Burpees each hole = 1 x hole par (Par 4 = 4 burpees)

Cheese and Bear Shredder Block Party

Leave a comment

Mentioned the core principles and mission of F3
WARMUP: Ran up the hill across the street of the AO to the parking lot and began the Warmup consisting of SSH, Windmills, Morrocon NC, Imperial Walkers, and Strawberry Pickers
THE THANG: We began with the Cheese Shredder and then went into the next exercises as follows:
From the first light pole, we would do Burpees in a ladder starting with one Burpee and went to the last light pole and did 10 Mountain Climbers. The mode of transportation between the light poles for the first round was a Bear Crawl. Then we ran back to the first pole and continued to 2 Burpees and went to the last pole and did 20 Mountain Climbers with the mode of transportation as Lunges. So, we completed 8 rounds of these exercises in the above pattern with the mode of transportation in Round 3 as Crawl Bear, Round 4 as Crab Walk and rinse and repeat the modes for Rounds 5-8. At completion of Round 8, we ran back to COT.
MARY: Not enough time

Play time is over

Leave a comment

WARMUP: it’s sweep the leg. We did a burpee ladder instead on way to school drive. Starting with 1 worked our way up to 5 then back down performing the burpees at each light pole on way down Dave gibson, we also stopped every so often to perform exercises IC waiting for 6

THE THANG: short version of longest mile with using light poles, lunge walk to 1st pole, then bear crawl to 2nd then crab walk to 3rd.
We all picked up 6 before moseying to back of school by bottom of hill where YHC did not provide very clear instructions at start so had to run around and update pax as we went. but we started 11s with HR Merkins (10) and BombJacks (1) at last pole top of hill. Plan was to drop a pole each lap so it would get progressively shorter think the gazelles got up to round 6 or 7 but we still ran out of time, and a couple PAX got back a min or two late

MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Christmas party, lots of Saturday CSAUPS coming up, PnP tomorrow, HIM camp. We named hashbrowns

COT: yep!

A brick workout broke out in the midst of a Shield Lock discussion

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Took a lap around the COT parking lot performing karaoke, buttkickers, and highknees. Circled up close to my vehicle because we needed to grab some bricks. But, before each man grabbed his source of pain we performed 10xSSHinCadence, 10xWMinCadence, 10xCPsinCadence, 10xMNCsinCadence, and 10xMerkinsinCadence. Short mosey to the vehicle, popped open the tailgate, and everybody grabbed some bricks.
THE THANG: COT parking lot is marked as a football field. Started at the goal line and lunged walk to the 50yard line. Every time PAX went down into their lunge they were asked to perform a lateral raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10 yards and executed 10 Burpees.

Next, we moseyed to a nearby grassy area. Time for a Jack Web of pain. 1 Merkin – 4 OCs w/ bricks. We definitely felt the pain by the time we made it to 10 Merkins – 40 OCs w/ bricks.

Moseyed back to the 50yard line. Ask the PAX to reverse lunge walk back to the goal line. Every time the PAX went down in to their lunge they performed a front raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10yards to perform 10 BombJacks with the bricks.

Didn’t need to travel far for the next Jack Web of pain. PAX circled up and we started with 1 Squat – 4 LowSquatPulses. While pulsing PAX were asked to hold their bricks in a front raised position. Legs & shoulders were burning by the time we made it to 10 Squats – 40 LowSquatPulses. A lot of funny commentary regarding everyone’s pulsing technique and pulsing speed ( apparently I’m a slow pulser ).

Last, but not least, asked the PAX to lie down on their bellies for some Superman Poses. We held each pose for a 10 count by YHC ( apparently, I’m also a slow counter, blame it on my Southern upbringing ). 1st pose was arms straight out with bricks in hand and legs together, 2nd pose was arms in field goal position and legs spread slightly apart, 3rd pose was arms in airplane position with legs spread shoulder width apart, and 4th pose was arms in parachute position with legs spread wide apart. Performed 2 sets of each pose.
MARY: Had time for 15xAlternating Single Leg V-Ups and 30x Touch your toes crunches, of course, all exercises performed with bricks.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter serve tonight, the upcoming Jager CSAUP ( can’t wait for this one ), Rock Region’s 10 year anniversary, and a few others that I’ve failed to remember.
COT: ShowtoKnow

Ring Around the Parking Lot

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey and some other things
THE THANG: Dora – one partner ran in one direction while the other farmer carried two Cindy’s the opposite direction. Connected with the partner and did two burpees, switched the run for the farmer carry. Each time we met our partner increased burpee reps by two and switched the run and carry. Completed four laps in the parking lot for about a mile of run, mile of farmer carry split by each team and a total of 72 burpees by all. Hit the pull up bars for a series of three exercises: 3 pull ups, 6 leg raises, 9 bar taps/squats ran through this for about ten minutes.
MARY: Flutters until we couldn’t flutter and merkins til the six.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Yes.
COT: Many prayers and praises for all varieties.
