Introduction
Conditions were ideal, spirits were high, and then something went terribly wrong
Warm-O-Rama
Typical warmup nothing special. Maybe we spent a disproportionate amount of time on hamstrings. Yes. We did. Because sprints.
The Thang
Spartan 1-2-3 minus the 2 and 3
Partner routine like the spartan and Dora 123 had a Baby.
One partner sprints 50 yards (according to Wall Ball’s GPS)
And then walks back hwhile the other partner does burpees incessantly. Team needed to complete a total of 100 burpees.
As Spider Man walked back we finished the last ten as a PAX and then trotted out to meet him mid field. From there it went seamlessly (I thought) into Pearls on a String
This is where YHC gives precious pearls of goodness (30 rep exercises) separated by brisk moseying.
The pearls were as follows:
Merkins
Dips (on the due west facing curb in the turn lane to advertise to drive bys)
Box Jumps (discovered at this point the benches on the picnic tables are not in the best shape)
Crab Cakes
Broad Jumps
Knees to Elbows (back in the pavilion again. There was some nervous mumble chatter about potentially bringing the roof down)
Mosey back to the flag for circle of Mary
Jlo
Leg ups
V sit ups
Peter Parkers
Circle of Trust
Ended with a COT as all beat downs do. Today was an opportunity to take a fresh look at what F3 is and what it is for. The what and the why. The vision and mission. We exist to invigorate male community leadership. Bunch a sad clowns out there that need this group so that they can be elevated in their physical health, their thinking, and their impact. Let’s keep bringing folks and maybe guys will come that don’t come to the forge and maybe the one day a week thing will be less intimidating for some. Can we do this? Yes. Will we? Post next week and see.
Naked Man Moleskin
Such a privilege and honor to lead this amazing group of dudes this morning. You mean I get to lead YOU? Even if it was just for 45 minutes it was a ton of fun. I hope you keep coming back.
