WARMUP: SSH, cherry pickers, greatest stretch ever, down dog, honey mooners, mosey to big parking lot above old Pike building

THE THANG: 4 corners each corner focused on a different muscle group and had various exercises. 25 reps each and did it for 5 laps. You would do the first set of exercises on lap 1 then move on to the second set on lap 2 etc…

Corner 1 (with Cindy or bumper plates)
Curls
Push press
Over head squats
Bent over rows
Floor bench

Corner 2
Merkins
Wide arm merkins
Diamond merkins
Carolina dry docks
Plank jacks

Corner 3
Squats
Jumps squats
Sumo squats
Calf raises on curb
Lunges

Corner 4
Big boys
LBC
Mountian climbers
Flutters
American hammers

After that we partnered up and did a bear crawl really race across the parking lot. Partner 1 started bear crawl while partner 2 ran from one end to the other. Where ever they met on the run back they switched until as a team they made it across the parking lot. All that lost had a 2 burpee punishment.

Moseyed back to WEP stage and did wall sits while raising arms and going up on toes and down. Then a balls to the wall contest. You held balls to the wall as long as you could if you dropped you did burpees until the last man dropped.

Our finisher was a set of 7. In front of the stage you did squats the climbed up wall and ran to back wall of stage for a mike Tyson.

After that we moseyed to flag for core work (arts and crafts for 15min) until 7:30.

MARY: Was glorious

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence 29th at WEP for The Fort’s birthday party (gifts not required) , read the letter of News every Sunday.

COT: prayer for BRR teams, PAX with injuries, and any PAX going through life hardships quietly

Saturday Fish Special

Leave a comment

Warm-up, lap around the park.
Five cones and cinder blocks were set up in the middle of the field. We began with a Dora style workout. Partner 1 – ran cupcakes between the cones while partner 2 began the cindy reps
100 – curls
200 – bent over rows
300 – upright presses

Next, murder bunnies to each cone, carry overhead back to the start and switch with partner. Partner 2 performed squats and ab exercises while waiting.

Last set, no partners everyone completes – bear crawl to first cone, 3 burpees , crawl bear back. bear crawl to next cone 6 burpees, crawl bear back…so on and so on until the last cone 15 burpees.

Yellow Brick Road at Kingsley

Leave a comment

Arrived early to grab a parking spot near COT because I brought some “battle buddies” for the PAX, two brick pavers for each man to carry during the workout. At first, they felt pretty light. But as the workout progressed, those same bricks became harder to carry and lift. The weight hadn’t changed, but our strength to carry it was wearing down. Life’s burdens can feel the same way. They start small, and we tell ourselves, “I’ve got this. I can handle it OYO.” But as life piles on, what once felt manageable starts weighing us down. Before we know it, we’re struggling to stay afloat and the men beside us may have no idea. At the end of the workout, I asked the PAX: What if we went back to the beginning, gave just one man two bricks, and told him he could share that load with the brothers around him? How much easier would that burden have been to carry together? That’s the message that stuck with me from the EXCAVATION session at Forest Hill Church: We were never designed to carry our burdens OYO! Reach out. Cry out. Speak out. Whatever is weighing you down, you don’t have to carry it alone. You have brothers in the gloom who love you and want to help, but you have to let them know what you’re carrying. Don’t let fear, shame, or guilt keep you on the OYO path. Asking for help takes courage. And when you speak up, you may give another man the courage to do the same. Love ya, fellas and praying your day is filled with the blessing of being loved and loving others!

WARMUP: SSHICx15, HBWsICx10, LSSsICx7, LBACsx20, OHCsx10 with Burpees mixed in.

THE THANG: Moseyed from COT to the car so PAX could pick up their battle buddies – 2 brick pavers. The ask was not to let go of your battle buddy during the workout.

We moseyed over to the parking lot behind Panera and started an Indian Run around the parking lot to finish our warmup. Every guy made 3 trips up the line, onto the next thing.

1/2 DORA: 50 Burpees (bricks had to be raised OH), 100 SSH, 150 LBCs (bricks held in extended press position while performing the exercise)
Sweat was flowing, onto the next thing.

Jack Webb w/ Bricks: 1:4 -> 10:40, 1st exercise was Merkins, 2nd exercise was OH Claps
Arms were smoked, onto the next thing.

Superman Poses w/Bricks: 4 different poses held for approx. 10-15sec. each, so much fun the first go around we did it again.
Core work completed, moseyed back to the car to drop off our battle buddies, and then headed to COT.

MARY: Had enough time for a few PAX to call various core exercises.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Serve at Bethel tonight, Fort Mill Care Center, read your newsletter

COT: STK!

Every Second Counts

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Blue took the reins and rocked his first leadership effort as a pax of The Fort! SSH, Windmill, Merkin, etc

THE THANG: Pax moseyed to the parking garage at Sunbelt Rentals (The Forbidden Zone according to OldBay) and split into two teams

Cindies were available for some weighted exercises at the top level
Bottom level was used for Core exercises

Teams took turns completing one exercise with 10 reps at the top while other team did a continuous core exercise at the bottom. Then the teams swapped. Then swapped again and continued to the next exercise.

Pair 1 = Squats (top) & Balls to wall (bottom)
Pair 2 = Swings & People's chair
Pair 3 = OH press & plank
Pair 4 = Bent over rows & Flutters

After the first round, pax paused to hear about Every Second Counts from "The Bear" on Hulu. Then teams tackled a second round of the same series at a faster pace.

Teams gathered for one final pair that included Man Makers at the top and American Hammer at the bottom.

Mosey back home

MARY: Completed throughout the workout

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Trash pickup 0745 at Harris St Park on Sat 8/22, VQ by Blue at Dawn Patrol on Tue 9/8

COT: Yes!

Pax offered many compliments to Blue on this solid cadence count and terminology during the warm up. He was completely unflustered by Twister's heckling immediately to his right. While he's not a professional today, Blue clearly tapped into his prior professional status as a US Marine many years back. Well done!

Thanks to Site Q OldBay for indulging a little extra risk in exploring the Sunbelt parking garage. The Flock cameras were in full view, so perhaps he's not completely out of the woods yet. Show up next Thur to find out!

The pax pushed through a steamy morning with Cindy offering few complaints. Not sure if that's a good thing (the lack of complaints), but I know everyone was drenched at COT and we covered the major fitness elements.

"Every Second Counts" was the mantra for the staff in the TV series "The Bear". For the most part, it drove a mindset of performance on a consistently high pace, so it seemed an appropriate theme for an F3 workout. At the same time, it can also be heard as a theme for Presence (ie, living in the moment) and can thus be a theme across all elements of life. Where could this apply in your life?

Thanks to all for their Presence today and to Old Bay for the invite!
