COT:
Why does F3 love the color Black? because black is the color of discipline. Why? Because discipline takes place primarily in secret, invisible to all others. For example, the discipline to post is founded on a thousand small decisions made during the hours leading up to it, from your dinner, to your drinking, to your sleep, to your alarm clock. By the time you make it to the parking lot, 80% of the work is already done.

SSH x 25 (4 count)
Cherry pickers x 5 (4 count)
Tempo merkins x 10 (4 count)
Tempo squats x 10 (4 count)

The Thang:
Metric Workout #1
(Every man will need 1 CMU)

Set a timer for 30 minutes.
Complete as many cumulative reps as you can in that time.

The following list of exercises are performed in sets of 25 reps. After completing a set of 25 reps, put down your CMU, run 25 yards, do 2 burpees, return to your CMU, and continue.

Here are the exercises:

– 150 curls
– 125 heavy squats
– 100 OHP
– 75 CMU swings
– 50 Thrusters
– 25 Blockees
When you finish the Blockees, start back at the top with curls.

It will look like this:

25 curls → 25 yard run → 2 burpees → 25 yard run → 25 curls…repeat until 150 curls are finished, then switch to squats…etc.

Once through the entire circuit is 525 reps (burpees do not count toward total).

How many cumulative reps can you complete?

MARY:
Flutter kicks and snow angels while the 6 caught up to the group during the Nosey back to the flag.

COT:
Last Thursday I hosted the young professional group from church. There were approximately 28 of them in my home. I loved seeing the good time they were having and the depth of relationships between them because this is the group that my wife and I started 12 years ago and that we stepped out of 5 years ago. The group has had its share of struggles with participation since we left but it has great momentum now and will be a spiritual blessing to each of them as they age as well as to the church. I see it as a spiritual legacy for me.

3 John 1:4 ESV
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

What is your legacy? What will you leave behind if anything? Will it be with family, work, history and or the church?

Something for everyone
