This workout was simple, but not easy. I’m not sure what made it difficult – it was only four exercises done six times over a couple miles, but I think I’m going to feel it later. The beauty of its design was you had the opportunity to converse with the guy next to you between sets and see what is going on in his world. I heard laughs, grunts, celebrations, and struggles. Men shared their hearts but still put in the work. That’s what this is all about – asking the guy next to you how he’s doing. Listening to what he says and note what he doesn’t say. Men suck at asking for help. The signs are there if we know where to look. My encouragement for you is to reach up when you need help. But also, reach down when you have help to give. F3 has the opportunity to literally save lives if we will pour into Fellowship and Faith as much as we do Fitness. Strengthen yourself mentally and spiritually as much as you do physically. Do that and we will change the world: one household at a time.
Aye!

Run to the Forest and have fun on their hills
WARMUP: It’s Friday and warmer. Those are 2 plus signs. Guys showed up, another plus. I remembered the disclaimer and mission of F3, green light. We took off for a mosey in the parking lot and stopped after maybe 1/4 mile, maybe. SSH, windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squat, merkins, runners stretch. Warmup over.
THE THANG: Ran to the back of the HT where the smelly things live. 10 merkins, 20 squats, 30 crunches. Ran to the other end of the HT, another 10, 20, 30. Ran all the way through the apartment complex and to the bottom of the hill, 10, 20, 30 (I think).
Bottom of the hill we assembled for 7s. Burpees at the bottom, squats at the fire station. Pick up the 6 when done.
Ran back through the apt complex, another 10, 20, 30. Then to the back of the HT where we partnered up. Partners ran in opposite directions and when they meet up, 10 partner merkins, 20 partner squats (basically in cadence). Ran around HT again for the full loop. Rinse and repeat.
MARY: yep, sprinter sit-up, hammers, side plank gravediggers.
