Kitchen Faucet Was Turned Off At The ‘Sink

Bring your sand bag. Those were the instructions.
WARMUP: Short mosey with a few of the typical warmup exercises.
THE THANG: Grab your bag…sandbag, and meet me by the flag poles.
I reintroduced the GoRuck 60×60 and let them know it would be a regular exercise this morning. For the 1 person reading this, if you’re not sure what the 60×60 is, here you go.
Start with the bag on the ground in front of your feet. Bend over and put your hands on the bag, drop back to a plank, execute a pushup with your chest touching the bag, pop up into the bottom of a squat, rack the sandbag to a front-rack position, stand up then toss the sandbag over your head once you get to the top of the movement. That is 1. Turn around, address the sandbag and do it again. Repeat for 60 seconds.
To ensure we knew how to execute it, we performed our first 60×60.
Rack the bag and make our way behind the school to the back drop-off entrance.
15 of each exercise:
Simbas (because I love them and they’re harder with a sandbag)
Flutters with press. At rep #8, I was called out for not actually pressing my sandbag so I performed 8 correct reps once everyone else completed their 15. I’m thankful IJ called me out as I’m sure others saw this yet didn’t speak up. We need men in our lives who will speak up.
60×60
Rack the sandbag and meet at the other end of the back stretch behind the school.
15 of each exercise:
Squats
Dead Lifts (Hopefully with proper form)
Thrusters
Slow(er) Calf Raises
60×60
Rack the sandbag and meet at the corner of the loop by the lighted sign.
15 of each exercise:
Partner Derkins (no sandbag)
Curls
Overhead Press
Chest Press (15 I/C actually means 30)
60×60
Rack the sandbag and meet over by the rock
Another 60×60
Partner Up
Partner 1: Farmers Carry the two sand bags an untold distance, probably 40yds then back.
Partner 2: Mountain Climbers
Flapjack
Rack the sandbag and go back to COT.

MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Rock Hill Rooster (I think) Partnership with Bethel on Sept 6!
All the others are in the Newsletter, or should be.
COT: Indeed

Are you able to pivot when an obstacle is in the way

WARMUP: SSH, windmills, cherry pickers, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters, arm circles, Moroccan nightclubs
THE THANG: up and down hill with LSS at bottom and big boys at top x3
Wind sprints and ne’er backx5
Amphitheater 10 in cadence burpees we were suppose to go to playground but with not knowing about construction we pivoted to multiple stops around WEP for lunges, hand release merkins, and American hammers. Finished off at wall for step ups, derkins and dips.
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: marriages, addictions, and family changes that cause dynamics in the home.
COT: early into the workout the site Q asked to share my “why I do F3” it is simple because of you all. I was definitely a sad clown about 12 years ago when 2 guys were coaching my sons soccer team. I would drop him off and then go for a run. They asked if I ever heard about this workout group called F3. I said I’ll think about it. 1 day later when going to get a haircut I ran into another guy he said let me tell you about this group I’ve been working out with called F3. As a new believer ( I had been agnaustic until this time) I knew God was putting men into my life to change my perspective on life and him. Because of the men I have met and that have given me so much I want to give back to each of you and to men that have not been introduced to what we have. I know I am not the best at getting guys to come out but I love getting to walk in life with all of you that are coming out and that bring others to the gloom. Love you all.
