EMOM at the movies…

WARMUP: SSH, Cherry Pickers, down dog, honey mooners, pigeon stretch, mosey to the parking lot in front of the movie theater.

THE THANG: 4 corner EMOM
(every minute on the minute)

PAX broke into three group and picked a corner to start at. Each corner had a different upper body exercise listed on a white board. You would preform the exercise for a minute straight then a buzzer would go off and you had 15 seconds to run to the next corner and get ready for the next exercise. Corners were about 80 yards apart. (No meters Merica)

Exercises were:

Thrusters with cinder block
Hand Release Merkins
Bear crawls
Curb Walks-(plank position facing curb and walked hands on top of curb then back down. Like step ups with hands….)

We did three laps of this then stoped and turned the boards over for new lower body exercises to do two more laps in the same fashion.

Lower body exercises:

Over Head Squats with cinder block
Butkus (Quick curb steps ups)
Jumping split squats
Duck walks

After that we ran to the fountain near movie theater and did wall sits while one person farmers carried bigger than normal cinder blocks around the fountain until each man went.

Then moseyed back to flag.

Racing at the Pit

Always an honor and a privilege to lead my F3 brothers in a workout. Like to try and mix it up a bit for the PAX so I researched the backblasts for this AO. Reached out to the Site Q to inquire what kind of gear is available onsite. Learned this site has a fire hose, a log, cindies, and biga** tires. Research complete, a plan was made.

WARMUP: SSHs and Burpees and then moseyed to our racing area.

THE THANG: Gear for this site is located by the garage towards the bottom of the road beside the stadium. Arrived early to scope out the area and set-up gear for racing so PAX could get to work right away, no wasted time. There is a side road right in front of the garage which was perfect for the plan.

Marked a starting line and placed 5 tires at this position and then marked a turnaround area approx. 40-50 yards from the starting line. This was our racing area. Turns out we only needed 4 tires so rolled one to the side.

Pit Crew area was the concrete pad in front of the garage. Laid out Cindies for the PAX to complete various exercises.

Format: Partner up. Partner 1 starts flipping the tire from the starting line towards the turnaround area while Partner 2 completes the Cindy exercises. Once exercises are completed, Partner 2 runs to swap with Partner 1. Continue to swap until your tire comes back from the turnaround area and crosses the starting line, which is now the finish line. We completed 4 races, exercises listed below.

Race #1 – Cindy Swings – 20 reps, OH Press – 20 reps
Race #2 – Simbas – 15 reps, Straight Lower Leg Lifts while holding Cindy – 15 reps
Race #3 – Bear Hug Cindy Squats – 20 reps, Bear Hug Alt Backward Lunges – 10 reps total
Race #4 – 12 Man Makers

Goal was for each partner to complete 2 rounds of the Cindy exercises while completing a lot of tire flips. Mission accomplished.

Side note, if you want to win tire flip races it is a good idea to have PaulyD on your team. With race 4 completed PAX helped YHC return the gear to the proper resting place.

We Indian Ran back to COT

MARY: Had time for 4min with Mary

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Serve, 4Bs, Trash PickUp, Read your NL

COT: STK!

Egypt > Desert > Promised Land Bootcamp

WARMUP: We started with a mile around campus, fleeing Egypt with a few dynamic stretches along the way. Made sure to circle back for the six. @U5MQ8FHV0 stepped up with some Side Straddle Hops while YHC went back for @U02DKM63B7B.
THE THANG: We finally arrived in the Desert, a few parking lot islands away from the Promised Land.
25 Merkins, 25 Squats, 25 Big Boy Sit-Ups, followed by a controlled run to the next aisle. Repeat.
YHC also learned what a zipper is (and apparently isn’t).
Our first complaint came from @U02DKM63B7B, which seemed fitting considering the Israelites’ experience in the wilderness. He also appointed @U0BEBRDB5U7 as his proxy for any reps he wouldn’t be completing.
Once we reached 100 reps of each, we swapped Merkins for Dips, courtesy of @U08NJ8FF1PF.
We finished with a sprint around the parking lot perimeter, making our final push into the Promised Land.
MARY: A little Mary roulette followed, with @U011KKZ17U6 calling Jennifer Lopez, only for @U02DKM63B7B to discover someone was apparently doing the Ben Affleck instead. Hilarious.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Consider donating to F3 to support something that’s changed so many of our lives. Be proactive in providing food for Bethel Men’s Shelter. Convergence next month at the Ranch (apparently there’s good parking). The Excavation at Forest Hill Fort Mill is November 13. A few parties coming up, details of which YHC has not retained.
COT: Prayers for safe travels, a successful surgery for @UJKGM3VKJ and a speedy recovery. Prayers for @U0AQZ0DGP97 as he prepares to start his new job next month. Prayers for the Pope and for those requests left unspoken.
