Whats the point of this

Leave a comment

Sometimes I wonder if a ‘backblast’ is important. Yes, I can here the admins now screaming their doctoral rhetoric at their phone screens. ‘Its for new guys to get ideas’, ‘Its to share with people that weren’t there’, ‘Its to get our name plugged into the all powerful algorithm and track our stats.’

I kinda think its BS. When F3 started we didn’t have any of this crap. Not to say change is bad (or good), but to say are we missing the point. F3 isn’t about any of the things we are told to use a backblast for. That’s one of the things I always loved about Indian Land, the fact you wont find any record of it anywhere. But we, and you know who we are, what we were about, and the legend was born.

I suggest this. If you are gonna right a backblast, tell me something I cant find on YouTube. If I need a workout, that’s easy to find. I want the meat. What was your challenge, mentally. Who did you push. Did the PAX overcome. Did you grow as a leader.

Are you forging your legacy?

If you want to know what we do at my workouts, then show up. Otherwise just know we will be there sharpening our steel. Ill call impossible tasks not for the physical work, but to test your mind and fortitude. And just know I WILL be right there with you. Good or Bad, BC is here to stay.

I’m sure Ill get kicked out of F3 for these statements

Commitment to the DRP

Leave a comment

YHC was excited to be asked to Q at the Yard to restart my DRP after a post Thanksgiving smartsack. It is because of the accountability and commitment to the Pax that I find myself leaving the cozy confines of my bed in the morning. While my will is stronger than before, it is this opportunity to get 1% better with my fellow Pax that drives me in the AM.

Weather 28 degrees and dark but sunny by 7:15

WARMUP:

Mosey to parking lot with a moving COP including:
SSH x 10 completed 6 times
Windmills/IW x 10 completed 5 times
Mtn Climbers x 10 completed 4 times
Plank Jacks x 10 completed 3 times
Monkey Humpers x 10 completed 2 times
Seal Jacks x 10 completed once

After each round, we added an exercise and moved to a new location.

Mosey to the back of the school for light poles
At each pole:

10 merkins
10 LBCs
10 Squat jumps

Mosey to benches
10 Durkins
10 Dips
bear crawl to other side and lunge walk back

Rinse and repeat 3 times

Finish with “Death by” burpees up to 9 and some Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Plenty of gratitude and prayers shared during COT. I am inspired by the courage of the Pax to share in COT. Thank you!
