Introduction
The lower and upper loops at the park make a crazed figure eight, inspiring an 8-themed workout, especially in the rep counts: 8 or twice 8 (16) or even 18…in a slightly crazed fashion. Stations about every other bench to break up the mosey.
Warm-O-Rama
SSH, Hill Billy Rockettes, Abe Vigodas, Imperial Walkers, LBAC forward, Air Presses, Seal Claps, Pretzels, Overhead Claps, LBAC reverse, Merkins.
The Thang
8+8
Start with a mosey from flag CCW around the lower loop.
Pull up to the newish pull up stations; pull-ups.
Continue mosey back to flag to do some lunges.
Mosey from there CW around the upper loop to the corner by 3rd base.
Skip the dips and do more Merkins instead, before mosey some more.
Lots ‘o squats at the northeast corner before returning to flag for SSH.
Repeat the “8” again.
Move to dry spot for Mary: Monkey Humpers, Flutter Kicks, LBCs,
Australian Snow Angels, American Hammers, and some 8-count Doc I-Hate-Yous.

-Doc & family at scout camp now (and a busy weekend coming up).
-And other PAX not able to post lately.

YHC read the F3 mission and core principles, as a reminder. Memorizing these would be a good way to share with others concisely what it is all about.
“Our mission is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.”
“Core Principles: F3 workouts …
1-Are free of charge
2-Are open to all men
3-Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
4-Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
5-End with a Circle of Trust”
You know, I appreciate the ability to talk in the midst of the BD, sometimes, even if it’s mumblechatter…
