The THANG:

Holy schnikes, we had 18 PAX for a Tommy Boy quote run. We ran Massey, to Harris, to Audrey, to Main in a loop with Derkins, Dips, Clave Raises, CDDs, V-Ups, and Big Boys. We had runners and ruckers.

COT:

On the heavier side, HIMs shared prayers that are really rocking their personal lives and I thank you for sharing. The COT is what makes us unique and allows those hard conversations to happen. This community has your back. Thanks for showing up today to get better. Thanks for letting me lead these men into Thursday.

Choose Hard

WARMUP: Run to bandshell at WEP
THE THANG: We did laps around WEP with an accumulator thrown in for fun. When returning to the bandshell after each lap pax did the following starting with the first exercise and then adding the 2nd to it, then the 3rd, then adding the 1st exercise on top of the original 3 following the 4th lap

Burpees x10
Should taps x20
Squat x30

We got in 5 laps before returning home. All the effort in continuous fashion kept the pax warm and kept the cranky mumblechatter flowing.

Crazy 21s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: it’s minnow pond. So, no

THE THANG:
Fast pace 3.75ish miles stopping to do Super 21s.

That’s 1 merkin, 1 squat, 2 merkins, 2 squats, etc. up to 21 merkins, 21 squats. 231 total reps: n(n-1)/2 is the formula if you want it.

Did this back in 2019 https://f3thefort.com/2019/12/19/super-21s-at-minnow-pond/ it sucked then too.

MARY: a little with the 45 seconds remaining when we returned to COT

NMM: listen, every man that posted today is already trying. Sometimes it’s not enough just to try. We have to find ways to be better. Maybe that’s working with more intensity, maybe that’s eating better, maybe that’s resting smarter, maybe that’s speaking kindly to your children… but whatever it is, if you’re already trying and you need better, find a way.

It’s 2025, MEN of The Fort it is time to thrive

Stick a Fork in 2024

Leave a comment

No FNGs so the disclaimer was light. It was concluded that we could sue <@U01CGBKBQ64> if things went sideways, but we decided against it since he was our gratuitous host this morning.

Quick warmup and we were off. Is was discussed that the toilet water in Australia flushes backwards, so we decided treat The Australian Mountain Climber the same.

Moseyed across 160 for 4 corners of pain. We did 24 reps of the 4 exercises to pay homage to 2024. Then we obviously did 6 laps because 2 + 4 =6. It’s science.

Back to COT for announcements/prayers.

Jwow
