2025 PGA Championship – Quail Hollow

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Pledge of Allegiance
THE THANG:
Inspired by the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow this will be a loop with 18 stops. The distance between the stops are based on the length of the holes (slightly modified down to get us 3 miles instead of the actual length of 4.3). The stops were marked with cones.
•Red = Par 4 = 4 Burpees
•Yellow = Par 3 = 20 Big Boys
•Green = Par 5 = 20 American Hammers
•Green Mile = Written on cardboard signs

We stuck together for the first 8 holes (1.25 miles) and then I turned the fast guys loose to run the remainder of the course (1.75 miles).

I didn’t hear it all, but I did hear some great mumble chatter:
– “Where’s the cart girl?” – Cyclopes
– “What’s the distance from the senior tees?” – Barry Manilow
– “There’s no such thing as a par 6, right?” – Dark Helmet

Thank you Nasa for the call.

COT:
Thank you Slapshot for your dedication and efforts as the 1st F Q!

Congratulations Bonsai and Time Machine on taking on the 1st F Q roles and to Cyclopes on assuming the LDP role. Really looking forward to seeing what you bring!

AMRAP 4 AUTISM 2025

Leave a comment

14 Bootcampers showed up (3 more for 6 @ 6) for the 4th annual AMRAP 4 AUTISM. YHC was humbled to lead this event again and thankful to all who’ve donated and those who showed up for the workout!

WARMUP: A lap around the park with a few stops along the way for the following services.
– 131 SSH – 1 in 31 children in the US are diagnosed with autism
– 60 squats – CDC estimates $60K per year of extra cost to raise a child with autism.
– 36 LBC – Two years ago the diagnosis rate was 1 in 36
THE THANG: YHC had a trailer full of Cindy’s and was ready for whoever showed! After the warmup I explained the following rules of engagement:
1. 36 min AMRAP
2. Partner count
3. 1 round = all 5 exercises
4. All exercises complete before moving to next round
5. Hands never leave the block. Autistic people never get to remove autism from their lives. For this 36 min we will not move our hands from the block.
Enough rules. Time to work!
1. 54 man makers
2. 54 frog squats
3. 54 yard fair carry with both blocks
4. 54 bent over rows
5. 54 BBBS

Finished with a last man standing sprint race with Stone Cold beating out Slapshot by a hair!
MARY: Nah
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Canoli Run

Started with a nice warmup basic

SSH
Windmill
Mnt climbers
Stretching
Merkins
Night clubs

Moseyed to a steep hill. Did hill repeats where we alternated between merkins and sit-ups. Then ran all the way to the other hill and did more of the same.

Got back to the parking lot where we did a triangle top was burpees the other two points were flutters and HR merkins. After 5 rounds of that… got to the basketball court where we did about 15 minutes of core/abs work.

Solid workout better mumblechatter!

Dont Try This Alone

Leave a comment

Decent weather brought out 6 Pax for an 0630 start. 2 more came in at 0632 after picking deer carcus out of Senator Tressel’s grill…but that’s another story.

WARMUP: Mosey around the park towards our destination, with some stops and work along the way. Destination was the vert ramp on the backside of the ball park. Two steep inclines opposite of each other was where we would spend the next 55ish minutes.
THE THANG: Partner up. Start at bottom of hills and each partner runs opposite way to top and back where you meet for exercises. Rules of engagement were you must run and rep together. Meaning if you run back to the bottom and your partner isn’t there yet you keep running to bring him in. When one partner had all the reps they could take (or you were done with the exercise) then you take off running. No rest/cheerleading here. Exercises were as follows:
– 50 Burpees
– 100 Donkey Kicks
– 150 Squats
– 200 LBC
– 250 Shoulder Press

Pax got done quicker than expected so we got some extra credit in the form of NURing up each hill twice and going through the exercises again, albeit smaller rep count. Same rules applied – we nur and we do the reps together.
MARY: BROGA
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Important stuff
COT: Priceless

NMM: Was great to be out leading this morning after a week or so of laziness and not posting. Pax were encouraged to lean into the 2ndF of this great thing called F3. Rather that be shieldlock, whetstone, coffeteria, taco Tuesday or any other form formal or informal. As men we tend to be loaners or surface level with other men. You are missing a HUGE benefit of F3 if you’re not accelerating 2ndF.

Was truly an honor. Divac out.

3 leg tour

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Ditch Witch led!

THE THANG: YHC had a plan pulled from previous Alcatraz backblasts, but it was a pretty morning. So, here’s a list of what we DID NOT do:
– 30 pull ups
– 45 burpees
– 90 squats
– 120 dips
– and laps (thanks Decibel)
and/or a ladder courtesy of Backdraft
– 10 burpees
– 20 jumping lunges
– 30 Carolina Dry Docks
– 40 jump squats
– 50 merkins
Instead we covered 3.5ish miles and stopped occasionally to regroup. We went to the end of Anchorage, Windward, and Point Clear. At the stops, we did some exercises in cadence, some yoga, or just considered the myriad of ways this workout siphoned and what a jerk YHC is.
MARY: led by the PAX in a circle
ANNOUNCEMENTS: 3 CSAUPS this summer – in the https://7tqd.short.gy/f3-thefort-newsletter
COT: a stirring word from Aquaman on the importance of all 3 Fs. Keep posting.
