Rain Rain Go Away!!

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Merks, Cherry Pickers, LBCs, Squats, Over-head Claps, and …..a slow mosey.
THE THANG: Multiple Pain Stations all completed in cadence- 3 sets at each location ( varying reps) – Pax took turns leading the cadence. Preceded by a skill challenge:
Free throws were mixed in for the Pax – Basketball and a Hoop at the Yard were made available for a random testing of the Pax skills at the free throw line.  Penalties for missed shots were Bigboys, Squats and Merks.  6 Pax shot – with only Dojo sinking the shot.  Penalty sets completed w some mumblechatter.
Mosey to the turf football field where Barry took the Q stick and led the group on a 100 yd scoring drive with only mins left in the beat down.  
A bevy of bear crawls and Toy Soldiers challenged the pax in the gloom! Nice work closing out the day!
These pax started their Saturday plus 1!

MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Skeet shoot sign up, blood drive sign up, bourbon tasting, and read newsletter!
COT:Prayers for health, healing, and Life’s lessons.

Just What the Doctor Ordered

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Short mosey to side lot for COP
THE THANG:
COP:
SSH x 20, merkin x 10, windmill x 15, downward/upward dog x 2, squat x 20, large arm circles x 20, small arm circles x 20. burpees x 7

Line up in groups of 3:
40 yd sprints with short recovery (5 reps) (take a 10 ct)

Mosey to the artificial turf for Jack Web (1:4 ratio, 10 reps). This was planned for only 7 reps, but Bowser and Ironclade pushed us to do 10. Well done, young men!

Mosey to the school building for several sets of people’s chair, wheelbarrows, lungewalk, crabwalk, and bearcrawl.

10 monkey humpers prompted by Uhaul who was rucking past the pax.

‘Secret Service detal’: around Uhaul for a bit as the pax moseyed back to the large parking lot for Mary.

MARY:
Freddie Mercury x 10, Boat and Canoe x 5, LBC x 20, Superman x 2, Body destroyer to close it out.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
F3 Charity Shoot to benefit Ft. Mill Care Center on Nov 11
Bourbon tasting to benefit Ft. Mill Schools on Nov 18
Please sign up if you plan to attend so organizers get a head count. Thanks to Change Order and Cyclops for their leadership and commitment to 3rd F.

COT:
Following a really crappy day at work, and a sleepless night because of it, today’s Q could not have come at a better time.
It was already scheduled several weeks ago, but perhaps a higher power was at work here, knowing that today was the day I really needed it. I knew I would feel better after some physcial exercise, but the pax who provided me with a laugh or kind word really put me back in the right frame of mind. At the close of COT, I felt 100% better. Thank you, men!

We had a great group today and the mumble chatter and jokes made for a really fun workout. It was a pleasure to lead the group as always, and I’m truly thankful for the pax of F3. I gotta give a shoutout to our juniors, Ironclad and Bowser, who are regulars at our Saturday workouts and are developing a really good habit for life. Keep up the good work, guys!

Prayers for the F3 Pax affected by the deaths or illnesses of mothers and grandmothers (Bassomatic, Boogie Down, Uhaul).

Prayers for my friend Joe with cancer and the continued recovery of my co-worker Justin (Covid). Traveling mercies for the several HS band students on the road this wknd for competitions.

Homo Sapien does NOT melt in rain, drizzle or from a wet arse

Do you ever ride a high from a funny, proud or specific moment of the day?

It rained right before my bell Q started today. 2nd warm-up exercise was LBCs. Holy cow! that was the funniest moment I have seen in years, 7 grown men “chattering” about sitting in a puddle, you would think they were just dropped into a grave full of snakes. Still on a high. If you see me randomly laughing at a workout over the next week, you know the vision I am thinking about.

Any whoooo …

warm up, stuff like:
imperial walker, LBC, hillbilly walker, shoulder tap, LS squat, dying cockroach (there it goes again), morrocan NC, plank stretch

then we lifted stuff up and put it down:
curls, BO rows, chest press (standing and on 6), flutter with bell high (yup once again), goblet squat, around the world, tricep extentions, each arm dead lifts, good morning, side lunge, plank row

In between we did bootcampish stuff: burpees, flying squirrels, merkins, carolina DD, mahktar N’diayes, kneetar n’diayes (some did this) , bombjacks, jump squats, BB sits

wrapped it up with Assassin suicides with the bell
merkins, tricep extensions, curls
and goblet, chest press, around t world

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow
