It’s Wet. YES. Now, Do The Work

Leave a comment

Whenever there's an FNG, I feel the responsibility to turn it up a notch and to ensure I adhere to the principles, cadence calling, and traits of what I love about F3. While it's not up to me to determine the intensity of this morning's workout as I'll let the PAX chime in, what I can control is the adherence to the principles, cadence calling and characteristics of what I love about F3…so long as I don't stray from the 5 Core Principles or the Credo.
Naturally, we reviewed those this morning prior to launching as we had an FNG in the gloom with us, welcome Small Things.

WARMUP: Mosey to the parking lot of FMRX and discover a nicely placed deck of cards. Oh look, what shall we do with these? The intent was to complete ~1/2 the deck utilizing some warm-up exercises and regular exercises and let this serve as our slightly-higher-than-normal-intensity warm-up.
Hearts: Merkins
Clubs: Flutters (count the rt side only)
Spades: Squats
Diamonds: Butt Kickers (count the rt side only)

THE THANG:
Mosey to the big lot on the right at the top of the Massey hill for a large evolution of 4 Corners with a center.
Start in the center of the lot and run to the corner, perform the exercise, run back to the center for 5 burpees, then out to the next corner and back to the center and so on. Complete 2 full rounds.
Corner 1: 15 Hand-Release Merkins
Corner 2: 15 Jump Squats
Corner 3: 15 Carolina Dry Docks
Corner 4: 15 American Hammers

Once everyone completed round 2, we then completed 1 additional round as a group but cut the reps in half.

Mosey to the steps at the Fort Mill Church of the Nazarene. The original plan had us running up and down the set of stairs but due to the rain, we lunge walked up the stairs, walked down and did that 3 times then went to the Church parking lot.
Here I looked at the wienke and realized I had about 7mins of material for the remaining 15mins of time in the hour. A reminder for all, plan a longer workout in case you finish an evolution faster than anticipated. So, what did we do? I preceded to make a few enemies and released the angry gremlin inside Super G.

Welcome back to the Mak Tar Jah followed by the Knee Tar Jah!

Now, mosey back to COT for what turned out to be the fastest naming of an FNG I've ever been apart of.
Welcome, Small Things.
MARY: Yes
ANNOUNCEMENTS: CRI Training, Bethel Men's Shelter, Stuff The Bus
COT: 100%

Impossible Island Hopping

Leave a comment

WARMUP: moseyed with some stops along the way. No feedback on the cadence calling. The PIP I was on was in full effect. Finished with Bonnie Blairs X 10.
THE THANG: In honor of The Pirate, a 4 corners, 20 reps at each corner. Merkins, Derkins, Heels to Heaven, and Big Boys.

Mosey and Sprints 2X to length of the parking lot changing pace at every island. Another idea taken from Pirate.

Picked two islands to do an Impossible Mile:
First Lap: Burpee Broad Jumps
Second Lap: Lunge Walk
Third Lap: Bear Crawl
Fourth Lap: Mosey.

Everyone LOVED the Impossible Mile.

Truly an honor to GET TO share doing difficult things with these men.

MARY: some did, some not so much.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Stuff the Bus, LaGrama, Bethel, Bourbon, Cannoli Run!
COT: Lifting up all those going through life’s beatdowns and enjoying the time when the storms pass.

Another super humid morning but it was great seeing 11 other guys show up to get the day started right. Quick disclaimer then mosey around park stopping at each swing for 2 exercises. 10 counts of imperial Walker's, cherry pickers, tempo merkins, low slow squats, wide arm merkins, etc. Mosey down trail behind park to the grass hill for accumulating BLIMPS. 5 burpees, then either run up big hill or smaller side hill and return. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, nur up hill. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, 15 imp squat Walker's, bear crawl up hill (not my idea but someone really wanted to bear crawl). Same 5, 10, 15, then 20 merkins, run up hill. Same 5, 10, 15, 20, then 25 plank jacks and nur up hill. Last round 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 SSHs then mosey back to amphitheater. Partner up.

Yog back to COT for a few ab exercises then times up. Appreciate the opportunity @U08QLQH6J68
