WU: TTT, Imp Walker, Monkey Humpers

Shoulder  blaster (LBACs, Bat wings, Seal claps, Titty twisters)

Thang:   Get 2 Bricks

4 x 4 (Burpee to plank, 4 Merkins, 4 Mtn Clmb) x10 OYO

Nutcracker (lunge w/ 2 bricks start above head and click together between legs) from flag to end of tennis court and return.

Foxhole (WWI, roll over, Merkin) x10 OYO

Merkin Jack (using bricks) OC x 20

Vicious Circle (Burpees, Squats, Merkins) Run around parking lot while one of PAX does  exercise.  Repeat until all PAX complete.  Repeat with next exercise (x 3)

Mary:  Pickle pushers x20 OC , Pickle pounders x10 IC, Nolan Ryan (L&R) x10, Flutter Kicks x24

Thought this workout up right before the workout with assist from the F3 Nation Exicon page so it was really pulled out of my arse.  Turned out to be pretty taxing on the arms.   The PAX took it in stride with smiles (thank you sir, may I have another!).  The only regret was that Masterload’s 2.0s were not there to enjoy the festivities.  I was really thinking of breaking out the Batann Death March if they were there.  Saving it for another day.

FNGs:  None

COP:  LBACs x20 IC (fwd and reverse), Mountain Climbers x10 IC, PIF Burpees x10 OYO

The Thang:

Mosey to the block pile and get a block

The theme of the workout was upper body.  Each of the exercises engaged the arms in some way.

Routine was to perform a set of exercises at the flag with the block and then proceed to the 4 corners of Doty Park and perform an exercise at each corner. Rinse and repeat.

Flag Exercises:

Set 1: Blockees x 5 IC, Up&Overs x10 IC, Damn Its x20 OC

Set 2: Blockees x5 IC, Tricep Ext x20 OC, Curls x20 OC

Set 3: Blockees x5 IC, Ovhd Press x20 OC, Bent Over Rows x20 OC

Corner #4: Alt Shoulder Taps x20 IC

Mary: WWI Situps x25 OC, Flutter Kicks x20, High Plank

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Moleskin:  The Q has been busy building a brick patio so the legs were weak. So why not focus on the guns for the entire workout?   That was the plan.  I promised to make the workout “fun” in the preblast.   Hopefully the Pax thought my idea of “fun” was fun.  If not, their arms look a bit bigger now.

Weather: Low 70 and not humid – perfect for an ass-whooping.

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.”

Impromptu Maximum Destruction

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

Conditions: 42. Cold, breezy.

FNGs: nope.

COP:  Grab blocks, Squat Presses through the 5 Principles. If you’re getting up to work out at 0500, you should know why.

The Thang:

In Teams of 2-

300 Curls for the Girls

300 OH Press

100 WWII sit-ups.

One HIM does the work, the other takes a lap around the gravel lot.

Once all groups had completed, a PAX calls his least favorite exercise and moseys to the No Parking sign and back.

Some exercises included- heel taps, squat thrusters, burpees, OH Presses, WWI sit-ups. I’m sure I missed at least 1 other.

Mary: Sally. Led by Mayhem. She’s a total B.

Numberama: 8

Namerama: Fish n Chips, Repo, Old D, Swamp Fox, Mayhem, Easy In, Placebo, Wreck-It Ralph

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Ruck for hunger coming up- look for updates on Facebook. Holiday party coming up.

Devo: Leave no man behind, but leave no man where you found him. Check-in on your brothers. Blood, and friends. The holidays can be hard, and you never know what’s going on with people. A 30 second phone call can make all the difference in someone’s world. Don’t be a dick. You can afford some grace.

Moleskin:   That one felt good. It was cold, but we managed to keep moving the entire time.

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.

Moleskin:   The few times I have either Qed or attended a BC @ Accelerator we have met in the grass on the far side of the park near the gazebo.  Well there were kids practicing soccer there.  Would have been difficult to do a BC with them there so we relocated to the grassy area by where the blocks are stored.  My first time Qing 2 workouts in a day.  However, that wasn’t the greatest feat of the day.  Cheetah attended 3 BCs and a liquifaction.  BJDDAL (Bedrock-Jones DD, Accelerator and Liquifaction)  Dude is a stud.  Speaking of studs.  THREES COMPANY HELD PLANK FOR 4 DIFFERENT PLAYINGS OF THUNDERSTRUCK WITHOUT BREAKING PLANK ONCE!  A record that can only be tied.  Great work men.  Always enjoy posting at accelerator just rarely works out with my schedule.  It is a different animal working out in the afternoons.  I’ll take the sun not being out.    Thanks again for playing along gentleman!!

Announcements: Charleston stair climb June 19th

Devo: YHC gave testimony of the positive things F3 has done in my life.  Keep it going fellas.  A lot of people in this community needing to be reached.  Its up to you.

Moleskin:   This particular Q was the most hyped up on the final tour.  Waldo was recruiting like Dabo.  City and Swinger SCS’ed prior.  I knew that coming in.  So I was intentionally going slow into the park.  I pulled to the stop sign and looked right to make sure they weren’t there because you don’t want to be the guy that runs over your friends.  When I looked right I saw a heap of cars parked in the top parking lot.  There was also a line of cars pulling in behind me.  In that .25 mile ride back to the dog park only one of the cars that was behind me came my direction.  I pulled into the parking lot and there was no one in sight.  Then 2 others PAX joined me.  I knew something was up.  Right @ 0500 EVERYONE came running in playing Thunderstruck on a bluetooth radio.  It was a plan to surprise me and make me think no one was showing up.  However, I knew something was up and was ready to start @ 0500 with me, Placebo and Snips.  Everyone showed up and WORK was done.  Bedrock has been home for me for the last 4 years.  There have been many workouts that I’ve come in on two wheels due to my troubles with being punctual.  Countless jokes and “that’s what she said” comments.  Mumble chatter has been at an all time high.  Every man that has posted there has had in impact on my life in a way they may never know.  Thank you for accepting me and allowing me to lead.

Moleskin:   Time for a field trip.  Took advantage of the hour workout this morning and took a field trip to the concrete beast.  Jailbreaks are a good way to get heart rate up.  So are burpees.  We did a lot.  If I remember correctly Motherboard joined the ranks of people to make it through Thunderstruck without having to run.  Short list.  Thanks for the opportunity to lead
