WARMUP:
Lead by Snooker. Did a great job.

THE THANG:
Moseyed around a bit, then landed at a parking lot with 4 cones set up about 50 yards apart. The thang was to do 11's, but across 4 corners.

Corner 1 – 10 Merkins. Next lap will be 9.
Lunge walk to Corner 2
Corner 2 – 1 Bombjacks. Next lap will be 2.
NUR to Corner 3.
Corner 3 – 10 Squats. Next lap will be 9.
Bear Crawl to Corner 4.
Corner 4 – 1 Mountain Climbers. Next lap will be 2.
Run to Corner 1.

Repeat until the "11's" exchange is complete.

Finished right on time.

Impossible Island Hopping

Leave a comment

WARMUP: moseyed with some stops along the way. No feedback on the cadence calling. The PIP I was on was in full effect. Finished with Bonnie Blairs X 10.
THE THANG: In honor of The Pirate, a 4 corners, 20 reps at each corner. Merkins, Derkins, Heels to Heaven, and Big Boys.

Mosey and Sprints 2X to length of the parking lot changing pace at every island. Another idea taken from Pirate.

Picked two islands to do an Impossible Mile:
First Lap: Burpee Broad Jumps
Second Lap: Lunge Walk
Third Lap: Bear Crawl
Fourth Lap: Mosey.

Everyone LOVED the Impossible Mile.

Truly an honor to GET TO share doing difficult things with these men.

MARY: some did, some not so much.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Stuff the Bus, LaGrama, Bethel, Bourbon, Cannoli Run!
COT: Lifting up all those going through life’s beatdowns and enjoying the time when the storms pass.

Suspicious F3 Behaviour Around Lowes!

Leave a comment
  • WARMUP: Abe Vigoda, Downward Dog, Honeymooner, Pigeon Stretch, SSH.
  • THE THANG: Mosey to 4 corners around Lowe's. Pain Station equipped with F3 cards. Each concentrating on 4 areas: Arms, Cardio, Core, Legs. The Cardio & Legs stacks were noticeably missing along with their mini flashlights. Lowes confiscated the items assuming the PAX was up to no good and will try to rob them F3 style! The Pax improvised with 2 remaining decks.

MARY: Gas Pumper ( @U5PLMTS9L ' favorite), Heel
touches, Rosalitas
