Helping your brother bear his burden

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Morrocan Night Club, Down Dog, Up dog, Merkins, Seated Surfers, KB squats

THE THANG: We began with a short mosey to the curb and back. Picked up our bells and lined up on a line in the parking lot. 50 man makers were called. It’s a lot. And it’s reminiscent of many of the burdens we carry. The PAX were challenged to push through and persevere. In turn, any PAX who finished was tasked to go take the bell of his brother and lighten the load. Demonstrating how we share the load with our brothers in need. No one goes alone.

After the glorious man makers, we moseyed to a more lit area for some station work. There were the following stations in a circle:
+Split Leg Squats 10 each leg
+Single Leg Deadlifts 10 each leg
+Calf Raises 20
+John Deere(lat pulls) 10 each arm
+American Hammers 20 IC
++The method of movements were bear crawls and overhead carries.
We completed 2 laps around the circle or so before COT.

COT: Praises for the acceleration of the Fort and the leadership were shared. Thanks for the opportunity to Q and participate in Q school week.

Stay Focused – Q-school edition

Leave a comment

11 Pax this morning with more seasoned vets and less newer members than expected. A good thing for me as a newer F3 PAX, I knew I could delegate some of the portions of the Q school lessons for the day!

Fishstix brought two left shoes so decided he would just do this workout without any shoes…. I think we finally found a way to slow this HIM down!

WARMUP: Slapshot started us off with a brief intro for Q school, emphasizing how the workout Q is essential to the F3 mission. The importance of the disclaimer was discussed reminding PAX that an FNG likely doesn’t know what an FNG is, so good idea to ask if there are any new guys instead.

Slapshot finished his portion of the Q with an impeccable example of how to take control of the workout and lead the PAX by altering and dictating pace of SSH cadence calling.

YHC took over and led the PAX down to Dave Gibson to the IvyBrook Academy parking lot. There we planked and performed some shoulder taps while discussing warmups (or lack thereof at most running AOs)

Continued on down Dave Gibson to the entrance of the schools where we performed SSH and then Al Gored while discussing some important components of successful workout designs – Overpreparing, Writing down Weinke, Having quick hitters in your back pocket in case finish early (tabata, EMOM, etc)

THE THANG: Mickey Mouse Burpee Sandwiches

station 1 (near end of school drive): Wide-arm Merkins
station 2 (far end of school drive): Diamond Merkins
Mid-point: Burpees (always 5)

Progressive circuit – start with 3 reps of merkins on each end with 5 burpees in the middle. next round 6 merkins each side with 5 burpees in middle. continue adding 3 merkins to each side.

We SSH for the 6 at station 1 after each round and discussed various components of successful workout designs (pearls on a string, 3S2T, time-boxing, etc)

Made through 4 rounds and headed back to Earthfare lot.

With about 4 minutes to spare we did a little running around the parking lot with 5k pace on the shorter parking lot sides and jog pace on the longer sides.

Finished at 0600

COT: Announcements – Bourbon Tasting fundraiser Saturday – see Cyclops posts on Slack

……..oh yeah, if you haven’t heard….. I may have forgot the shovel flag this morning after the workout. This should be fun….
