    • 100-LBCs
    • 75-Squats (why don’t squats have a silly name??)
    • 50-Merkins
  3. Mosey’d back to the open field by the Volleyball net and played a little game of Retriever- Q punts soccer ball and which ever PAX gets their first gets to call out a workout, to make it fair each Pax can only retrieve once:
    • Gridiron selected SSH x 10
    • Alabama selected Freddy Mercury’s x 10

    • Ninja selected Arms Circles x 20

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Preacher talked about his recent move to Arizona, and how none of what has happened to him in the last few months would have been what he planned or thought he would do.  He had to walk through the valley of the shadow of death to end up where he needed to be.

THA-THANG: 25 Burpee Hill Races

2 Hims race against each other doing 10 Burpees at top and bottom of adjacent staircases with a final 5 burpees at the top of a hill that is 100 Meters away.   The remaining HIM’s engage in other various torture techniques such as

  • Crab Walks 25 yards
  • Bear Crawls 25 yards
  • Matching Burpees that the racers are doing
  • Bernee 25 yards
  • Sprint 25 yards
  • Lunge 25 yards

When one group of two hims finish their race, the next group of two HIMs pulls a burpee variation ball from the basket of burpee variation balls and commences their race.  Once everyone has raced, then the whole group races against each other for one final round.

MARY:
Push the burpee bucket back to the AO by taking turns doing a crab walk push, bear crawl push, bernee cary, mosey, side straddle (both sides).  Finish up with a Jail break.

Welcome Spotter – new FNG!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Capability Judgement Conviction – Please watch how you are prone to be judgmental not only of your wives looks but also of her accomplishments and capabilities. You might be aware of your tendency to judge visually but not only should you reject this attitude of the heart but also the judgmental attitude of their accomplishments.  Do not fall prey to the enemies (and worlds) comparison games – It is the way of death.  Choose life in the way of forgiveness, grace, and love.

Summerized all to well by Bartmans joke:

A man comes home and says to his wife when he comes home from work – “I’ve been at work all day and come home and the house is a mess and the laundry is not done – What have you been doing all day?” – To which she replies, “You’ve been at work all day and yet we’re still not rich – What have you been doing all day?”

MOLESKIN:
Apologies to FNG Spotter for a very steep ramp up to the burpee learning curve.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Congratulations to Judge Judy and all those who competed in the F3 Olympics

Merkins and Burpees at the Asylum

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

20 SSH, 15 Imperial Walker, 15 mountain climbers, 10 Peter Parker’s, 10 Spidermans (6″ Peter Parkers…newly coined?), 10 windmill
THA-THANG:
YHC did not devote enough time to planning, so we winged it a little. The basic idea was to focus on upper body with running to each area. We started each pain station with a variety of merkins followed by burpees and then running up a hill. We hit the hill by the launch point first, then cardiac, and finally Everest. We ended with Mucho Chesto before COT: 10 merkins, 10 diamond merkins, 10 wide arm merkins, 10 stagger left merkins, and 10 stagger right merkins.
