I swear I didn’t stack the deck

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey around the lot, some SSH, Windmill, Moroccan Nightclubs and Walkers of both the Imperial and Hillbilly variety… then a mosey to the lower lot by the Church of God to get to some smoother pavement

THE THANG:

Standard Deck of Cards workout

♠️ : Squats
♣️: LBC (in cadence)
❤️: Jack Webb
♦️: Flutter (in cadence)

Modified:
Aces: Lap around the parking lot
Jokers: 10 burpees

Lots of mumble chatter throughout. Let me tell you that nothing makes you a card counter like knowing the K of Jack Webb, 3 Aces and a Joker are left in the dwindling deck! Got through almost the whole deck. Actually had A-Joker-A left at the end. Promise it wasn’t planned… I kind of wish it was

MARY: 30 seconds of Freddy Mercury to get to 0600

ANNOUNCEMENTS: There will probably be a Cannoli Run in 2024… Be ready…

Sandbag Fun

Leave a comment

Solo brought out an FNG so little longer than normal disclaimer. Mosey around outside loop. Stop at first corner for SSHs, Slow Squats, and Windmills. Mosey to next corner for Merkins, Peter Parkers, and Parker Peters. Mosey back to cars to pick up sandbags and move to school entrance.

Sandman WOD. 20 bent over rows, 10 thrusters, then front carry bag about 100M. Repeat this 6 times. Not sure why, but the front carries are the worst. After everyone completed we took a mosey on the inner loop to give our arms a rest.

Back to bags for Lucky 7s. 7 rounds of 7 cleans, 7 front squats, and 7 jump over burpees. Bubba Gump is allergic to burpees so I think he just did merkins as well as curls b/c he does what he wants. Everyone was pretty gassed after round 4 so we stopped and explained the 5 core principals to the FNG. Then pushed hard to complete one more round. Time was almost up so back to COT for a few ab exercises.

Welcome FNG Rutabaga (think Jamie Oliver). And big congrats to Flounder and his M for 44th wedding anniversary. It seemed appropriate for Flounder to take us out which he graciously did. Thanks Maximus for the opportunity!

Each dude in shieldlock took a turn leading the pax. We covered all parts of body and it was glorious. We each spoke on what it means for us to be in our shieldlock. Thanks for those who joined us.

Konvergence for Kenya

Leave a comment

We converged on 6/10 to with a special weinke designed by the PAX of F3 Nairobi (but “may” have been augmented by Poppins…)
Weinke

Warm up
Various, but highlight was 150 SSH in sets of 50. #CrowdPleaser

Groups of 5
Indian Run
5 burpees by the guys at the back

Dora on the football practice field
50 burpees – bear crawl
200 merkins – bear crawl
200 squats – lunge walk
300 4-count mountain climbers – frog leap a partner

Lots of bat flipping on the 4-count of the mountain climbers and the frog leaping

The guys in Kenya average a 5 mile transit to and from the AO, so a group of PAX dutifully pre-ran and post-ran 5 miles after the beatdown. YHC took a bit of flack, because it was me that spitballed that idea and then did not pre or post run. I did bring my 2.0 to the workout to try to cover the fact that I wouldn’t be running extra, but to no avail. Badlands 100% called me out.

Welcome FNGs
– Dungeon Master
– V-neck

Pre-runners:
– Badlands, Poppins, Rolloff, Maximus, Funhouse, Sasquatch, Cyclops, Beaker
– rucking: Sprocket, NakedandAfraid
Post-run:
– Badlands, Poppins, Rolloff, Maximus, Funhouse
All running
– Gears

The plan was to raise $$ to purchase a vehicle for transportation of Nairobi PAX to workouts, supporting efforts to assist in community and coordinating donations etc. The need is tremendous and our financial support is magnified in Kenya.

As of this backblast, we raised $2620. I have no idea when you’re reading this, but you could possibly still contribute and Poppins may still have T-Shirts in the back of his vehicle: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-our-kenyan-f3-brothers?member=26869695&sharetype=teams

Announcements:
Q-School Wednesday 6/14 at Bushwood
The Fort Retreat 8/11-8/13 (Register now!)
https://criout.regfox.com/f3-him-camp

Safari (F3 Nairobi Nantan) facetimed in at the end to offer up a prayer closing out COT.

This backblast respectfully submitted by Band Camp
