Leave a comment

WARMUP: Run To Business 21
THE THANG: Thought we would have a dry morning but Mother Nature had heavy rain in store for us. It started pouring exactly at 0515 and lasted to about COT. Some pole dancing was on tap for my Q at Minnow Pond so I had pax mosey over to business 21 where there are 5 telephone poles about 1/8 mile apart. Pax started at pole 1 did an exercise and ran about 1/4 mile to road sign and ran back up hill to first pole do exercise then move to second pole and do that exercise. This pattern continued to all 5 poles where completed. Exercises were 10 reps at each pole of Hand Release Merkins, Big Boys, Monkey Humpers, Carolina Dry Docks and Hand Release Diamond Merkins. 3.5-4.25 miles where ran.

Are you able to pivot when an obstacle is in the way

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, windmills, cherry pickers, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters, arm circles, Moroccan nightclubs
THE THANG: up and down hill with LSS at bottom and big boys at top x3
Wind sprints and ne’er backx5
Amphitheater 10 in cadence burpees we were suppose to go to playground but with not knowing about construction we pivoted to multiple stops around WEP for lunges, hand release merkins, and American hammers. Finished off at wall for step ups, derkins and dips.
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: marriages, addictions, and family changes that cause dynamics in the home.
COT: early into the workout the site Q asked to share my “why I do F3” it is simple because of you all. I was definitely a sad clown about 12 years ago when 2 guys were coaching my sons soccer team. I would drop him off and then go for a run. They asked if I ever heard about this workout group called F3. I said I’ll think about it. 1 day later when going to get a haircut I ran into another guy he said let me tell you about this group I’ve been working out with called F3. As a new believer ( I had been agnaustic until this time) I knew God was putting men into my life to change my perspective on life and him. Because of the men I have met and that have given me so much I want to give back to each of you and to men that have not been introduced to what we have. I know I am not the best at getting guys to come out but I love getting to walk in life with all of you that are coming out and that bring others to the gloom. Love you all.

It certainly wasn’t hot

Leave a comment

WARMUP: 3 gathered in the wet because they decided today was a day to get a little better. We took off towards the engineering building where the mini wall is located and did SSH, cherry pickers, windmills, low slow squats, merkins. 5 minutes into the workout and we were already wet so we were definitely committed to the weather.
THE THANG: Made our way over to WEP for some old school drill bits.
At each drill bit which are now bench swings, we did 1 exercise but added an exercise and count at each new swing.
– 10 bombjacks
– 20 diamond merkins
– 30 American hammers
– 40 squats
– 50 flutters
– 60 calve raises

The last 2 swings we just did the flutters and calves.

Ran back to the small wall for 2 sets of: 20 step ups, 20 dips, 20 derkins (only 10 derkins for the second round).

Ran down to the small parking lot for a wall sit where each guy stepped out to do 2 burpees and then rinse and repeat. Then back to COT.
MARY: 1 round each guy call cadence before time ran out
ANNOUNCEMENTS: men’s shelter
COT: CSPAN style around the group for some prayers and praises.
