It was a privilege to lead the men today on the 1st Golden Corral workout for 2024. Thirty degree, dry air never felt so good! If you don’t post in the winter time, you are really missing out. Slow Jams announced that the shovel flag will be passed next week so be on the lookout for that. GC is my regular stop on Tuesdays and I’ve enjoyed spending time with him. He was a steady, entertaining presence every week, and did a fine job as site Q. Smuggler was also with us today as he continues his comeback. Keep it going brother! Here’s to another year of F3 at The Fort!

F45 Cornucopia Workout

Leave a comment

Cold morning at Slow Burn. I set up a number of workout stations in the parking. I was tempted to set it up outside F45, but I decided not to start the day being an A-Hole (wait for the sun to rise).
Started with a mosey around the buildings, back to the start point for COP (SSH, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, and Plank Stretches).
Next, we partnered up for the workout stations. Partner 1 ran a lap around the parking lot while Partner 2 performed the exercise. Rotation after both partners completed exercises.
Stations
1. Squat with 60# sandbag
2. Box jump/set up
3. Kettlebell Curl
4 Jump Rope
5. Plate Crunch
6. Ab Wheel
7. 40# Sandbag Burpee

We covered cover 2 miles and 2 rounds of exercises
Great job guys!
