Moleskin:   Great banter this morning! PAX discussed various events we’ve done in the past as a way to help prepare our brothers going through the Sheepdog event in a couple of weeks. Fish debated, out loud, what he should fit in his ‘sack’, and noted that weather would have a big impact on how much room there would be.

2021-10-15 by Manana

Conditions: Low 70’s

FNG: None

COP: None

The Thang: PAX rucked their way to the bridge and performed the following exercises:

Squat x10 OYO
Ruck Swings x10 OQ

PAX then lunge walked their way from one end of the bridge to the other, before continuing to ruck to the upper parking lot, through the gate, to the concreate stadium seating.  Each member of PAX spread out along the bottom row and performed Step-Ups x5 each leg, and Squats x10, before moving to the next row.  There were three rows total.  PAX then made a lap around the building until all PAX were finished.

PAX then rucked along the backside of the park passing the traffic circles, stopping at the palm trees.  At the first set of palm trees, PAX performed 1 Curl for the Girls.  At the second, they performed 2 Curls for the Girls, etc.  There were 12 trees, and 12 sets of Curls for the Girls.

PAX then rucked to the wiffle ball field and lined up at home plate.  The exercises were as follows:

Home Plate – Squats x10 OYO
First – Ruck Swings x10 OYO
Second – Overhead Press x10 OYO
Third – Curls for the Girls x10 OYO

Then PAX made their way back to home plate before taking a lap around the field.  Once all PAX were finished, they rucked from the field, down the bridge, left around traffic circle, then back to the flag.

Mary: LBC x20 IC and Flutter Kicks x20 IC

Numberama: 6

Namearama: Manana, Wreck-it-Ralph, Defib, Cornwallis, Easy In, Mayhem

Pledge & COT: Complete

Devo: Always be prepared for what life throws at you, like having 6 members of PAX instead of the 1 or 2 you expected.  Also, old keys often do not open new locks.  You may think you have a plan of attack for an issue due to past experiences, but often you have to change your methods.

Announcements: Saturday workout and upcoming events.

Moleskin: Nice to see Defib back in action.  Kudos to him for lapping everyone in their ruck around the ball field, and deciding to do Merican’s IC while the other PAX did LBCs.  Also, kudos to everyone who showed up this morning.  Having 6 PAX for a Friday Magnitude is a big deal when YHC expected to be alone, or have one maybe two PAX show up.

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions: Mid-60’s. Nice

FNGs: nope. Just an OG.

COP:  Discuss Q options.

The Thang:

Inspired by the ‘Bluey’ episode of the same name.

Grab a balloon and head to the wiffle ball field.

Hit the balloon up in the air.

Run to a baseline and do a push-up. Rinse and repeat.

You only get to 1 hit, then the other person hits.

If the balloon hits the ground, it’s 10 merkins for everyone. Rinse and repeat.

After 10ish minutes, we took a walk around the upper parking lot.

Rinse and repeat Keepy Uppy with squats instead of merkins.

Ruck back to the flag.

Total 1 mile rucked.

Mary: no time.

Numberama: 2

Namerama: Double Trouble, Wreck-it Ralph

Pledge and COT

Announcements: None

Devo: replace with devo

Moleskin:   This episode of F3 is called- Keepy Uppy. It was inspired by the ‘Bluey’ Episode of the same name. Linked for your enjoyment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJkn-r-rJJY . If you have youngish kids, you’ve probably come across this show. Each episode is less than 8 minutes, and covers a lot of real world stuff. We should aspire to be more like Bandit.

This also looked a lot better in my head than in actual practice. If we get 4 or more PAX, merkins are probably going to be the go to. This one will be back!
