Suspicious F3 Behaviour Around Lowes!

  • WARMUP: Abe Vigoda, Downward Dog, Honeymooner, Pigeon Stretch, SSH.
  • THE THANG: Mosey to 4 corners around Lowe's. Pain Station equipped with F3 cards. Each concentrating on 4 areas: Arms, Cardio, Core, Legs. The Cardio & Legs stacks were noticeably missing along with their mini flashlights. Lowes confiscated the items assuming the PAX was up to no good and will try to rob them F3 style! The Pax improvised with 2 remaining decks.

COT: The theme today was built around Struggle because the Summer Steam has kicked into high gear and the core of the F3 engine for me is Shared Suffering. These pax suffered through a tough workout with grit and encouragement throughout. The Struggle in the Gloom can be hard, but the hardest struggles come once we leave the parking lot after COT. The suffering life deals is real and difficult. And the personal struggles that exist inside the heart and mind can be the toughest of all.

Don't believe the lies in your head that other men aren't struggling. We all struggle, from the sharpest and fittest Nantan to the gimpy pax trying to get off IR. DON'T STRUGGLE ALONE! The reason we post is to build the grit and the brotherhood that will get us through every struggle!

Appreciate the contributions of all throughout the workout and in COT!

Thanks for the invite JWOW! You were missed.

1 Jarvis + 1 Bobber = Acceleration

It was a beautiful morning at The Ballroom and the PAX were chomping at the bit to accelerateOr was that Jarvis chomping on a T-Bone?🥩

Quick warmup with the Polish Mating Dance and we were off.

Over to the benches for some dips, step ups and irkins.

Over to the hill for some Chutes and Ladders. 🪜 There were two cones at each station and the PAX had to choose one of them. If they chose a C we had to Chute (run) up to the top of the hill. If it was an L we would run up to the next rung on the ladder. Each rung had two cones and some exercises. Let’s just say there was a lot of Chuting this morning.

Back to COT for prayers and praises.

JWow

1 Jarvis + 1 Bobber = Acceleration
