MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: marriages, addictions, and family changes that cause dynamics in the home.
COT: early into the workout the site Q asked to share my “why I do F3” it is simple because of you all. I was definitely a sad clown about 12 years ago when 2 guys were coaching my sons soccer team. I would drop him off and then go for a run. They asked if I ever heard about this workout group called F3. I said I’ll think about it. 1 day later when going to get a haircut I ran into another guy he said let me tell you about this group I’ve been working out with called F3. As a new believer ( I had been agnaustic until this time) I knew God was putting men into my life to change my perspective on life and him. Because of the men I have met and that have given me so much I want to give back to each of you and to men that have not been introduced to what we have. I know I am not the best at getting guys to come out but I love getting to walk in life with all of you that are coming out and that bring others to the gloom. Love you all.

Welcome back to the 90s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH while we gathered everyone to get the party started. Then took off for a short mosey over to the flags. Windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squats, merkins. Then ran to the back of the school.
THE THANG: we setup the DJ station for some 90s jams. Stating point was by the gym where the picnic tables were at and we would do 1 exercise, run to the end of the parking lot where the orange cones are normally at, then back to the music for the following exercise, reading left to right and then progressing down. But 1 exercise, then run every time. I think 2.5 miles were got or close to, and the kings were somewhere down to the jump squats.

10 burpees (30 seconds Al Gore)
15 diamonds (30 monkey humpers)
20 hand release (50 calf raises)
25 wide arm (50 flutters)
30 merkins (40 step ups total)
35 rangers (25 incline merkins)
40 carolina dry docs (30 hammers)
45 plank jacks (30 sec wall sit)

D-Day – The Greatest Generation

Leave a comment

D-Day (June 6, 1944)

D-Day:
D-Day was the Allied plan to launch a massive invasion of Nazi-occupied France, opening a second front in Europe to relieve pressure on the Soviet Union in the east and hasten the defeat of Nazi Germany. The Allies aimed to break out of Normandy, liberate France, and advance toward Germany, ultimately ending the war in Europe.
Phases:
1. Airborne Assault: Shortly after midnight, thousands of paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines to disrupt German defenses.
2. Bombardment: Pre-dawn air and naval attacks targeted German coastal fortifications.
3. Amphibious Landings: From 6:30 AM, Allied troops landed on five beaches (Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, Sword). Fierce fighting occurred, especially at Omaha Beach.
4. Beachhead Establishment: By the end of the day, the Allies had secured footholds on all beaches, though not all objectives were met.

Casualties:
– Allied: About 4,414 killed on D-Day (over 10,000 casualties including wounded/missing).
– German: Estimated 4,000–9,000 killed or wounded.
– Civilians: Around 3,000 killed.

Significance:
The Normandy invasion was a turning point in World War II, marking the start of the liberation of Western Europe and placing immense pressure on German forces. Elaborate deception plans misled the Germans about the invasion’s location, and extensive planning ensured the Allies achieved surprise and established a crucial foothold in France.

WARMUP:
– Mosey around the parking lot to the cinder block storage
– Mosey with a cinderblock to the bleachers
– SSH X20
– Windmill X10

THE THANG:
Phase 1 “Overlord”
• 1944m Run = ~1.2 miles = scale up to 5 laps on the track
Phase 2 “Airborne Drop”
• 60 Coupon BO Rows
• Run ¼ mile
