Whetstone – The Vertical Relationship between Men

Leave a comment

15 Pax chose to make a downpainment on the day and learn more about Whetstone this morning at Colosseum. Rebound is leading the charge to educate the Pax on Whetstone and Shieldlock and incorporating Qs to discuss these topics. YHC was excited for the opportunity to Q and added a Blade in Maximus for additional pain and discussion.

THE THANG:

Mosey to parking lot
COP:
IWs x 10
SSH x 30
Strawberry pickers x 10
Mtn Climbers x 15
CDD x 10
Identification of those Pax currently in a Whetstone

Modified Dirty McDeuce
12 burpees
12 Big Boys
12 Squats
12 Merkins
Then a lap
Round 1 = OYO, Round 2 = in cadence, Round 3 = with a partner

Mention of hypocrisy “we are all hypocrites” and goal of “audio matching the video” through accountability and Whetstone.

Whetstone WOD

Leave a comment

Disclaimer: By participating in an F3 workout, you assume the risks inherent in doing so. I am not a professional. F3 makes no representations of any kind regarding your safety. Asked to share about whetstone and my experiences, here we go…

1. DORA: Rebel
– challenged me in areas I struggle: alcohol, devoting time to my M, getting my family to Church consistently
– Asks for progress updates every time we meet
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Reporting Progress
+ 200 merkins
+ 200 big boys
+ 200 squats
+ 200 LBC’s
– Bear crawl/power-skips

2. Partner run: Pusher AKA Big Question Eddie
– pushes me to think bigger; act better
– Always comes back when I ghost, some may be shocked to learn that F3 didn’t immediately stick with me!!
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Big Questions
+ Run to 160 and back, ask big questions of each other: who’s your whetstone? Who could be your stone/blade? What do you need in a whetstone relationship?

3. Partner transport: Long Duck
– full of stories and antidotes to frame your mind for the positive, I.e. attitude card
– Carried me in some of my struggles with alcohol and anger
– Pours himself into others to help them and himself
– Sets the example for how to be a better man

Carrying your man
+ partner carry, 2 laps
+ wheelbarrow, 1 lap
– repeat

4. Closing: Key takeaways
– find what you need in a stone, plus seek to share wisdom with a blade (it makes you a better man)
– Be open with them, get vulnerable
– You can have more than one stone, learn lessons from all relationships
– Find someone that sets the example for how to be a better man
