Toto’s revenge

  • When: 20181221
  • QIC: Toto
  • The PAX: Recount, Cisco, Hanging Chad


2018-12-21 by Recount Leave a Comment

Disclaimer: Not Given no new guys

Warmup: Swim 10 Lengths

The thing before the thang: Toto wasn’t feeling well. His throat was sore, and he was extremely congested. He never thought about not showing up. Remember your word means something. Not just in F3, not just at work, but in everything you do.

Sidenote: Cisco overslept, but he still came. Being late is bad, but not showing up at all is worse.

Thang: 

10 lap warm
4 Motorboat
4 Arms only
4 Dolphin kick
4 Closed fist
4 Underwater

Then we did 11’s!

The exercises were swimmer push up and pull-up.
Sprints set of ten
6 recovery
6 Butterfly 
6 recovery

Intro:  Earlier in the week, Goose dared the PAX to show-up at Seismic both Tuesday AND Thursday for a 1-2 kick in the nuts from back-to-back Q’s by Stalker and Goose. These boys ain’t scared – they showed-up 34 strong, and many of them donning a ruck for added suckitude. YHC wanted a heavy BC that pullups, blocks, and tires would surely deliver.

Disclaimer:  Given. 2 FNG’s. Welcome Shutterfly (formerly Obed Danjoint) – originally from Haiti, married with 2 kids, and a photographer, which explains his F3 name. Welcome Gosling (formerly Lucas Clark) – a 2014 Citadel grad, who is reporting for Marine Corps OCS on January 6. Gosling was EH’ed by Goose, which also explains his name.

Warmup: Squats/monkey humpers, hand release merkins, calf raises

Thang: Pair-up, grab a block each and 1 tire/team.

Pullups x10, OHP x3 for each pullup less than 10.

Flip tire to other side of AO, partner does 1 burpee for each flip.

Derkins on tire x15, situps inside the tire x15.

Flip tire to other side of AO, partner does 1 burpee for each flip.

Rinse and repeat 4 trips across the AO (each side twice).

With partner, situps inside the tire with block x15.

Parade coupons around the armory so that no coupon touches the ground.

On opposite side of the armory, block situps x15, curls x40, OHP x30, lawnmower x20 (each side).

Parade coupons around the armory so that no coupon touches the ground. Stow coupons.

Pullups x5.

Devo: “Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must be the slave of everyone else. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Mark 10:43-45.

We would all be better off if our “leaders” in government understood this concept.

Moleskin: During the requests for prayers, Muscadine related that his brother’s father-in-law had a heart attack, but fortunately the fire department was already on the scene fighting a wild fire. Always the educator and Fire Chief, Probie suggested that “you do not need to set a forest fire to get emergency personnel to respond. Just call 911 and we’ll come.”

Devo: No devo was given but here is some scripture for you now.

No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Hebrews 12:11

Remember how we live matters. Our work ethic is important. It starts with the small things like making your bed, cleaning up after yourselves, exercising. All of these require discipline. I am thankful for this group for pushing me to do more for myself, my family and my community. Remember it will be unpleasant at times even painful, but if we persevere we reap a harvest like no other.

Devo: It’s a busy time of year where every day can get packed with something. We think of it as a time for vacations, but really it’s not all too relaxing. Be aware of your spouse and give them time to relax. Don’t forget about yourself. Find time to relax. It does no one any good if either of you or both of you are drained.

Moleskin: YHC was pleasantly surprised by the turn out today. It’s nice to see a variety of men wake up and get the blood flowing. As YHC didn’t start with SSHs, and couldn’t remember the first exercise without looking at his weinke the BC started with some great mumble chatter. That and layers of clothes went away and the thang started. All good signs.

Quote of the Day:  so many 5 guys in my mouth references to count. It just slides out of your mouth when KY is around. Feel free to share your favorite in the comments.
