We figured it all out

Leave a comment

WARMUP: ran to the back entrance of the school, 20 SSH, 20 merkins, 10 low slow squats, 8 windmills, 10 cherry pickers.
THE THANG: sets of 4 on 3 exercises. Started with 20 step ups, 20 dips, 25 flutters – we did this 4x.

Then YHC discovered a new fence in the ROTC area but it had a gate where we figured out how to open it. Next set was 10 pull ups, 20 merkins, 20 squats – 4x.

Next was a run around to the bus lot for lunge walks, then more running, then 20 CDDs, 20 crunches…rinse and repeat with 20 lunges added in.

As we ran all over campus, we talked about new energy and new ideas for Bushwood – all things Fogerty is taking to the memory bank. And Old Bay has got some ideas!
MARY: a little round the horn for Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter topics like men’s shelter, HIM camp coming up
COT: CSPAN round robin from the 3 of us

COT:
Quote from Airborne: It’s easier to raise a son than fix a broken young man. Try to do the harder thing (like waking up to workout). Cause that harder thing for me is often being patient and soft with my words around a 9-year old boy that shares my last name. I’m more emotionally built to power through burpee snatches… parenting effectively takes work

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

Choose Your Cluster

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Pledge of Allegiance then Mosey to FMRX.

THE THANG:
4 cluster of cones set up in the parking lot. 3 cones in each cluster. One exercise (and count) on each cone. Pax, OYO, run the loop through downtown Fort Mill, choose a cluster of cones, do the exercise in the cluster, then rinse and repeat. The cones may or may not have been repurposed from yesterday’s workout at Ring of Fire.

MARY:
Some had just a few minutes for Freddies and Flutters.

Awesome work by all pax. Thanks, FunHouse, for the opportunity to lead!
