Conditions: 34 and clear

FNGs: none:

Warm Up:

  • Mosey to various spots stopping to do exercises
    • Thru the tunnel
    • Bridges
    • Calf raises
    • Little baby arm circles

The Thang:

  • Go to block pile for coupons
    • Everyone hold low plank and one person at a time retrieves blocks and returns to block plank
  • Go to street with blocks and hold al gore while explaining game
  • Final square is by the stop sign
  • Take blocks to other stop sign and drop them off with the block die
  • Mosey around the block to the starting square
  • Teams each get a die. Roll exercise die, add up the numbers on the street square, and do the exercise that many times.
  • When finished roll the other die and move forward that any spaces
  • Roll the exercise die. Repeat until you get to the blocks we dropped off.
  • When your team gets to blocks switch to die with block exercises
  • First team to finish do running ladders from stop sign to the other team until that team finishes
  • Stow blocks

Mary: we barely had time for a 1 exercise.

Moleskin: YHC tried this weinke about a year ago. There was some tweaks to improve. There’s still work to be done. This weinke will work!

Devo: Yesterday, a large group/mob of Donald Trump stormed and raided the U.S. Capitol. There’s a lot to unpack in our nation. We all have different religious, political, etc. views. Bi-partisanship has done a lot to dictate the thoughts and actions of American citizens. Without calling any one side out I shared 2 Instagam posts from the andcampaign who looks at politics from a Biblical perspective, and left it at that.

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

Conditions:  43 degrees

FNGs:  None

COP:

SSH, TTT, LBAC, Moroccan Nigh Club, Hillbillies, Imperial Walkers

The Thang:

Grab a block and circle up for four cycles of exercise focused on arms, chest, legs, core, and cardio. We did five rounds with four to five exercise per round. The exercises included: Curls for the Girls, Chest Press, Goblet Squat, Big Boy Sit-Up with Block, Tricep Extensions, Merkins on the Block, Block Squat, LBCs, Lawnmowers, Diamond Merkins, Flutter Kicks, SSH, Sledgehammers, Tempo Chest Press, Hydraulic Squats, Military Crawls, and others…

Usain Bolt to close us out.

Mary:  Dying Cockroach, Superman

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo: At times, a man can reject Christ believing he is too sinful or too far gone to save. The Christmas story reminds us that Christ was born on earth in a stable and placed in a manger for a bed. A stable, where animals lived and a manger where they ate. Both disgusting places to live and sleep. We’re reminded that Christ lowered Himself, in humility, to be our savior. He has already brought Himself to our lowly state to provide us with salvation. No one is too sinful or too far gone to be saved by the grace He offers.

Moleskin: Good mumble chatter among the Pax today. We were reminded that we do curls for Milton’s wife and tempo curls for YHC’s wife. Also, we confirmed Milton’s wife digs legs. A good time was had by all.

The Thang:
After the pax each got a block, I explained that during the workout, anytime I said ‘Squatro’, that everyone would have to do 4 squats OYO (and if you happened to be by your block, do the squat with your block)…I pretty much said ‘Squatro’ after each of the exercises below (and disclaimer, much of this Q was improvised, so I may be misremembering some of the activities from this BC):

-Run around the parking lot.

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Fault Line will host this week’s rotating Saturday workout.  Repo announced a 420 mile Swamp Fox run; Ruck for Hunger on Nov 21. Christmas and Anniversary parties are being planned

Devo: Be ready…be prepared.  You never know when you’ll have to fill in.

Moleskin: This workout was inspired by my 5-year old son, who insists that the number 4 in Spanish is pronounced Squatro.  So I decided to use that to come out with a workout where we’d do 4 squats after pretty much any activity during the BC.  Overall, I think it went pretty well.

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

Conditions:  73 degrees

FNGs:  None

COP:

SSH, TTT, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Terrible Ts, Burpees

The Thang:

Mosey to Huger Park with three stops along the way:

– Stop 1:  5 Burpees, 10 WWII Sit-Ups

– Stop 2: 5 Burpees, 10 WWII Sit-Ups, 15 Pickle Pounders

– Stop 3: 5 Burpees, 10 WWII Sit-Ups, 15 Pickle Pounders, 20 Squats

At Huger Park, repeat the exercises from the last stop an dadd 25 LBCs to the end.

