THE SCENE: 61 and clear… Here comes summer
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
This is the best job every, since I’m neither a professional or paid, yall can’t fire me. As much as you might want to after you do this workout. In celebration of my VQ 1 year anniversary, we’re enrolling in college again, so we can progress through the years and Graduate! A year of F3 has had me feeling like I’ve graduated .. in a sense..
WARM-O-RAMA:
SSH, Cherry Pickers, Empiracle Walkers. While moseying to the “Freshman Wall”, do alternations of forwards and back crab walks, bear crawls and Gorilla shuffles (and a bernie or two).
THA-THANG: College
- 25 Merkins + Freshman HILL
- 50 Squats + Sophomore Hill
- 75 Freddy Mercuries + Junior Stairs
- 100 Burpees + Senior Stadium
TLDR;
At the CMU (aka Freshman) wall, harken back to when you were a freshman. Just doing a pushup or finding a class was a challenge. So for freshman we keep it simple.
25 Merkins and run around wall.
Recollect that when certain people would for the first time, spend a full year at the dorms, eating potatoes and carbs for three meals a day, their thighs ended up being a bit large.. So we did a larger (from bottom to top) hill and
50 Squats + Sophmore Hill
Then, as a junior you were more refined, you were getting the hang of classes, and getting through the “CORE” classes as well as some of your major classes.. so:
Run the Junior Hill Stairs and do 75 (four count) Freddy Mercuries
Then, in preparation for the real world your major courses were kicking your tail, it was and is a long grind, you did what you had to, to reach the graduation finish line.. so
Run the Senior Stadium hill and follow it up with 100 Burpees. Break-em up into sets of 15, then 10, and find a battle buddy to do whatever you can to graduate.
MARY:
In the spirit a of leave no man behind, we helped two HIM’s push through the last 20~30 burpess and made sure that everyone graduated.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
As you drop balls today whilst you try to do everything that is on your plate, think about how it’s ok. Lay that todo list at the feet of Jesus and plead that he helps you prioritize them. You can not do everything, and it’s ok. There are not enough hours in the day and it’s impossible to please everyone. Step by step is how you do it. No matter if it’s a 100 burpees, progressing through the tough college years, or a mount Everest of todo items.
Congratulations to all HIMS who graduated today!
MOLESKIN:
Ouch, I can’t move my arms.
