F3 Knoxville

THE SCENE: 39 and raining, a Beautiful Morning to be outside!
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER:  Free, open to all men, held outdoors, led by men who participate in the workout with no training or certification necessary, end with Circle of Trust.  I have no knowledge of your injuries, so modify as necessary to prevent injury.

WARM-O-RAMA:

• 20 SSH
• 10 Moroccan nightclub
• 20 Imperial Walkers
• 10 Arm circles front/back
• 10 Knoxville Cherry pickers
• Mosey one lap around the parking lot

THA-THANG:
Setup: 4 stations.  Separate the F3 waterproof cards into cardio, legs, abs, upper and place one group of cards at each station.  Don’t include the sprint cards.

Team up into 3+ PAX, one team per station.

• Each team flips a card and does the exercise x10 the face value (royalty value =10).  When done, discard and mosey/sprint to next station, rinse, repeat.
• Each team does cumulative reps.  When each PAX completes 10 reps, he adds his 10 to the last count shouted and shouts the new total and keeps on doing reps until the team reaches the target.
• If an ace is drawn by any group, they yell “Ace! 100 (name the exercise) 2 count! Starting Position…” and the one who yelled “Ace” leads everyone in 100 reps, 2 count.  (Everyone stops and does the 100 in cadence together, 2 count.  When the 100 are completed, discard the Ace, flip a new card, work that card.  The other Teams resume where they were in their station exercises.)
• Bear crawl and crab walks are to the next station.
• Scalability:  If your team finishes their reps and moves to the next station where a team is still accumulating reps, then work with them to finish their reps, when done they move to next station, but you remain at that station, flip a card and work that card.

MARY:
LBC’s and Pistol Crunches
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA: Done
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Get a cadence:  Traverse your limits and remember lessons learned.  Have men you trust to talk through decisions to help you not dig a hole too deep and to throw you a rope at times.  But that takes time.

Can you think of a time when a decision that was bad in hind sight may have gone better with input from men who you had taken time to get to know and trust?

F3 cadence – Fitness, Fellowship, Faith – workout have fun get better, talk with and watch each other, take a few minutes to listen to someone’s story once in a while.  Watch their fruit. Remember that every man is human with struggles.  Keep your guard up wisely, but look through it for legit HIM’s to connect with.  Team up with men who you trust by interacting with them over time.

F3Shieldlock –  Consider some non-workout focused interaction = Shieldlock is just a name, the connection of the men in the group is the substance.  I don’t think Shieldlock has to be in the gloom.

F3 Credo – “Leave no man behind and leave no man where you find him.”

Thanks for the discussion after the Word, you men always give me more to think about.
