ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:
This BB is going to be easy, at least for the workout part. In honor of the 10th anniversary of my first F3 workout – 6/29/2016 at Pantheon with Jekyll on Q – I decided to recreate his Q nearly verbatim. I was able to find his original back blast. This is yet ANOTHER reason to do these things!!
WARMUP:
Mosey around the lower parking lot, then circle up near COT for the following:
Then mosey over to the top of the hill on the roadway next to the USMC JROTC building.
THE THANG:
Gam Guillotine
Start at the top of the hill.
Round 1
5 squats, run to stop sign at bottom, then do 5 jump squats. 1 round is up and back. Do 5 rounds total. Ended up back up at the top.
Lungewalked 1/2 way down, crabwalk 1/2 way down. NUR back up the hill to start.
Round 2
5 lunges each leg, then run down to bottom, then 5 Mary Catherines each leg (or 5 jump squats each leg). Do 5 rounds total. Ended up back at the top of the hill.
Round 3
Jack webbs. 1 Merkin, then 4 overhead claps. 10 rounds total, to where we did 10 merkins, 40 OH claps last round.
Back to COT.
>> It was just as horrible today as it was 10 years ago, and it hurt ALOT back then. Back then we ran 'the camelback' portion of the path to heart attack hill in Tega Cay, a short section less than 1/10th a mile but had 12-15% grade. I remember almost passing out on round 8 of the hill. This time we had only 5-7% grade and it was still nasty.
MARY:
We got back to COT with enough time to knock out 20 flutters (2 ct), that's it. Time's up.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Alot going on. Read the newsletter, get involved. If you do not see something in the newsletter or hear in the COTs that you want to push, then push it, lead it. Invigorate your male community leadership.
COT:
Alot lifted up. Welcome back Tang!
Thanks for the opportunity to lead.
Blessings and SYITG,

Coming back from a road trip late at night I managed approx 3 1/2 hours of sleep and found myself contemplating a 'no show' for my Q at ROF @ 4:30 in da morning. I recently had the honor of participating in our Greater Than CSAUP overnight ruck event. That is what pushed me past the selfishness of wanting to choose comfort over commitment, brotherhood. If I could endure that event with no sleep, then I can Q a 45min workout on 3 1/2 hours of sleep! I'm grateful to be surrounded by men who push me to be greater than! Feet hit the floor, water splashed on the face, a little caffeine and it was GO time!
WARMUP: Usual suspects
THE THANG:
Moseyed to the benches on the side entrance of NAFO, Asked PAX to find a spot on a bench.
#1 – 2 exercises: Step Ups & BulgarianSplitSquats
15 reps each leg of both exercises
10 reps each leg of both exercises
5 reps each leg of both exercises
Upon completion asked PAX to partner up for some Time Under Tension
Partner#1 holds Al Gore while Partner#2 completes 10 jump squats. FlapJack until you complete an accumulative rep count of 100 jump squats. Legs were burning by this point.
Moseyed to the pullup bars while picking up a Cindy along the way.
#2 – 2 Exercises: Pullups & ManMakers
Perform both exercises in the following sequence:
1 pull-up, 2 manmakers, 3 pullups, 4 manmakers, etc…
Continue till you reach the count of 10 and then reverse
count back down to 1. Will add up to 50 reps of each
exercise. PAX who finished 1st ended the pain for the
rest of the suffering souls.
Walked over to the hill with Cindy for a little Quadzilla w/ some core work.
#3 – This was done OYO. Run down the hill to the stop sign,
NUR back up to the top of the hill. Grab Cindy and
complete 15 BBSw/Cindy. Rinse&Repeat. We managed
to get in the minimum requirement of 4 rounds to quality
as a Quadzilla routine.

WARMUP: Mosey from COT to the playground, usual of suspects followed for a typical F3 warmup.
THE THANG: Partner was the theme for this workout. Cubbie asks that each Q share the reason why they keep coming out to F3. For me, my fellow PAX are the reasons I keep coming out in the morning. Not only for the opportunity to possibly help my fellow man, but also to receive the help I need in my life. Very grateful for the partners in life I've made in F3.
Partner Work @ the Playground
1 partner bear crawls to the cones set up outside the playground area, once you make it to the cones perform 3 burpees, and then bear crawl back to the playground where the other partner was performing a swing crunch with a merkin. Keep flap-jacking until you reach an accumulative rep count of 100 for the swing crunch+merkins.
To really burn out our chest and arms we went immediately into some time under tension. 1 partner holds extended plank while the other partners performs 10 merkins, keep flap-jacking until you reach an accumulative rep count of 100. Arms and chest smoked.
Partner Work behind the Ampitheater
1 partner NURs up the hill behind the ampitheater and then moseys back to the bottom, partner #2 performs 10 jump squats, 10 jumping lunges, and 10 Apolo Ohnos and then holds Al Gore until partner #1 returns. Flap-jack for 5 rounds. Legs smoked.
Partner Work in the Ampitheater
