learn more about Whetstone this morning at Colosseum. Rebound is leading the charge to educate the Pax on Whetstone and Shieldlock and incorporating Qs to discuss these topics. YHC was excited for the opportunity to Q and added a Blade in Maximus for additional pain and discussion.

Mosey to parking lot
COP:
IWs x 10
SSH x 30
Strawberry pickers x 10

Shield Lock Talk

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Introduction and disclaimer. Began a mosey down the road that included toy soldiers, butt kickers and both sides of Karaoke. Stopped at the far parking lot for a warm-up. Included MNC, Wind Mills, Produce Pickers. plank with discussion, up/down dog, Mtn Climbers and ended with Merkins.
THE THANG: Part 1 of 3. We did the Motivator. After we completed it, transitioned to Kaiser. He lead us to the track to do some bench work. Part 2 of 3 included Step ups, Incline Merkins, Dips, then an Indian Run around the track. Repeated bench work and then abs before handing it off to Body Wash. He took us on a mosey back to COT. Part 3 of 3 was all Broga and Ab work. At each part we talked about the reason we joined our SL. We were missing OTG, Divac and Slapshot. All had prior obligations or Q’s.

Whetstone WOD

Leave a comment

Disclaimer: By participating in an F3 workout, you assume the risks inherent in doing so. I am not a professional. F3 makes no representations of any kind regarding your safety. Asked to share about whetstone and my experiences, here we go…

1. DORA: Rebel
– challenged me in areas I struggle: alcohol, devoting time to my M, getting my family to Church consistently
– Asks for progress updates every time we meet
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Reporting Progress
+ 200 merkins
+ 200 big boys
+ 200 squats
+ 200 LBC’s
– Bear crawl/power-skips

2. Partner run: Pusher AKA Big Question Eddie
– pushes me to think bigger; act better
– Always comes back when I ghost, some may be shocked to learn that F3 didn’t immediately stick with me!!
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Big Questions
+ Run to 160 and back, ask big questions of each other: who’s your whetstone? Who could be your stone/blade? What do you need in a whetstone relationship?

3. Partner transport: Long Duck
– full of stories and antidotes to frame your mind for the positive, I.e. attitude card
– Carried me in some of my struggles with alcohol and anger
– Pours himself into others to help them and himself
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Carrying your man
+ partner carry, 2 laps
+ wheelbarrow, 1 lap
– repeat

4. Closing: Key takeaways
– find what you need in a stone, plus seek to share wisdom with a blade (it makes you a better man)
– Be open with them, get vulnerable
– You can have more than one stone, learn lessons from all relationships
– Find someone that sets the example for how to be a better man

Happy Bus Driver Day

Leave a comment

We had nine at the Colosseum for a Happy Bus Driver Day. We started with a mosey to the back parking lot. Warm-ups (SSHs, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, Plank Stretches). Next, we headed to the light posts, partnered up. Partner 1 run to the second light pole and returned to Partner 2, Partner 2 jogged forward to meet Partner 1. We repeated this pattern until we reached the last light pole then returned to the school doing the same running pattern.
Next, we ventured over to the wall. Modified Dora – 100 Muscle Ups, 200 Hand Release Merkins, and 300 LBCs. Partner exercises, one ran while the other performed the exercises, flip flop.
We had enough time to run back to COT. Welcome Lighthouse.