The PAX split into two squads and rotated between core exercises and pull-ups (Three rounds: 15, 10, 5 while PAX did core exercise until the other group returned)

Close out our time at the park with 10 Burpees

Mosey back to the AO with two stops along the way due to time contraints:

– Stop 1: 5 Burpees, 10 WWII Sit-Ups, 15 Pickle Pounders, 20 Squats

– Stop 2: 5 Burpees, 10 WWII Sit-Ups, 15 Pickle Pounders

Goose Step 30 yards then jail break sprint back to the AO.

Mary:  WWI Sit-Ups, Flutter Kicks, High Plank w/a few Merkins for good measure

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo:  Referencing the resurrection of Lazarus from the dead, YHC shared with the PAX that we are all entombed in our sin and shame. Jesus calls us forward into the light. We can’t save ourselves, it is only by His power and His grace. Let’s not stay in our sinful shape, humbly allow Him to rescue us.

Moleskin:  The path to Huger Park and back is a memorable one for YHC. I took a group of PAX on that path on my first Q a little over four years ago. After a long layoff, this seemed like a good route on which to lead the PAX today. The PAX worked hard, college football mumble chatter was present, and everyone left better for being out this morning. Thanks for the opportunity to lead!

This one seemed to be more of an upper-body smokefest than I anticipated when drafting it up in the Q Cave. I’m still not sure why. But it was. Whatever the reason, 17 men seemed to be in consensus on that fact at Bedrock on Thursday.

Conditions: Cool and dry. Lovely.

COP

  • SSHx2
  • Mtn Climber x 10
  • Imperial Walker x 10
  • LBACs

The Thang

Head out of the Country Club and hit the trail along Dorchester Road to the Marshalls parking lot. Partner up for a Dora 1-1-1-1 (100 merkins, 100 Carolina Dry Docks, 100 merkins, 100 Carolina Dry Docks). We then executed a Usain Bolt, where inexplicably many of the PAX chose more merkins. Return to the CC via the trail for Mary.

Count-a-rama / Name-a-rama / Pledge / COT / Socially distanced grouping of man.

Devo: How do we better execute F3’s mission to be a group that is open to ALL men?

Moleskin:

With Covid-19 upon us we did our best with social distancing, no sharing coupons, and nodoing partner work. This was a variation from another wienke I had for St. Patrick’s Day, that allows everyone to go at their own pace and choose their own destiny.. It started as a Chadwick Boseman themed work out, but that was tricky, so we broadened it to the Avengers. Glad to see good numbers at my favorite BC AO. Welcome, FNG Baby Fat.

The men of Bedrock were treated on Tuesday to a sampling of the greatest music to grace God’s Earth: MY music. Nine songs of pure glory, each one crafted with care by Masters of Rock. When the speaker crapped out we improvised by playing the tunes through the car stereo. Just like high school, minus the mullet and substituting the sporty little coupe for a Hyundai sedan.

Macklemore was not featured in my playlist due to his being a huge, untalented douche.

Conditions: Cloudy, mid 70s.

The Thang

Do the exercise listed next to the song while it’s playing, AMRAP style. When you need a break, take a lap around the gravel parking lot.

  • Welcome To The Jungle: Overhead Press
  • Kickstart My Heart: Dammits
  • Machinehead: Monkey Humpers (no block)
  • Hey Man Nice Shot: Curls for the Girls
  • Starseed: Freddie Mercurys (no block)
  • Midlife Crisis: Squats with Blocks
  • She Sells Sanctuary: Merkins (on block or off – PAX choice)
  • Enter Sandman: American Hammers (no block)

Devo: 

Many churches are moving to online because of the virus. Remember, church isn’t a one time a week event, it’s a gathering of believers for worship. However, you do it, just do it.

Also, if everyone in your house is stuck inside, take a chance to spend some time with them. How often do you get to have lunch  together? This is your chance to take time and make memories.

 

Moleskin:

With Covid-19 upon us we did our best with social distancing, no sharing coupons, and not doing partner work. Well those were all of the things YHC planned on doing. If we can’t come up with other workout ideas, then the virus wins. Luckily, it’s St. Patty’s Day and YHC loves a themed weinke. Today was a chance for the Pax to choose their own destiny when hunting down the leprechauns. Sometimes, they’d get away, and other times they’d fight back. A hefty amount of cardio, and how ‘bout them monkey humpers?
