The Impossible Mile

Leave a comment

20 men rolled out of bed and got better this morning. There were ruckers, runners, and bootcampers. Conditions were pleasant (44 and clear). Here’s what we did:

The Thang
“The Impossible Mile Challenge”
– 1 Lap Burpee Broadjump
– 1 lap Lunge Walk
– 1 lap Bear Crawl
– 1 lap Run

<@UGU3XR5RP> finished first and thus was crowned “King of the Ring.”

We take on these challenges to prove our strength. On the surface, this was a physical beast. But during the challenge, it was apparent that this was just as much mental. No one chooses to do these exercises on their own. Candidly, it’s dangerous, difficult, and dare I say, impossible. But there’s a lesson in the face of challenges: will you quit when it gets hard or will you dig deep and push through? Whatever it takes to keep going, do that. If it means taking a rest and going again, do that. You must push past your perceived limitations to find the strength within. You have what it takes. Keep going.

Aye!

Hold on to your balls

Leave a comment

Everybody issued a soccer ball to keep for the duration.

Run with ball. Then hop with ball between ankles past all the fit freaks of f45.

Circle up w the usual, but make sure you include your ball.

Take a break and dribble ball around lot.

More circle of the usual.

Dribble ball again.

Hop ball back towards cot and engage in a crazy 8.

Mary.

Hop back towards cot and return your blue ball.

The end.

When you Q Block Party, Cubbie likes you to share your “why” because a man who has a “why” to live can bear almost any “how.”

My why is my desire to be reliable for those I love. I want to be able to carry the heavy things and the heavy burdens of my family and friends. F3 strengthens me physically, emotionally, and spiritually – making me resilient in the face of adversity.

Last month at Disney, my son and I were rushing to catch a bus from Hollywood Studios to Magic Kingdom. We had plans to meet my wife and daughter and this bus was the only way to get there on time. I could see it in the distance, loaded and ready to leave. I knew my 5-year-old’s legs couldn’t get there in time after a full day of walking, so I picked him up and ran to catch the bus (notching a couple kills on the way). Without F3, I’m not certain I would have made that move. This physical endurance is built by the Daily Red Pill.

To me, the COT is the best part of the workout. What we share is so valuable. We have the antidote to male loneliness in the form of genuine care and concern with a heavy dose of sophomoric humor and dynamic shame goading. It’s the perfect recipe for a man to feel included. Sharing our struggles lessens their effect and celebrating our wins doubles their impact. This is the mental and spiritual catalyst for impact and improvement.

So, what’s my “why?” You are. You make me a better man. You make me a better husband, father, friend, and leader. And that’s why I’ll keep coming for another 11+ years.

Aye!

All elbows

Leave a comment

WARMUP: ssh, imp walkers, hillbilly walkers – all in cadence. Then we moseyed to nice grassy area to plank while instructions for the workout were given
THE THANG: 2 stations, one on each end of the building and one home base. Each station has a list of 6 assignments consisting of various exercises and rep counts. Pax alternate running to one station, then the other, doing one assignment at each stop. In between each is a stop at the home base for 5 makhtar n’daiyes – I think we ended up with 65 of those. We had a few mins left at the end, so did a wall sit until 6 and continued our conversation on various nighttime entertainment alternatives in Charlotte
