Party of 2

Date – 8/1/2019
Time – 0530
AO – Higgins
Pax – Nader
QIC – Wilson

On Ruck days, The Thang is the warm up.

There is a distinct advantage to a rucking workout over the usual beat down: I can actually engage in Mumblechatter. In the midst of a heavy workout, the focus is on BREATHING!!

And it’s not unusual for me to talk to myself when I’m rucking alone. But, WOW!, having another HIM going stride for stride and carrying on conversation, that just elevates the experience to a whole other level.

Post ruck:

  • PVC workout
  • Front to back
  • Side to side
  • Hip hinges
  • Twisters

Bear crawls Monkey walks Deep squats Tail gate dipsDon’t worry. Nader has not taken your place. You can still come join us. Then we’ll be a party of 3. Then a party of 4. Then….

A Team OF Leaders, Not With Leaders

Date – 7/20/2019

Time – 0700
AO – DeHavilland

Pax – Koolaid, Crockett, Faucet, FNG (Ken), Phone Home, Bubble Boy, Elroy, Zebra, Sugar, FNG) Terence, Wilson.

Q – Koolaid, Crockett, Faucet, FNG (Ken), Phone Home, Bubble Boy, Elroy, Zebra, Sugar (from Johnson City, TN), FNG) Terence, Wilson.

F3 is known for workouts rain or dry, heat or cold. We’ll even workout when the scheduled Q can’t make it! How’d that work? Well, since F3 is an organization OF Leaders, YHC declared everyone Q for the day.

Mosey up the trail.

Warm up – 20 SSH IC

The Thang:

YHC assuming the Q of Q, started our POAS (Pearls On A String) with Merkins. We would mosey around the trail (the string) stopping frequently (because YHC really doesn’t like running) to engage in the Pearls (a.k.a, COP (Circle of Pain)). Each Pax would assume the Q by announcing the exercise. Reps were determined by a roll of the dice (really!). Exercises were as follows:

Faucet – Imperial Walkers
FNG/Ken – Zombie Kicks
FNG/Terence – Big Boy Sit Ups
Koolaid – Bear Crawls
Phone Home – Overhead Claps
Zebra – Squats
Bubble Boy – Lunges
Sugar – Vertical Hip Thrust
Crockett – Knerkins
Elroy – Burpees (we hit 30 of these with a bit ‘o luck!!)

After we all had a turn, the more fit Thoroughbred still needed to run, but the Pack Mules were wilting a bit from the extreme heat. So as Faucet expressed the desire to run, YHC agreed it would be a good thing to let those who could run wild to do so. Instantly Faucet became the Q of Qs of a separate group while the remainder focused on core exercises (modified Bruce Lees).

Adding to the excitement of the day: Crockett began his F3 journey in early June (joined by his brother, Phone Home), but expanded his reach by having two FNGs posting: Ken, his dad, and Terence, his son. Three generations. It’s a beautiful thing to see.

YHC,

Wilson
