The Q ushered in March like a lion going for the double block solution.

WU: TTT, Monkey Humpers, SSH

THANG:  Grab 2 blocks, farmer’s carry, and follow the Q to the back parking lot.   Routine was to perform 10 of an exercise with block, cusak one of the blocks to the other end of parking lot, perform 10 of second exercise and return leaving block at other end.  Rinse and repeat (5 sets) with the Pax carrying the block back to start upon completing last set.

Exercise #1:      Damn Its / Curls for Girls IC

Exercise #2:    Overhead Press  /  Blockees

Exercise #3: Squats /

Farmer’s carry blocks back to flag, take a short lap around the tennis courts.

Double block routines:

Box Jumps x20 OYO  (modify with step ups if necessary)

Abyss Merkins x15 OC

Tricep Dips x20 OC

Stow blocks

Mary: WWI Situps x25 OC, Flutter Kicks x20 IC, Plank for 1 min.

Namerama, numberama, announcements, pledge, prayer requests

Moleskin: Surprise visit from Wambach.  Mobo inherited the Q on short notice and had to scramble to come up with something different.  When that happens, you never know what your going to get.   I think the 50 blockees resulted in some mental hate mail towards the Q.

Warmup:  TTT x10, Side Squats x10, Titty Twisters x 10, Pay It Forward Burpees x10

In solidarity with the Ukrainians, the PAX was tasked with slaying “The Bear” which is the symbol for Russia/USSR for centuries.

Bearpees:  Bear crawl in a straight line and do burpees on Q command

Russian Twists x 2o IC

Bears and Blocks:  Drag block while doing bear crawl to a specific location and back

Russian Twists x 2o IC

Bearmuda Triangle:  PAX lined up at one of three locations in shape of triangle (3 at each corner).  Do 10 Merkins, bear crawl to next corner, 10 merkins, bear crawl to next corner, 10 merkins, bear crawl back to starting corner, 10 merkins.

Namearama, Announcements, Pledge, Prayers

Moleskin: Had to focus on upper body and core after Tuesday’s Microwave leg punishment at Accelerator.  It seemed like a lot of time was spent in bear holds or bear crawls for some reason.  That does take a toll on the arms and shoulders.

Devo: James 4:17 “So for one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, it is a sin.”

Intro: Last minute sub for Chedda had Mobo scrambling for a meaningful workout.  After 3 years of Qing, Mobo decided to finally resort to doing a dora.

F3 Mission Statement: “To plant, serve and grow small workout groups, in order to reinvigorate male community leadership.” -Dred

Weather: workout worthy

COP: Mountain Climbers x 10 IC, LBAC x 20 IC, TTT x10 IC

Overhead Press (100 count)

WWI Situps (200 count)

Squats with block (300 count)

Numberama, Namarama, Annoucements, Pledge, Prayer Request

Moleskin: Tried to live up to a Chedda Tuesday workout.  The burpees added an interesting twist to the dora which was not well received by the Pax.    The saving grace was that it was February, not July.

Devo: Be careful out there.   Working out hard in extreme heat and humidity for long periods of time can get you in trouble.   Don’t “push through it” if you don’t feel well.  Heat stroke can affect even the most fit of athletes.   It is no joke.

Moleskin: It was time to leave the confines of Doty and see the world before the gloom takes over in the next few months.  We actually witnessed Defib’s legs! Yes, he wore shorts.  Go figure.  We put on a show for the diners at Five Loaves.  I am sure we became a topic of discussion.  F3 advertising at its finest.  We all looked like we came out of a lake when we were done.  Deceivingly humid.

Namerama: Placebo, Pink Slip, Defib, Motherboard

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Rotating Saturday workout at the Ditch.

Moleskin: Last minute substitute Q for Cheetah didn’t allow me to do my normal planning for the Q and with the thunderstorms I had to be very flexible.  With a good mix of arms, abs, and leg exercises, the periodic farmers carry really made the arms scream for mercy.  And yes the pay-it-forward burpees were cashed in with a bunch of sirens going off shortly after.  With Pink Slip gunning for the weight loss prize and opting out, there was plenty of bourbon balls for the Pax as their reward for a good push.  Some of the best Qs are spontaneous.
