Devo:

Eternal Justice

“But for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings. And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture. (NLT) ( Malachi 4:2 )

 

There are some injustices in this world that won’t be remedied in our lifetimes.  Some hurts won’t come fully undone, while we are in the land of the living. This may feel hopeless but thankfully not all hope is lost! God has an eternal plan that heals every broken heart and provides godly justice for all.  Trust that His eternal plan means healing for all who call Him their God

Moleskin:   Quotes of the day:  Old Flame: It s0455 what are doing here so early Sakrete?

Old Flame:  I can tell you right now.  I am not murdering any more bunnies.

Old Flame:  My Garmin says its 0545. Why are you still working?

Splinter:  Maybe his watch is off that’s why he’s always late.

Defib took his shirt off during BOM.  Old Flame said “Damn Defib you look GOOD man.  Like really good”

Sugar Mountain:  Yea Defib was my partner.  When you work out with me see what you look like.

Easy In: Next time we partner up I’m picking Sugar Mountain if it means I can look like Defib.

Old Flame during prayer requests/ praise reports:  Praise that Defib looks like that

Fish N Chips said something awesome about sperm and Spider Man but I can’t remember it.  Maybe he can help.

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

Conditions: High 70’s and humidity just won’t go away

FNGs: None on tap today

COP:  YHC put his favorite AC/DC song on repeat.  Thunderstruck.  During first part of workout the song will play.  At any point during that song PAX would assume the plank position and execute a merkin every time they said Thunder during the song.  One set of failure.  When the plank is broken you are done.  Join in with remaining PAX doing assigned exercise.

While song was playing:

1 burpee OYO; 10 Bobby Hurleys on Q

2 burpee OYO: 9 Carolina Dry Docks on Q

3 burpees OYO: 8 Sumo Squats

4 burpees OYO: 7 WW1 Situp

7 burpees OYO: 4 Carolina Dry Docks on Q

8 burpees OYO; 3 Sumo Squats on Q

10 burpees OYO: 1 SSH IC.

Now that you are warmed up.  Lets move.

The Thang:

Jailbreak to entrance to gravel parking lot.  YHC asked for a volunteer and Defib obliged.  Heading out from flag run at pace set by Defib for 90 seconds.  After 90 seconds halt and do 10 squats on Q and 10 merkins on Q.  Swinger set pace for 90 seconds.  After 90 seconds halt and do 10 squats and 10 merkins on Q.  Mad Dog set the pace for 90 seconds.  After 90 seconds halt and do 10 squats on Q and 10 merkins on Q.  Gruber set the pace for 90 seconds.  After 90 second halt and so 10 squats and 10 merkins.  Double Trouble set the pace for 90 seconds.  After 90 seconds halt and do 10 squats on Q and 10 merkins on Q.  Set up in 2 columns.  Indian run around circle where flag is and back out to entrance to gravel lot (90 seconds)  After 90 seconds halt and do 10 squats on Q and 10 merkins on Q.

Partner up with someone close to your speed.  From post beside entrance to gravel lot back to the flag.  Jailbreak race with your partner.  After each race alternate 10 squats on Q and 10 merkins on Q.

After all races were complete and gathering around the flag winners earned the right to stand around and watch the losers of the races do 5 burpees OYO.

Indian Run around gravel lot.

Mary: Thunderstruck plank merkins.  Play Thunderstruck by AC/DC again.  This time if your plank is broken run down to the light pole on right hand side and back.  Back in the fight.

Namerama: Defib, Double Trouble, Spooky (R), Manana, AC/DC, Gruber, Fish N Chips, Waldo, Swinger, High Stick, Green Bags, Easy In, Chum, Splinter, Mad Dog, Mayhem (R), Sakrete

Pledge and COT.  Yes we did that.  

Announcements: Rotating Saturday Q @ Bedrock led by High Stick;  Old Flame running the Charleston 100 in full gear starting tomorrow.

Devo:

Choose Grace

Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone. (NLT) ( Colossians 4:6 )

 

The words we choose in our everyday conversations tell the most about who we are.  If we choose a harsh tone and unkind words, it’s going to be hard for those around you to see God’s grace at work in your life. When we speak harshly it also makes it hard for those who love you to see you as a cherished child of God. Often resulting in others responding to us with negativity.  This is why it’s so important for us to choose grace in the way we communicate.  Be the one who ends the cycle of negativity in your relationships.  Let your words be a beacon of light to those around you

Moleskin:   YHC saw a workout that Green Bags did @ home where he ran for 90 seconds and stopped and did 10 merkins and 10 squats.  I 100% stole that.  YHC went to Tectonic Monday AM for a Hot Tub Labor Day Q.  I 50% stole the “warm up” from that.  Haven’t done the Thunderstruck routine in a while.  Always fun to work that in.  We are currently 5 hours post workout and I am already sore.  Great work today Gents.

Conditions: Muggy, but not too hot.

The Thang:
-Partnered up based on age (two youngest were partners, and pair up next two guys in age, all the way to the oldest).
-Did a modified Dora…one partner runs the loop that we ran during the warmup, the other partner does an exercise called by the Q…but we don’t count reps…we just do that exercise until I switch to a new one.
-Exercises were merkins, squats, flutter kicks…each round lasting about 6-8 minutes.
-After the flutter kicks, we circled back up and did SSH x25 IC.
-Partnered up based on birth date.
-Did another set of modified Dora w/ new partners…exercises were burpees, squat jumps, and LBCs.

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Saturday workouts are the closest thing we have to a convergence right now…so a good turnout is great to see.

Devo: Gave the Bedrock mantra.

Moleskin: I saw that this Q was open, and I had never Q’d outside Bedrock, so I decided to give it a shot.  The AO was a bit chaotic, with FiA having their Olympics and construction blocking off the horseshoe area, but luckily I was able to find a good loop to run to make the modified Dora work.  A good mix of guys from different AOs showed up, and hopefully they got their money’s worth.

Moleskin:   As we were arriving this morning 2 guys walked up and began introducing themselves.  One guy (Smuckers) was a true FNG.  His brother in law (Amnesia) brought him out.  He informed us he hadnt been out in a year or so.  At beginning of workout we went around the circle saying our F3 names so everyone knows who they are working out with.  Amnesia revealed he didn’t remember his name that was given when he first came out.  We decided as a team that renaming was in order.  And Amnesia was born.  Smuckers got his name because he said due to covid he had been out of work and all he does now is sit around the house and make his kids Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.  These guys are front of the pack guys.  Hopefully they come back quickly.  Welcome gents!

Mumble chatter was high this morning.  It always is when you get Fish N Chips in the mix.

Moleskin:   YHC has been away from Sunday Q’s and workout in general for the last several months on account of my work schedule.  When Floppy issued the February challenge I knew this would be my shot to fill the Q a running AO.  And by Q I mean show up, start talking with Hot Tub and have someone else say “Hey its 5 o’clock I’m going”.  To which I replied “Don’t die you can’t sue anyone”.  That is literally all I did to Q this.  The Creamer basically Q’s it self.
