Why are you out here at 7am on a Saturday??
What is F3?
F3 is a men’s workout group, with the mission to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.
What are our 5 core principles?
  • Are free of charge
  • Are open to all men
  • Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
  • Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
  • End with a Circle of Trust
The F3 Credo is: Leave no man behind, and leave no man where you find him.
The credo doesn’t just apply to our workouts. How are you going to lead today?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
With everything that has been happening in the world around I’ve been thinking about the hard conversations that we have with our 2.0s, our co-workers, and our neighbors. These conversations aren’t easy and our 2.0s will ask questions that we don’t have an answer to. I have avoided commenting and posting on social media because I would rather have these types of conversations in person just to be able to read body language and reactions. Within our families, these conversations are hard but necessary. We need to raise our 2.0s to choose to have the hard conversations, make the hard choices, do the hard things. As men of F3, we choose to do the hard thing each morning by getting up in the gloom and doing these crazy workouts. If we can do that, why can’t we men step up and lead these hard conversations in our families, our jobs, and our communities?

Make the hard choice no matter what the situation, it’s no more difficult than 100+ burpees.

THE GLOOM BELONGS TO US!

3/19/2020 Remote WOD

Welcome to F3 Knoxville’s Remote WOD#2.

Following in Steam’s example and using his words:

While this might not follow our typical beatdown at any given AO, hopefully this will provide a way for you to get after it, just like we normally do all together.

Wherever you find yourself at today, carve out some time and put in some work. Your F3 brothers around our region will be rocking this at different times throughout the day. Even remotely, there are still ways to lock shields and stay in the fight. Let’s get it done today High Impact Men!

THE SCENE: Thursday, March 19, 2020: 12am – 12am

  • Home, driveway, park, etc. Give yourself some room.
    • Not a gym.

Timeframe: This is on you. Hold yourself accountable just like you would at a normal F3 workout. Just because this is a virtual Q, it doesn’t mean you can’t call-out/push a battle-buddy, just gonna look different.

Safety-Brief: Obviously you’re doing this on your own volition. Push yourself just like you do at F3. Go ahead and get it in your mind that you’re not going to quit. Audibly tell yourself “I will not quit.”

    • I’m not a professional
    • Per usual – if you need to modify anything – do it. Like I said above, this is on you!

Equipment needed: A timer (stopwatch, cell phone, hourglass, sundial – if you are doing this not in the gloom)

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

  • Side Straddle Hops (SSH) 25x In Cadence (IC) (25 reps on a 4 count – or 50 if you don’t want to do a 4 count)

  • Imperial Walkers 20x IC (start with hands on head, elbows out)
    • 1 = lift left leg and lower right elbow by leaning head and shoulders towards left knee

THA-THANG:

This is an easy one to work through on your own. Set a 30 minute timer and see how many rounds you can do. (If you want extra, do this with your ruck).
Round 1 – 5 reps of each
Round 2 – 10 reps of each
Round 3 – 15 reps of each
